RESOLVED:
That Committee:
1. Noted the importance of addressing the shortfall of pool water space in the city.

Recommended that the Strategy, Finance, and City Regeneration Committee:
3. Agreed in principle to the development of a new swimming pool at Withdean Sports Complex, as set out in paragraph 3.18.

Fees and Charges 2024-25
|
||
|
|
Ward Affected: |
All Wards |
|
|
|
RESOLVED:
That Committee:
1. Agreed the proposed fees and charges for 2024/25 as set out within the report.
2. Agreed the proposed fees and charges in paragraphs 3.4 - 3.15 relating to Pre-Application Advice, Planning Performance Agreements and S106 Deed of Variation, to be implemented with immediate effect in the current financial year 2023/24 allowing for lead in time to update systems, charging methods and notice periods.
3. Delegated authority to the Executive Director of Economy, Environment & Culture (in relation to paragraphs 3.4 - 3.30), to change fees and charges as notified and set by central Government during the year.
Note: If the above recommendations are not agreed, or if the committee wishes to amend the recommendations, then the item will need to be referred to the Strategy, Finance & City Regeneration Committee meeting on 8th February 2024 to be considered as part of the overall 2024/25 budget proposals. This is because the 2024/25 budget proposals are developed on the assumption that fees and charges are agreed as recommended and any failure to agree, or a proposal to agree different fees and charges, will have an impact on the overall budget proposals, which means it needs to be dealt with by Strategy, Finance & City Regeneration Committee as per the requirements of the constitution. This does not fetter the committee’s ability to make recommendations to Strategy, Finance & City Regeneration Committee. |
