Forthcoming Key Decisions

This page lists the key decisions due to be taken within Leeds City Council over the next few months. Details of each key decision will be published below at least 28 clear days before the decision is due to be taken

What is a 'Key Decision'?

A key decision is an executive decision which is likely to:

  • result in the Authority incurring expenditure or making savings over £500,000, or
  • have a significant effect on communites living or working in an area comprising one or more wards.
  • Article 13 of the Council's Constitution provides more details about which decisions will be treated as key decisions.

    How to get more information about a particular key decision

    The agenda papers for Executive Board meetings, and the documents being considered by officers taking key decisions, are available five working days before the decision will be made through the Council's website.

    The contact details of a lead officer are provided for each key decision listed below. Please contact the lead officer directly if you wish to obtain copies or extracts of any other listed documents, or if you wish to receive details of further documents as they become available. Sometimes the papers you request may contain exempt of confidential information. If this is the case, the lead officer will explain why it will not be possible to make copies available.

    Forthcoming Key Decisions

    08/12/2017 - Leeds Building Services - Creation of additional posts

    Request that approval is granted for the creation of 15 positions at a cost of £490,415 to support the delivery of the sprinkler retro-fitting programme to be delivered by Armstrong Priestley as urgent works as part of the fire sprinkler programme.

    Analysis of the requirements of the additional resources required on the LBS staffing structure has identified that there is a requirement for two Business Support Officers (B3), two Team Leaders (SO2), 10 multi-skilled operatives and an electrician.  There will also be opportunities for apprentices to be assigned to this important work. The above job roles already exist so would not require the creation of new job descriptions.

    LBS cannot recruit to the additional posts required to deliver the prioritised sprinkler programme until they are created on the structure.  This will require a key decision.
