  • The Highland Council- Planning Performance Framework Comhairle Na Gàidhealtachd - Frèam Dèanadas Dealbhaidh
    The Highland Council- Planning Performance Framework Comhairle na Gàidhealtachd - Frèam Dèanadas Dealbhaidh September 2014 Planning Performance Framework Frèam Dèanadas Dealbhaidh 1 Foreword Welcome to our Planning Performance Framework, which sets out the key highlights of our performance during 2013/14. This was a busy year for the planning service, with a challenging programme of development planning work as well as Highland Council being one of the busiest local authorities in terms of numbers of planning applications being determined. I am pleased with the progress made in implementing improvements set out in last years’ service improvement plan. Notably our Enforcement service has been supported and strengthened, and the way in which customers can contact us, and get updates to their complaints has been vastly improved. We have also achieved performance improvements in terms of reduced timescales for local developments, and have implemented processing agreements for the majority of major planning applications. Improvements have also been made to the speed of dealing with legal agreements, meaning that legacy cases can now be dealt with more effectively. Engagement with key stakeholders has also improved, and a training programme with community councils, focus groups with agents and an effective training programme for our planning team have all been useful and welcomed. This Planning Performance Framework sets out the service improvement plan for this year and we are working hard at implementing these. I hope to show further progress made next year.

  • A Flag for Sutherland Guidelines for the Competition for the Design and Entry Form
    A FLAG FOR SUTHERLAND GUIDELINES FOR THE COMPETITION FOR THE DESIGN AND ENTRY FORM Background 1. Flags are an ancient art form that developed especially to clearly display allegiance and identity. They have subsequently become the premier medium for expressing local pride and identity and it is difficult to imagine events as diverse as sports matches, military parades or musical festivals without a range of flags being flown. 2. The Flag Institute maintains and manages the national registry of all official UK flags to ensure there is a definitive record of those which exist both nationally and regionally. 3. Ever since the County of Sutherland was subsumed into the Highland Council in 1996, there has been a gradual loss of identity of the county and all it stands for. It is considered that a Sutherland Flag will help to restore that identity and be a public symbol for all to use that will: a. Raise recognition and awareness of our area nation-wide; b. Help to demonstrate pride both in and within our local communities; c. Celebrate the heritage and culture of our part of the Highlands. 4. The Lieutenancy of Sutherland, in conjunction with our local Highland Councillors, is promoting a plan for a Flag for Sutherland and, in May 2017, formed a Sutherland Flag Steering Group to develop the plan. It was decided that, given the size and wide diversity of the County, the best way to produce a relevant design, would be to run a Sutherland-wide competition. 5. All competitions require guidelines so that all those wishing to enter start on an equal footing.

Our work includes: • securing and acting upon the external audit of Scotland’s councils and various joint boards and committees • assessing the performance of councils in relation to Best Value and community planning • carrying out national performance audits to help councils improve their services • requiring councils to publish information to help the public assess their performance.
