14/01/2021 - Report of the Corporate Finance and Governance Portfolio Holder. - A.2 - Housing Revenue Account Budget Proposals 2021/2022 ref: 6246    Recommendations Approved (subject to call-in)

Decision Maker: Resources and Services Overview and Scrutiny Committee

Made at meeting: 14/01/2021 - Resources and Services Overview and Scrutiny Committee

Decision published: 22/01/2021

Effective from: 14/01/2021

Decision:

The Committee received the report submitted to Cabinet on 18 December 2020 on the HRA Budget for 2021/22 including the movement in Housing Revenue Account (HRA) Balances, the level of fees and charges for 2021/22 and the HRA Capital Programme. In particular, the attention of Members was drawn to:

 

·           Only limited changes to the HRA budget were proposed in 2021/22, pending a longer-term review of the HRA business plan during 2021.

·           2020/21 was the first year that the Government allowed rents to be increased following a 4-year period where they were required to be reduced by 1% each year.

·           In-line with rent setting guidance issued by the Regulator for Social Housing, rents are proposed to be increased by the Consumer Price Index plus 1% in 2021/22 (a 1.5% increase) to continue the recovery from the 4 years of rent reductions mentioned above.

·           The average weekly rent proposed for 2021/22 is £84.10 (£82.42 in 2020/21)

·           Although the above increase in rents generates additional income of £0.193m, other changes to the budget have more than offset this position with an overall deficit of £0.012m forecast for 2021/22.

·           It was proposed to fund this relatively small deficit by drawing money down from the HRA General Balance, which was estimated to total £5.257m at the end of 2021/22 after taking into account this adjustment.

·           The proposed HRA Capital Programme for 2021/22 totals £3.457m and continued to provide for a range of schemes and projects.

·           The Capital programme included a revenue contribution of £0.281m to support new build and acquisition projects. This on-going budget could either support the direct cost of projects within the capital programme or meet the borrowing costs that were likely to be required to deliver the 200 new properties the Cabinet had committed to provide.

·           Relevant matters in respect of the potential to fund an increase in the level of borrowing required to deliver the new build projects at the speed and scale committed too.

·           The HRA general balance was forecast to total £5.257m at the end of 2021/22, which retained a strong financial position against which the HRA 30 year Business Plan could be further developed.

·           ‘Old’ HRA debt continued to reduce year on year as principal is repaid with a total debt position at the end of 2021/22 forecast to be £36.777m (A reduction of £1.664m compared with the figure at the end of this year).

 

The Committee thereupon undertook its scrutiny of the HRA Budget Proposals for 2021/22.

 

Prior to the meeting, questions were submitted to the Housing Portfolio Holder in respect of the HRA and these are set out in the Appendix to these Minutes together with the responses provided.

 

The Housing Portfolio Holder, Councillor P B Honeywood, accompanied by the appropriate Senior Officer, attended the meeting and assisted the Committee in its enquiry of the matters put to him in respect of the HRA budget position.

 

Having considered all of the information that had been provided and acknowledging the measures to address the costs to the Housing Revenue Account of unrented Council housing (‘voids'):

 

It was RESOLVED that CABINET be RECOMMENDED to set a target level for reducing void periods in 2021/22 in the housing stock with a view to providing specific focus to those measures.


14/01/2021 - Report of the Corporate Finance and Governance Portfolio Holder. - A.1 - Updated Financial Forecast/Budget 20221/22 ref: 6245    Recommendations Approved (subject to call-in)

Decision Maker: Resources and Services Overview and Scrutiny Committee

Made at meeting: 14/01/2021 - Resources and Services Overview and Scrutiny Committee

Decision published: 22/01/2021

Effective from: 14/01/2021

Decision:

The Committee received the details submitted to the Cabinet on 18 December 2020 in relation to the updated financial forecast and proposed budget position for 2021/22.  In particular, the Committee was advised as follows:

 

·                     A ‘live’ 10-year forecast was maintained and reported to Members throughout the year.

·                     The most up to date position in December each year was translated into the detailed budget for the following year for consultation with the Resources and Services Overview and Scrutiny Committee.

·                     As part of maintaining a ‘live’ forecast, this report ‘built’ on the last position that was presented to Cabinet on 13 November 2020.

·                     Despite the challenging financial and economic environment, confidence in the long term approach to the forecast remained, which was supported by the forecast risk fund. It is also worth highlighting that the managed position in terms of reserves continued to enable the Council to respond to exceptional events such as the COVID 19 crisis.

·                     At this stage of the budget process, there was a net deficit of £1.647m forecast in 2021/22, an improvement of £0.128m compared with the £1.775m deficit reported to Cabinet on 13 November 2020. Therefore, the forecast remained within the financial boundaries set out in the long-term plan.

·                     Although subject to potential changes over the remaining budget-setting period, the current forecasted deficit of £1.647m would be met by drawing money down from the forecast risk fund.

·                     At the time of finalising this report, the Local Government Finance Settlement for 2021/22 had yet to be announced. They would be included in the figures that would be presented to Cabinet in January 2021 when it considered its final budget proposals for recommending to Full Council in February 2021. The budget included a council tax levy increase of £5, with this level of increase expected to be confirmed as allowable as part of the finance settlement announcements. No revenue support grant had been included in the budget for 2021/22, but similarly to the late announcement last year, the Government could provide some funding again next year, especially when reflecting on the financial impact of COVID 19 on Local Authorities.

