Content

RESOLVED:
 
That Committee:
 

1. Approved the following licence fees for
2024/25:

· Taxi Licence fees - as set out in Appendix 1.

· Sex
Entertainment Venues and Sex Establishments fees – as set out
in Appendix 2.

· Street Trading fees – as set out in Appendix 2.

· All
Gambling Act 2005 fees – as set out in Appendix 2.

· Body piercing – as set out in Appendix 2.

· All
Animal Activity Licences fees - as set out in Appendix
3.

 

A list of agreed fees for 2023/24 and proposed fees
for 2024/25 is included in

Appendices 1-3.

 

Note: If the above recommendations are not
agreed, or if the committee wishes to amend the recommendations,
then the item will normally need to be referred to the
Strategy, Finance & City Regeneration Committee meeting on 9
February 2024 to be considered as part of the overall 2024/25
budget proposals. This is because the 2024/25 budget proposals are
developed on the assumption that fees and charges are agreed as
recommended and any failure to agree, or a proposal to agree
different fees and charges, will have an impact on the overall
budget proposals, which means it needs to be dealt with by
Strategy, Finance & City Regeneration Committee as per the
requirements of the constitution. This does not
fetter the
committee’s ability to make recommendations to Strategy, Finance & City Regeneration
Committee.
