Minutes:
Report No. 180/2021 was introduced by Councillor I Razzell, Portfolio Holder for Planning, Highways and Transport. The purpose of the report was to seek approval for Rutland County Council to join the Leicestershire Building Control Partnership and approve Rutland’s contribution to the initial implementation costs.
In response to a question from Members around the percentage split of costs being determined by the number of applications and whether this would be controlled, Penny Sharp, Strategic Director of Places stated that there were regular client meetings within the partnership so the number of applications could be monitored and reviewed. Through the agreement Rutland County Council would have the ability to terminate if there were concerns around performance.
