To consider and receive the report of the Director (Policy and Governance).

Councillor Peter Wilson, Executive Member (Resources) presented the report of the Director (Policy and Governance) which sets out the performance against the delivery of the Corporate Strategy and key performance indicators during the second quarter of 2018/19, 1 July – 30 September 2018. 

Members queried the target for the indicator relating “Number of projected jobs created through Chorley Council support or intervention” and noted that the current target is fair given the current uncertainty. 

The Streetscene Modernisation project is currently rated amber, but is a three-year project.  The Council is progressing appointments to vacant posts and focusing on activity to support the procurement of replacement small sweepers which are no longer fit for purpose. 

Members noted the impact of the Youth Zone on the “The number of young people supported through council health and wellbeing opportunities”.  The success of the Youth Zone was commended. 

Decision: That the report be noted.
