Cancelled
On 18 September 2024 the Cabinet considered the July revenue and capital budget monitors, the quarter 1 corporate risk register, the Annual Digital Report, the Climate Change Annual Report, a new city centre leisure and wellbeing centre, a cross-party group for the city centre Placemaking Plan, and its work programme. It approved the recommended reserve transfers, a £16.2m reprofiling of the 2024/25 capital budget, an extra £600k of council funding for the leisure centre, and a cross-party task and finish group for the Placemaking Plan. It endorsed the digital report and approved the climate change report.
The committee considered the draft Corporate Wellbeing Self-Assessment 2023-24 and the Strategic Equalities Plan Annual Report 2023-24, and made several recommendations on both. It was content with both reports. It also agreed to cancel its 27 September 2024 meeting, which had no main items.
The Planning Committee met on 4 September 2024 to consider planning applications and recent planning appeal decisions. No minutes have been published yet, so no decisions are recorded; the papers set out what the committee will consider and the appeal outcomes it was asked to note.
These orders set rules for defined public areas to tackle antisocial behaviour. It also heard from Newport Wastesavers about its kerbside recycling partnership with the council. The Committee supported the PSPO changes and made recommendations on recycling engagement and collection points; the PSPO changes remain under public consultation, with decisions to follow.
The Planning Committee met on 7 August 2024 to consider a schedule of planning applications and to note recent planning appeal decisions. No minutes have been published for this meeting, so this summary records no decisions. Each application report ends with an officer recommendation, which the committee will decide.
