Decision:
RESOLVED: That the Council continues to be part of the CNC Building Control partnership for the next 5 years.
Reason for Decision
To ensure the continued provision of a statutory Building Control function through the CNC Building Control partnership.
Minutes:
Councillor Blunt presented a report which sought to agree confirmation of the continuation of the Local Authority Building Control (LABC) function carried out by CNC Building Control on behalf of the Borough Council, so that it continued for another 5 years.
The Participation Agreement for the provision of Building Control Services was reviewed and updated every 5 years, and it was now due for renewal/review.
The current participation agreement involved 5 Local Authorities, namely South Norfolk Council, who host the Building Control function, Broadland District Council, Norwich City Council, King’s Lynn and West Norfolk Borough Council, and Fenland District Council.
The Building Control function has been carried out by CNC on behalf of the Council since October 2010, when the Borough Council joined the partnership. It is considered to work well, and has offered significant financial savings to the Council during the course of its operation.
RESOLVED: That the Council continues to be part of the CNC Building Control partnership for the next 5 years.
Reason for Decision
To ensure the continued provision of a statutory Building Control function through the CNC Building Control partnership.
