In the first half of this year, we have – and we are still yet to see or even experienced dramatic changes to the way experience the full impacts of this we live our lives as a response to a health pandemic. crisis that has swept across the globe. It is the job of the County Council Where and how we work; how we walk to secure the economic, social, down our streets; who we can meet and environmental, and latterly the physical Cllr David Finch how we shop; every thread of the fabric of and emotional well-being of our Leader, Essex County Council everyday life was affected. communities. I have led a Council that No one could have predicted the scale has always taken those responsibilities of the challenge that we are now facing. extremely seriously and considered it of It will have profound impacts not only the utmost importance to plan for stormy on us as individuals, but also on our weather ahead – even if we can’t be sure communities and on our businesses what form those storms will take. That 3 | Essex Annual Report 2019/20 Foreword is why we have focused on efficiencies While we applaud these achievements, to protect front line services and we must also recognise the profound transformation of our business models challenges that are in front of us. Like – because an efficient well-run Council other parts of the public, voluntary, and which delivers the best possible value to business sectors we will need to redouble our residents means that we can spend our efforts to think creatively about how the money where it is needed most – we can best serve the people of this great particularly in times of crisis. county. We will need to dig deeper, try harder, work smarter than ever before So, while the current circumstances throw to secure the outcomes that Essex’s up challenges, the Council is as well- residents deserve. What I take from this placed as anywhere else in the country report is pride in what we have delivered to weather the storm. The Annual Report and perhaps more importantly a sense sets out the progress that we have made of confidence and a belief in our can-do in the last twelve months to deliver the attitude to address the challenges that lie aims set out in our Organisation Strategy. in front of us – that has always been the It sets out our key achievements and Essex way.

Context for Community Engagement 1.1. When preparing a Local Plan, the aim of good engagement is to have better decision making with improved legitimacy, where the community is fully involved and development is aligned to the needs of today’s and future communities. The Council recognises these aims as the means to help it understand people’s views and develop a locally relevant and sound Local Plan. 1.2. The Statement of Community Involvement (SCI) outlines the standard required consultation and identifies the range of engagement methods available to help prepare the Plan. This strategy builds on the SCI to set out in more detail the methods of engagement and how they can be tailored to each consultation stage, the needs of the community and other consultees. 1.3. The importance of community engagement is stated at national level with Paragraph 61 of the Planning Practice Guidance (PPG) on Plan-making requiring effective engagement and consultation with local communities, businesses and other interested parties.

  • Members' Allowances Scheme
    Agenda item 8 Members’ Allowances Scheme Members’ Allowances Scheme: Report of the Independent Remuneration Panel 1. Background It is a number of years since there has been a thorough review of the Council’s scheme of allowances. The Council’s Independent Review Panel last reported in 2010. It is timely therefore to ensure that the Scheme is still current and complies with up-to-date policies and that it properly recompenses councillors operating in a large, visionary local authority; bears comparison with other Councils; is completely transparent about what can or cannot be claimed; and is justifiable to the public. In May, the Council appointed an Independent Remuneration Panel and agreed its Terms of Reference for reviewing the current Members’ Allowances Scheme as follows: Membership: Organisation / Role Name Chairman Dr Declan Hall Local resident Mary Williamson Local Business Representative Elaine Oddie Role 1. To review the County Council’s Members’ Allowances Scheme, taking in to account the roles and responsibilities of Members (both in the Council and in serving their communities) set out in the County Council’s agreed role profiles and elsewhere. 2.
