Minutes:
Members received a report which presented the 2008/09 Service Plans for the City Development & Transport, Planning & Sustainable Development, and Resource & Business Management sections of the City Strategy Directorate for approval
Members commented that the 100% target for indicator C4 (% of Building Control customers satisfied with the service) was overambitious and also suggested that the target for indicator VH37 (% of people satisfied with the condition of roads and pavements in York) should be increased, given the additional funding allocation agreed in the budget for 2008/09.
Members highlighted that sickness absence targets needed to be set either at a Directorate or a service plan level, but not both, to ensure consistency. They also expressed the view that more ambitious targets needed to be set for BVPI 11a (% of top 5% of earners who are women) and BVPI 11b (% of top 5% of earners who are from an ethnic minority) and that this should be done at a corporate level.
