RESOLVED:
That the Cabinet considers the consultation responses and approves the adoption of the Local Flood Risk Management Strategy.
Reasons for decision
In the absence of the Cabinet Member, the Leader of the Council introduced the report on the Local Flood Risk Management Strategy. The strategy, a legal requirement under the Flood and Water Management Act 2000, had been subject to consultation from 22 January 2024 to 24 March. Feedback from the consultation was incorporated into the proposed strategy. The Leader noted that the strategy was intended to be a living document, hosted on the website and broken down into accessible chapters for public reference. It was further noted by the Leader that comments continue to be received from residents, with approximately 30,000 properties in the Borough currently at risk of flooding.
Alternative options considered and rejected
None, as a statutory requirement.
