Recent meeting information has separated the staff reports and their detailed attachments which have been included in the “Enclosures document”. For the items below I have listed separately, the links to the Staff report and the corresponding enclosure where appropriate. Because of the increased complexity, if there are problems with reports please email admin.

The Table of Contents of the September 2026 Council Business Paper ENCLOSURES can be downloaded here.

NOTE: in the pdf enclosures there are some with many pages which have to be rotated from portrait to landscape to read easily. That can be done in your pdf viewer.

IMPORTANT NOTE: 13.6 Varied Performance Improvement Order Actions involves a number of proposals for revenue raising and cost saving that are of broad general interest and sometimes controversial. The heading does not make the contents or the significance clear. Please check.
