Agenda item

To receive a report from the Interim Corporate Performance and Improvement Manager providing Members with an annual review of the Council’s performance against the Corporate Plan, service objectives and targets for 2021/2022. 

The Group had before it, and NOTED, a report * from the Interim Corporate Performance and Improvement Manager providing Members with an annual review of the Council’s performance against the Corporate Plan, service objectives and targets for 2021/2022.

Discussion took place regarding:

·         Junction 27 and why it was still being referred to as the ‘Eden Project’? Government funding had been provided towards the site. There had never been any question of a Compulsory Purchase Order. A new planning application was being prepared.

·         Officers should be congratulated for the exceptionally good rates of Business Rate collection.

·         The Performance report was missing targets in relation to social and affordable rented housing. These had links to the Housing Strategy and needed to be reflected.

Note: * Report previously circulated and attached to the signed minutes.
