Cabinet considered the report and RESOLVED to recommend the ‘Environment Action Plan: City-Wide’ and ‘Environment Action Plan: Peterborough City Council’ documents to Council for adoption.
Cabinet was recommended to approve the Environment Action Plans. This was because the plans would help deliver the city’s Environment Capital priority by providing clear strategic direction for the priority whilst creating a set of targets with which the progress of this priority would be measured.
The alternative option of not producing a plan would mean that there would be no clear vision and targets associated with the Environment Capital priority making progress difficult to monitor and the effective allocation of resources difficult. Therefore the alternative option of not producing the Environment Action Plans was rejected.
None.
The first Environment Capital Action Plan was adopted in 2014 and could be viewed on the Councils website. The link was:
