(Report of Director of Planning, Housing and Environmental Health)

 

Members were updated on a number of matters related to the Development Management function during the current year.

 

It was reported that the ongoing work, as set out in the report, would ensure that all functions undertaken by the Development Management team continued to meet all statutory duties and requirements.  In addition, all these services were managed within existing budgets. 

 

Members commented on the quality of the technical advice provided by Officers which had resulted in a successful record of defending planning appeals and the Borough Council consistently performing above national targets.

 

Following consideration by the Planning and Transportation Advisory Board, the Cabinet Member for Strategic Planning and Infrastructure resolved that:

 

-        the contents of the report be noted; and

 

-        the provision of excellent technical advice, service and expertise on a range of planning issues be recognised and appreciated
