Decision:

RESOLVED that

a)    the Fees and Charges for 2022/23, as presented at Appendix 1, with all applicable increases taking effect as soon as practically possible after 1 April 2022, be approved;

 

b)    delegated authority be granted to the Corporate Finance Manager (and Section 151 Officer), in consultation with the Portfolio Holder for Finance, Revenues and Benefits, to confirm that the Festival Hall Leisure Centre fees will be transferrable to the new Kirkby Leisure Centre, once opened in late 2022, and to include any additional fees for new facilities being offered by the Centre (i.e. the new climbing wall facility).

 

Minutes:

 

Each year the Council reviews its Fees and Charges as part of setting its Annual Budget and Cabinet were requested to consider and approve the proposed Fees & Charges booklet for 2022/23, as appended to the report.

 

Members considered the alternative options for varying the fees and charges,

as presented to them in the report, where applicable.

 

RESOLVED that

a)    the Fees and Charges for 2022/23, as presented at Appendix 1, with all applicable increases taking effect as soon as practically possible after 1 April 2022, be approved;

 

b)    delegated authority be granted to the Corporate Finance Manager (and Section 151 Officer), in consultation with the Portfolio Holder for Finance, Revenues and Benefits, to confirm that the Festival Hall Leisure Centre fees will be transferrable to the new Kirkby Leisure Centre, once opened in late 2022, and to include any additional fees for new facilities being offered by the Centre (i.e. the new climbing wall facility).

 

Reason:

Additional income generated will meet the inflationary costs of service provision and will contribute towards the Council’s saving targets and continue to support the financing of a range of services to Ashfield residents and businesses. In addition, an annual review of Fees and Charges is part of

sound financial management practice and a requirement of the Council’s Financial Regulations.
