Minutes:
Mrs Taylor introduced the report. She explained that the council provides a development management service for the South Downs National Park Authority (SDNPA) for the area of the SDNP that falls within the district. The current S106 agreement was entered into on 1 October 2017 and was set for a three year term with the potential to extend for a further two years subject to the agreement of both parties. As part of the Agreement the council is paid per application. The Agreement provides the additional benefit of involvement by the Council in development proposals within SDNP which equates to 70% of Chichester district. The costs received reflect costs incurred in delivering the development management service in the national park. It is agreed that the Agreement is mutually beneficial to both parties with the SDNPA confirming that Chichester is its best performing host authority. As a result it is proposed that the two year extension be agreed.
Decision
The Cabinet then voted unanimously to make the resolution below.
