Update to the Scheme of Delegations

The Court of Common Council had previously delegated some of its functions to the Planning and Transportation and the Port Health and Environmental Services Committees. To facilitate the administration of these functions, some matters relating to transportation and public realm, town planning, and building control had been further delegated to the Director of the Built Environment and the District Surveyor, as set out in the Scheme of Delegations previously approved by the Court of Common Council.

Minor modifications were now required to reflect responsibilities relating to Crossrail and changes to job titles. These were reflected in the revised section of the Scheme of Delegations set out in full in the Appendix to the report, which was presented to the Court of Common Council for consideration and recommended for approval.

Resolved – That the revised delegations to the Director of the Built Environment and the District Surveyor, as set out in the Appendix to the report, be approved.
