REVIEW OF SERVICE FEES AND CHARGES FOR STREETSCENE 2024-25

Decision Maker: Assistant Director of Streetscene

Decision status: Recommendations Approved

Is Key decision?: No

Is subject to call in?: No

Decision:

To introduce new charges for services and increase existing fees and charges set out at Appendix 1 (exclusive of VAT) to reflect inflationary, waste disposal cost increases and wider market forces.

Reasons for the decision:

Periodic review of service charges ensures inflation is taken in to consideration, along with operational demands and policies to meet cost of service delivery.

Alternative options considered:

A do nothing approach, is not sustainable in the delivery of chargeable services; in particular, where wholly dependent upon income generation. Should fees and charges not be reviewed this would result in rises in the cost of operations not being met arising from inflation, waste disposal increases and wider market forces.
