The Chief Operating Officer and the Assistant Director, Policy & Strategy, presented a report which detailed the development of a 10-year Strategy and Policy framework comprising the Climate Change, Economic and Health and Wellbeing 10 year strategies and the emerging 10 year City Plan.  Members were asked to review the strategies and recommend that Council adopt the framework.

 

The three inter-dependent strategies had been developed after an extensive 18-month programme of resident, business and stakeholder engagement and were informed by existing and emerging national and local policies, as set out in the report.  A summary of resident feedback was attached at Annex A.  The three strategies had been made available to view online as Annexes B, C and D respectively.

 

The Chair thanked all those involved in developing the strategies, which responded to a series of challenges facing the city including integrated care, levelling up and climate change, and would guide future work in achieving long-term ambitions.  In supporting the recommendations, the Executive Member for Environment & Climate Change highlighted York’s award of a ‘A’ Rating for climate action leadership by the Carbon Disclosure Project.  In response to matters raised under Public Participation, officers confirmed that they were looking at the data modelling but needed to be sure that a ‘bottom up’ approach would improve on the current scatter tool process before adopting it.
