This report provides an update against our Key Priority Performance Targets for 2017 to 2018, under our new Corporate Plan.

Decision:

The Committee:

(1)            Considered the performance reported in Annexe 1 and did not identify any areas of concern

(2)            Considered the actions that had been proposed where performance was a concern

Minutes:

The Committee received and considered a report which provided an update against the Council’s Key Priority Performance Targets for 2017 to 2018 as set out in the Corporate Plan.

The report detailed one target that had not been achieved, relating to supporting businesses in the local economy, as set out in the table below.  The Committee noted the clarification of the target description to read ‘No more than 10% of major planning applications determined…’, and that there were 29 major applications determined, 4 of which had been allowed at appeal, one more than the maximum allowed.

 

Not Achieved

Action Identified

No more than 10% of major planning applications determined allowed at appeal (using the two-year rolling assessment period defined by the government)

We are working with the LGA to conduct a peer review in September.  This will address concerns and include actions on how this target could be achieved.

It was also noted that the key priority objective of supporting businesses and our local economy would be achieved not only through the development of ‘town centre sites’ but also the development of sites across the borough. 

Accordingly the Committee:

(1)            Considered the performance reported in Annexe 1 and did not identify any areas of concern

(2)            Considered the actions that had been proposed where performance was a concern