·                     Once the final position for 2021/22 was determined, the remaining years of the 10-year forecast would be revised, set against the budget position for 2021/22 and would be reported to Members later in the budget setting process.

 

In addition to the above, the Committee was advised of the following in respect of reserves, provisions and one-off sums for specific projects:

The Committee thereupon undertook its scrutiny of the Financial Forecast / Budget Proposals for 2021/22.

 

Prior to the meeting, questions that the Committee Members had raised had been circulated to the relevant Cabinet Members and Officers in order to enable responses to be provided. Those questions and responses form the Appendix to these Minutes.

 

Members of the Cabinet, accompanied by the appropriate Management Team Member or other Senior Officer, attended the meeting in turn and assisted the Committee in its enquiry of the matters put to them in respect of the budget position and allocation of funds.

 

Having considered all of the information that had been provided it was RESOLVED that the CABINET be RECOMMENDED that:

 

(a)       In respect of future outturn positions on the Council's annual budget, to allocate as a priority any available underspend following permitted carry forwards to extend further the measures to achieve the Back to Business Agenda of the Council.

 

(b)       Further to (a), to establish a Business Roundtable for the District as part of the Back to Business Agenda and to inform that Agenda going forward.

 

(c)     To reassess all the current reserves, provisions and one off sums allocated by the Council to determine whether they were still required, relevant to the Council’s Corporate Plan and the associated sum was at the appropriate level and:

 

(i)      to re-allocate sums such as those for the Clacton Town Centre Fountain and Residents Free Parking (where the cost has been incorporated in the base revenue budget) to more closely align with the Corporate Plan priorities of the Council.

(ii)      to identify the specific intentions for the £1.585M for Business Investment and Growth Projects reserve or otherwise look to reallocate that reserve.

(iii)     To allocate a further £56k to resourcing public realm improvements across the District (supplementing and extending the £44k set aside to fund ‘2 One year fixed term posts to support improvements to the overall appearance of the District') thereby allocating a total of £100k to this initiative in total.

(iv)    From the reallocation process, and in recognition of the additional £110k in recycling credits achieved by the Council in 2020/21, to identify £10k to improve recycling bring sites operated by the Council in the District to improve the attractiveness of those sites, signage at and to those sites and thereby further encourage their use and address relevant issues at those sites.

 

(d)       To request that proposals for use of the Tendring Community Fund be developed swiftly so that these can be put in front of a meeting of the Portfolio Holder Working Party on the Tendring Community Fund without delay.

 

(e)       To identify whether existing funding in the revenue budget and reserves, provisions and one-off sums enables the Council to adequately support co-ordinated measures to address the mental health needs of the local population as we ultimately come out of covid-19 pandemic restrictions and if this is found to be insufficient to look to allocate further resources as necessary to address those needs..

 

(f)      To pro-actively assess and monitor the resources required to deliver a dynamic and expansive Tourism Strategy for the District (and the Year 1 delivery plan to accompany that Strategy) to maximise the advantage to the District as soon as covid-19 pandemic restrictions are lifted and extending beyond the normal summer season.

 

It was further RESOLVED that:

 

(a)       The work underway in respect of ‘auditing' one off sums and the schemes they are intended to fund and to review progress with this at the March meeting of the Committee. That this review should include details of the original decision to allocate the funds and an assessment as to whether the scheme is on target to be delivered.

 

(b)       The receipt, allocation, timing and use of section 106 funds to support community infrastructure associated with development in the District be reviewed by the Committee as part of its work programme.

 

(c)       The Chairman of the Committee is requested to urge the Portfolio Holder for the Environment to undertake further efforts with Essex County Council and Highways England to secure a good level of cleaning on the A120 and A133 in view of the extensive uses of those roads and the impression given to visitors that litter is acceptable from the current level of rubbish alongside those roads.

 

(d)     That the Community Leadership Overview and Scrutiny Committee be invited to consider the mental health support to residents referenced above in recommendation to the Cabinet (e).

19/01/2021 - Charging procedure in respect of Wayleave Agreements from BT or Openreach ref: 6272    Recommendations Approved

BT and Openreach are currently upgrading their broadband infrastructure to meet the government’s target of full fibre broadband coverage across all of the UK by 2033. As such TDC have received a request to grant a Wayleave to install equipment on its land and it is anticipated that more will be forthcoming over the course of this project.
It is considered that use of the standard fees negotiated by the NFU and CLA (Appendix A) will demonstrate best value without having to pay for costly valuations, which in many cases are likely to cost more than the value of the Wayleave agreements. It will also speed up the process time supporting BT/Openreach to meet the governments targets.
Granting of these Wayleave agreements will benefit the District enabling better coverage across Tendring for its residents and providing more attractive broadband availability for Tendring’s businesses and those that may be looking to start up or move to the area.
The Property Dealing Procedure as set out in the Constitution states that “in any ransom or other circumstances where the seeking of two valuations would be impractical in the opinion of the Assistant Director (Building
