Decision details

The Cabinet Members agree that:

1. The recommendation for the new fees, charges and commuted sums for relevant services - as proposed in Appendix 1 and 2;
2. That these are to be implemented on 1st May 2021; and
3. That delegated authority be given to the Highways and Traffic Deputy Group Manager in consultation with the Cabinet Member for Transport to agree fees and charges which vary from the standard inflation clause, if the cost base changes or new services are introduced, and that this can be done at 6 month intervals if external factors influence the cost base significantly throughout the financial year to the fees charges and commuted sums for specified services provided, within the Highways and Traffic Service.

The Service undertakes a wide range of statutory and non-statutory functions to ensure that the highway network is managed, maintained and developed to specified standards.

The fees for a number of the functions delivered by the Service are statutory and are therefore set by Legal Regulations. Other fees and charges are discretionary and have been set to ensure that cost recovery is achieved.

None.
