Decision details

New addition to fees and charges for 2017/18 (TV Screens)

Reference: D646

Decision Maker: Portfolio Holder for Corporate Resources and Performance

Decision status: Recommendations Approved

Is Key decision?: No

Is subject to call in?: No

Purpose:

The report details a new set of Fees and Charges for Communications, specifically for advertising on the Council’s TV screens and seeks approval for their introduction with immediate effect.

Decision:

The new Fees and Charges in respect of TV advertising for 2017/18 as detailed in Appendix 1 to the report are approved and introduced with immediate effect.

Reasons for the decision:

To contribute to the delivery of a balanced budget both in 2017/18 and in the medium term, and satisfy statutory requirements.

Alternative options considered:

The Council could agree a higher or lower pricing structure. However, a lower pricing structure does not reflect the cost of the work undertaken to advertise on behalf of other bodies. A higher pricing structure could only be applied to public bodies and, at this stage, as a new service, it is considered more appropriate to trial take up. A full review will be undertaken before setting any fees for 2018/19.
