Minutes:

Councillor Swaddle introduced this report and explained that the Council’s discretionary fees and charges are reviewed annually as part of the Council’s wider budget setting processes.  The review this year has focused on ensuring that charges are increased in line with inflation and income received continues to cover the cost of delivering fee paying services.

 

In a small number of exceptions, a different approach is proposed whereby charges either remain the same or increase above inflation and where parking legislation provides a different rationale. The reasons for these exceptions are covered within the main report.

 

Resolved: Cabinet agree the changes to fees and charges as outlined in the report, agree that authority be delegated to the to the Executive Director for Finance and Resources, in consultation with the relevant cabinet member, to approve any changes required in light of consultation feedback and agree the Fees and Charges Policy.
