Southend New Local Plan Report off Deputy Chief Executive and Executive Director (Growth and Housing) attached Additional documents:
Decision: The Cabinet considered a report of the Deputy Chief Executive and Executive Director (Growth and Housing) seeking approval to publish the ‘Refining the Plan Options’ for public consultation as part of the next stage in preparing the Southend New Local Plan.
The Minutes of the Environment, Culture, Tourism and Planning Working Party held on 8th June 2021 were considered in conjunction with this matter.
On consideration of the report, members of the Cabinet requested that officers redouble their efforts to investigate any potential available land for housing development outwith the green belt.
Resolved:
1. That the ‘Refining the Plan Options’ document set out at Appendix 1 to the submitted report be approved as the second stage of the preparation of the Southend New Local Plan to be published for public consultation under Regulation 18 of the Town and Country Planning (Local Planning) (England) Regulations 2012.
2. That the feedback received during the previous stage of consultation, the Southend New Local Plan Issues and Options Document 2019, as set out in the accompanying Consultation Statement set out in Appendix 2 to the report, be noted.
3. That authority be delegated to the Deputy Chief Executive and Executive Director (Growth and Housing), in consultation with the Executive Councillor for Environment, Culture, Tourism and Planning to:
· Make minor amendments to the Southend New Local Plan prior to consultation; and · Take all necessary steps to ensure compliance with the relevant statutory processes and procedures to undertake the consultation.
4. That, in view of the constraints within the Borough and given the potential effects on the Green Belt of meeting our housing needs in full, being consulted upon in Options 2 and 3 of the Local Plan Consultation Document, that the Council seek the assistance of the local Members of Parliament to effect a meeting with the Secretary of State for Housing, Communities and Local Government in order to lay before him the difficulties which the Council finds itself in meeting the housing figures imposed by the Government without impinging on substantial green belt land or over-densification of the urban area and the consequent detrimental effect on the health and wellbeing of residents of the Borough.
Reasons for decision:
To expedite production of a new Local Plan for Southend.
Other options:
The failure to prepare a new Local Plan for Southend would result in its current plans becoming progressively out of date and the Council becoming increasingly unable to positively influence the scale, nature and location of development within the Borough.
Note: This is an Executive Function Eligible for call-in to: Place Scrutiny Committee Cabinet Member: Cllr Mulroney

Culture-led Regeneration and the Town Centre Report of Deputy Chief Executive and Executive Director (Growth and Housing) (to follow) Additional documents:
Decision: The Cabinet considered a report of the Deputy Chief Executive, Executive Director (Growth and Housing) and Executive Director (Adults and Communities) setting out the planned next steps towards a reimagined and thriving town centre and the transformational role of culture led regeneration in delivering this and other outcomes across the Borough.
Resolved:
1. That the principles of the Culture Visions as set out in Appendix 1 to the submitted report to shape and inform culture-led regeneration, be adopted.
2. That the progress of outcomes contributing towards a reimagined and thriving town centre, be noted.
3. That the design plans for the LGF funded public realm external works at the Forum (Elmer Square), be approved.
4. That the development of a visual ‘masterplan lite’ for the town centre be progressed with a culture-led regeneration focus and that £125,000 be set aside to support this work to be funded from the Covid Recovery Reserve.
Reasons for decision:
1. The masterplan lite will set out an ambition and principles for growth and investment in the town centre. This provides a framework for funding bids and a tool for securing commercial investment in areas which resonate with Southend and help to deliver agreed outcomes.
2. To place the Council in a position to take advantage of new funding as it becomes available to support recovery and economic growth.
Other options:
Not to progress with the masterplan lite work and embedding of culture-led regeneration in the town centre and more widely across the Borough. This would reduce the likelihood of the benefits set out in the report being realised, a lack of focus for investment and development in the town centre and the absence of a framework for the corresponding Levelling-Up Fund bid and any subsequent funding applications.

