Report of the Director of the Built Environment.

The Committee considered a report of the Director of the Built Environment that sought approval to the Departmental Business Plan for 2015-18. Members were advised that the objectives of the Business plan were to provide an integrated service to City developers and occupiers from pre-construction to demolition; to improve external communications and actively engage with City of London residents, worker and visitors; to manage all activities and services that relate to the City of London’s streets; and to respond to changes in demand for and usage of the City of London’s streets and street scene.

The Director of the Built Environment advised that the 2015/16 target to increase the total percentage of household waste recycled was 45%, not 43%. He added that the number of household recyclable items needed to be increased to ensure a reduction to the amount of incinerated household waste.

Members noted the impressive work carried out by Officers across the Department of the Built Environment during 2014/15.

RESOLVED – That the Department of the Built Environmental Business Plan 2015-18 be approved.
