Minutes:

The Planning Portfolio Holder received a report comparing the actual revenue and capital expenditure to 31 July 2009 for the Planning Services Portfolio with the annual budget for the year ending 31 March 2010.

 

Referring to paragraph 7 of the report, the Corporate Manager (Planning and Sustainable Communities) said that the Planning Service had dispensed with two posts.  He added that the Council was likely to receive a lower Planning Delivery Grant in 2009-10, while appeal costs would probably rise, partly as a result of expensive hearings relating to wind farm applications.

 

The Planning Portfolio Holder noted the report, saying that it reflected the difficult economic conditions facing the Council both now and for the next few years.