Levelling Up Fund Applications Report of Deputy Chief Executive and Executive Director (Growth and Housing) (to follow) Additional documents: Decision: The Cabinet considered a report of the Deputy Chief Executive and Executive Director (Growth and Housing) setting out the proposed approach to applications to the Government’s Levelling-Up Fund (LUF) and the outcomes that would be achieved by successful bids.
Recommended:
1. That a bid to the Levelling-Up Fund (LUF) for highways in the first round, noting the associated additional capital and revenue costs, be approved.
2. That a bid to the LUF for the visitor economy in the first round, noting the associated additional capital and revenue costs, be approved.
3. That a further bid for culture-led town centre regeneration be developed in the second round as a lead authority for a potential joint bid with Rochford District Council, noting the need for associated additional capital and revenue costs for the Council and that Cabinet consider this bid further once the business case has been developed.
4. That if these bids are successful the relevant legal agreements be entered into to draw down the funding.
5. That the addition of £880,000 to the 2021/22 and 2022/23 Capital Investment Programme funded from borrowing to enable preliminary works associated with this bid to commence for the Leigh Port element of the visitor economy bid, be approved.
6. That the required additions (including additional resources for match funding) to the Capital Investment Programme, as set out in section 7.2 of the submitted report once the final outcome of the bids are known, be approved.
7. That the additional revenue implications to the Council of proceeding with these schemes be noted and if the bids are successful that these additional revenue costs will need to be considered as part of the Annual Budget Setting process in February 2022.
Reasons for decision:
The outcomes and benefits to be gained from these three bids cut across a significant number of the Southend 2050 outcomes. If successful, the LUF funded projects themselves will support some of Southend’s key sectors, driving up footfall and spend, thereby safeguarding and potentially creating jobs. They will also enhance the visitor offer, deliver improvements to traffic flows, environmental impact and community cohesion.
Other options:
1. It could be decided not to pursue any LUF bids and focus on existing projects in the capital programme. This would be to the detriment of Southend both in terms of the funding which could be attracted to deliver existing 2050 priorities while supporting economic recovery, and in terms of reputation and actively pursuing levelling-up and growth ambitions.
2. Alternatively the Council could decide to pursue other projects for the three bids. As the proposed bids are rooted in consultation and delivery of 2050 outcomes, this could risk disenfranchisement and reputational damage amongst stakeholders and delay economic recovery.

The updated policy also sets out how the Council will respond to requests for financial support throughout the term of an SGO.
Resolved:
1. That the revised SGO Policy set out at Appendix 1 to the submitted report, be approved.
2. That the need to revise the Policy following the recommendation from the Local Government Ombudsman, be noted.
3. That the financial implications of the new policy for previous years and also for new cases going forward, be noted.

Do nothing. Continuing with the existing informal arrangements does not support ASELA’s ability to secure large scale investment from Government and the private sector. Nor does it provide transparency of decision making or accountability for delivery.
Note: This is a Council Function. Eligible for call-in to: Policy and Resources Scrutiny Committee Cabinet Member: Cllr Gilbert Minutes: The Cabinet considered a report of the Chief Executive providing an update on developments in relation to ASELA and proposed that the Council becomes a member of a Joint Committee of constituent members to oversee ASELA and provide enhanced transparency and accountability in the new delivery stage of its work programme.
The Minutes of the ASELA and Local Government Reform Working Party held on 7th June 2021 were considered in conjunction with this matter.

2.That the Council formally becomes a member of the Association of South Essex Local Authorities (ASELA) Joint Committee in accordance with Section 101 of the Local Government Act 1972, to oversee ASELA and provide enhanced transparency and accountability in the new delivery stage of its work programmes.
3. That the governance arrangements of the Joint Committee set out in Appendix 1 to the report and the related Joint Committee Agreement and Terms of Reference, be approved.
4. That the Leader of the Council be appointed to represent the Council on the Joint Committee.
5. That Councillor Woodley be appointed as the deputy representative to substitute for the Leader, in line with Part 7 of the Constitution.
Reason for Decision:
To provide ASELA with the governance arrangements required to enable delivery of the Growth and Recovery Prospectus and ten delivery programmes and for Southend and its residents to be a direct and indirect beneficiary of the work.
Other options:
Do nothing. Continuing with the existing informal arrangements does not support ASELA’s ability to secure large scale investment from Government and the private sector. Nor does it provide transparency of decision making or accountability for delivery.

The opportunity to make efficiencies and savings will be lost.

Resolved:
1. That the Annual Treasury Management Report for 2020/21 and the outturn Prudential Indicators for 2020/21, be approved.
2. That it be noted that the financing of 2020/21 capital expenditure of £66.085m has been funded in accordance with the schedule set out in Table 1 of section 4 of the submitted report.
3. That it be noted that Capital Financing and Treasury Management were carried out in accordance with statutory requirements, good practice and in compliance with the CIPFA (The Chartered Institute of Public Finance and Accountancy) Prudential Code during 2020/21.
4. That the following in respect of the return on investment and borrowing, be noted:
· The loan and investment portfolios were actively managed to minimise cost and maximise interest earned, whilst maintaining a low level of risk. · £1.606m of interest and income distributions for all investments were earned during 2020/21 at an average rate of 1.06%. This is 1.13% over the average 7 day LIBID rate (London Interbank Bid Rate) and 0.96% over the average bank base rate. Also the value of the externally managed funds decreased by a net of £0.353m due to the changes in the unit price, giving a combined return of 0.83%. (Section 7). · The level of borrowing from the Public Works Loan Board (PWLB) (excluding debt relating to services transferred from Essex County Council on 1st April 1998) remained at £310.3m (Housing Revenue Account (HRA): £75.0m, General Fund (GF): £235.3m) throughout 2020/21. · The level of financing for ‘invest to save’ schemes decreased from £8.64m to £8.53m by the end of 2020/21.

Other options:
There are many options available for the operation of the Treasury Management function, with varying degrees of risk associated with them. The Treasury Management Policy aims to effectively control risk to within a prudent level, whilst providing optimum performance consistent with that level of risk.
