Is Key decision?: Yes
Is subject to call in?: Yes
In November 2020, Cabinet recommended the approval of the first draft of the new West Sussex Plan to County Council in December 2020. The Plan will reset the County Council’s priorities and outcomes for the year from April 2021. Cabinet will be asked to recommend the approval of the final version of the Plan to County Council in February 2021.
The Plan will build on the framework approved by the County Council in July 2020 which identified the main priorities around which the plan will be built and the principles which will drive its development. It will capture existing activities of the County Council and those delivered with its partners as well as identifying those ambitions and outcomes which will be new. It will map the timetable for delivering these activities and describe the measures on which to judge the County Council’s performance in achieving them. It will show how the activities are to be funded and managed within budgetary requirements whilst striving to deliver outcomes that are ambitious, realistic and achievable, particularly within the context of continued uncertainty, challenges and pressures associated with the local and national impact of the global pandemic.
