Reason for Decision
The purpose of the report is to recommend to Cabinet a schedule of fees for discretionary services provided by the Council during the financial year April 2025 to March 2026. The report also notifies Cabinet of statutory fees chargeable during the same period, which are set by various other governing bodies.
Alternative Options Considered and Rejected
The charges presented to Cabinet within the schedule have been recommended based on some key principles, such as customer affordability, cost recovery and commercial acumen. However, the option exists to not increase or to lower uplifts applied to fees and charges for 2025/26.
