CABINET FORWARD PLAN

 

What is the Cabinet Forward Plan?

 

The Cabinet Forward Plan is a list of all non-key and key decisions the Authority intends to take during the next four month period.  The Plan is updated monthly on or around the 14th of each month and is available to view on-line at www.york.gov.uk

 

What is a non-key decision?

 

For the purposes of the Plan, a non-key decision is defined as a ‘decision of normal importance’ which:

 

·                 the Cabinet can collectively take as set out in Part 3 of the council’s constitution

 

·                 which any Cabinet Member can take individually in line with the Council’s Scheme of Delegation

 

What is a key decision?

 

A key decision is defined as a decision which is likely:

 

·                 to result in the Council incurring expenditure, or making savings, which are significant having regard to the Council’s budget for the service or function to which the decision relates i.e.:

 

           make a saving of more than 10% of the budget for a particular area  - or be more than £500,000

           require spending that is more than 10% of the budget for a particular area - or be more than £500,00

 

·                 to be significant in terms of its effects on communities

 

In addition to elected Councillors, chief officers can also take key decisions in line with the Officers Delegation Scheme as set out in Schedule 3, Part 3 of the Council’s Constitution

 

 

 

What information does the Forward Plan contain?

 

Each issue entered in the Forward Plan lists:

 

·                 The history of the issue in relation to the Forward Plan

·                 What consultation will be undertaken prior to a decision being made

·                 The name and contact details of the chief officer responsible for the issue and the forthcoming report

·                 The date of the meeting at which a decision is due to be taken

·                 The wards which will be affected by any decision taken

 

If I have a query about an entry on the Forward Plan, who do I contact ?

 

Wherever possible, full contact details are listed in the individual entries in the Forward Plan.  If you are unsure how to make contact or have any general enquiries about the Forward Plan, please ring Democratic Services on Tel No. 01904 551031

Highway encroachment, Rural West

Description:

 

Purpose of the Report: In 2021 and 2022, the local Parish Council contacted City of York Council (CYC) to ask CYC, as the highway authority, to investigate a possible highway encroachment issue. CYC officers have investigated the issue and have identified an encroachment issue.

Under Section 130 of the Highways Act 1980, the Highway Authority has the duty to assert and protect the rights of the public to use any highway for which they are the highway authority, including any roadside verges.

This report presents a summary of the evidence collated by officers, describes the legal background to any enforcement action that the Council may decide to take, and provides options for the Executive Member to consider when determining the next steps to be taken by CYC as the highway authority.

The Executive Member will be asked: To determine the next steps to be taken by CYC as the highway authority for this encroachment case.

Description:

 

Purpose of Report: To produce a clear policy statement as what the Social Model of Disability means in terms of the how the council will communicate, engage and deliver services to residents. This report will also contain an update on the work of the York Access Forum (YAF) and the move to appoint an independent Chair to take the work of YAF forward.

This will provide an update following the following elements of the Council Motion approved by full Council on October 20th 2022, at which the following was resolved:

·         To adopt the Social Model of Disability and embed it into every area of its working, operation, policy and practice, including in how it communicates;

·         To review the extent to which disability awareness training, inclusive and universal design training and disability equality is embedded across the organisation in how the council delivers services, making recommendations as appropriate;

·         To commit to genuine co-production on all council developments, where disabled people’s views are incorporated alongside those of appropriate professionals when considering inclusion and accessibility;

·         Upon the appointment of an Access Officer, to convene a quarterly Access Forum, resourced so that it will work in an entirely inclusive and accessible way, supporting a genuine commitment to co-production.”

The Executive Member will be asked: To approve the policy statement on implementing the Social Model of Disability at CYC, note the YAF update and the next steps in appointing an independent Chair of YAF.

The date for this item was changed to the decision session scheduled for 29 January because after early conversations with members of the Disabled Community it has been decided to delay this report to enable further consultation ahead of publication; This has since been amended to 24 January for administrative reasons due to change in date of the decision session.

Construction Skills and Retrofit

Description:

 

Purpose of the Report:
To outline the need for a new Construction Skills Initiative (CSI York) to support the development of local employment opportunities resulting from key housing and employment sites in the Local Plan and from the work needed to retrofit domestic and commercial properties across the city if York is to meet our carbon reduction targets.

To set out two projects responding to these two drivers, which Executive have already agreed in October 2023 to support through UK Shared Prosperity Fund (UKSPF). These represent a short term pilot with potential for delivery across the York and North Yorkshire region. In future, they might then be supported by the Mayoral Combined Authority through future UK Shared Prosperity Fund (UKSPF) and gainshare. These two projects aim to increase the local supply of appropriately skilled and qualified employees and businesses that respond to growth in demand.

Funding of £3.37m has recently been awarded by Innovate UK for a project to develop a Retrofit One Stop Shop for York (ROSSY), with City of York Council as lead partner and delivery for 21 months from February 2024. This project is predominantly designed to develop demand for domestic retrofit, complementing the supply-side measures in CSI York. The two initiatives will work together to address our climate change and economic challenges, and the report recommends delegations from Executive to the Corporate Director of Place to enable swift implementation.

The Executive will be asked to:
• Endorse the York Construction Skills Initiative.
• Note the progress made on developing a Construction Skills hub.
• Note the successful application to Innovate UK for the Retrofit One Shop York project and delegate further decisions on implementation to the Corporate Director of Place.
