There was submitted a joint report by the Treasurer and the Head of Economy & Development Services, Renfrewshire Council relative to the Revenue Estimates of the Glasgow and the Clyde Valley Strategic Development Planning Authority (Clydeplan) and the Green Network Partnership, including the requisition of the constituent authorities for financial year 2024/25, as detailed in the appendix to the report.
The report advised that the Minute of Agreement required the Treasurer to submit a financial plan to the Joint Committee setting out estimated expenditure and associated requisitions for the following three years. In light of current potential governance changes the report requested that the Joint Committee agree to waive this requirement for the current year.
The report further advised that the Revenue Estimates presented in Appendix 1 to the report included requisition discounts resulting in a 36% reduction in the net requisition for 2024/25.
The report provided information on the assumptions that the budget had been based on, a financial overview for Clydeplan and reserves.
DECIDED:
(a) That the Revenue Estimates for 2024/25, as set out in Appendix 1 to the report, including the planned use of reserves be approved; and
(b) That the requirement for a three-year financial plan be waived in 2023/24.
