Executive considered a detailed report presented by the Portfolio Holder for Corporate Performance and Governance in relation to the Quarter 2 (July - September 2024) outturns for the Council Plan targets 2024-2028.
Out of the 33 targets, 32 (97%) were on track and 1 (3%) had yet to start. With regard to Dragonfly targets, Members’ attention was drawn to the target for Domestic Compliance in Independent Living Scheme (ILS) properties against Water Safety, which had an outturn of 93% - this was below target due to the transitional period in relation to a new contractor following a procurement exercise, however, outstanding checks were prioritised for the following checking period.
In response to a Member’s query regarding when the target Work with partners to increase the supply, quality, and range of affordable housing to meet identified local needs, would start, the Assistant Director Planning and Planning Policy advised Members that this target had a long lead in time as contact with all registered providers in the District would need to be made to discuss the supply of affordable housing in the District in accordance with the Council’s Local Plan target.
In response to a Member’s query regarding why some KPIs were below target, the Information, Engagement and Performance Manager, drew Members attention to the KPI Exceptions Note which provided an explanation for this.
