Issue - meetings

Mrs Angela Woodhouse, the Head of Policy, Communications and Governance, introduced the Policy and Resources Quarter 3 Performance Report to the Committee.

Mrs Woodhouse outlined that performance had been positive overall, with 67% of indicators achieving their target. However there were several indicators which had missed their target, one of them being the number of affordable homes delivered (gross).

In response to a question from the Committee Mr William Cornall, the Director of Regeneration and Place, confirmed that the Council had committed to drafting a new Supplementary Planning Document which aimed to increase the supply of affordable housing in the borough.

The Committee requested the methodology used for the indicator ‘percentage of land and highways with acceptable levels of litter’ be circulated to the Committee after the meeting, as it felt that no amount of litter was an acceptable level of litter.

Mrs Woodhouse confirmed that she would investigate the reasons for the decrease in litter reports attended to, and whether it was linked to the volume of reports that had been made online. Mrs Woodhouse confirmed an update would be circulated to the Committee by email.

RESOLVED:

That the summary of performance for Quarter 3 of 2017/18 for Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) be noted.

Note: Councillor Garland arrived during consideration of this item.
