Minutes:

Claire Perry, the Licensing Partnership Manager, presented the update report for 2015 of the Head of Communities and Housing on the Licensing Partnership.

 

The overall improvement in turnaround times was noted and Councillors congratulated the Licensing Partnership for their hard work.

 

In response to questions it was explained that the Licensing Partnership employed a rolling three year formula to calculate the cost for each authority in the Licensing Partnership for the forthcoming year. The Committee heard that the cost per partner was revised on an annual basis. On average Maidstone brought in more income and spent less than budgeted each year, and £7000 had been consistently returned to each authority annually.

 

The Committee were in agreement that going forward an update report to the first meeting of the Committee in each Municipal Year would be required.

 

RESOLVED:

 

1.  That the report be noted

 

2.  That an update report be scheduled to return to the Committee at the first meeting of the Municipal Year.

 

3.  That a letter of congratulations be sent to the Licensing Partnership to acknowledge their high levels of performance.
