Draft Departmental Business Plan 2018/19 - Open Spaces

Report of the Director of Open Spaces.

Minutes:

Members considered item 7 next, a report of the Director of Open Spaces regarding the draft Departmental Business Plan for 2018/19 for Open Spaces and the following comments were made.

 

·         The Director of Open Spaces noted that the draft plan was part of a move towards producing a high level plan that better reflected the City of London Corporation’s Corporate Plan. The plan was at draft stage, and officers continued to work on drafting desired outcomes. Members were invited to comment on the current iteration ahead of a final Departmental Business Plan being submitted to Members for approval in early 2018.

 

·         In response to comments from a Member, the Director agreed to clarify the meaning of symbols and acronyms within the plan, and correct some typographical errors.

 

·         The Deputy Chairman welcomed the draft plan but requested that the Director consider simplifying the overall strategic objectives and over time embedding the newly adopted Community Vision for the Heath in the Business Plan. In response, the Director noted that much of the vision would be reflected in the Divisional Plan, rather than that Departmental Plan.

 

RESOLVED, that the draft Departmental Business Plan be noted.
