Decision details

The Leader of the Opposition referred to what he considered to be the baffling process for the distribution of Section 106 monies.  At a time when funds for public amenity improvement schemes were limited, he failed to understand why the use of Section 106 monies were subject to such restrictions.

In response, the Leader of the Council agreed that the Section 106 process could be confusing, and felt that the Council should be more specific in its intent for the use of Section 106 monies.  The Planning Team would therefore be requested to provide a response to the issue in writing to all Members of the Council.

The Council then received updates on the following:

·         Town Twinning Visit

·         Stevenage Works

·         Shared Anti-Fraud Service

·         The Cycle Tour Series

·         Stevenage Day

·         Excellence in Public Health Award

·         HRA Borrowing Cap

·         Social Housing Green Paper

·         Town Centre Regeneration

·         Stevenage Local Plan

·         Green Flag Awards
