(Report of Chief
Executive)
 
Member approval was
sought for publication of the Climate Change Action Plan Year 3
Progress Report (2022/23) and Carbon Audits for years 1 and 2, set
out in Annexes 1 to 3 respectively.
 
Good progress had
been made on the 50 climate change actions for 2022/23 with around
half rated as ‘ongoing’ due to either continuing
collaborations or multi-year projects.   Where actions had changed or were not fully
completed an explanation had been provided and these were
summarised in 1.2 of the report.
 
Carbon Audits
provided quality assured data for the Borough Council owned estate
and operations and both audits illustrated that these remained the
most significant contributors to emissions.
 
Following
consideration by the Communities and Environment Scrutiny Select
Committee, the Cabinet Member for Climate Change, Regeneration and
Property resolved that:
 
(1)         
the Climate Change Action Plan Year 3 Progress Report, as set out
in Annex 1 of the report, be endorsed; and

 
(2)         
the Carbon Audits for Year 1 and 2, as set out in Annexes 2 and 3
of the report, be endorsed.
