Key Decisions
Key Decisions are executive decisions of the authority which are decisions of the Executive Board or an officer under delegated powers which are likely to:
- result in Warrington Borough Council incurring expenditure, making savings or vireing £500,000 or more having regard to the local authority budget for the service or functions to which the decision relates, or
- be significant in terms of its effects on communities living or working within the council's area comprising two or more wards
There is a legal requirement that all Key Decisions are published in the Forward Plan. The Forward Plan is a programme of Key Decisions planned to be taken in the following four month period, and is updated every month. Key Decisions may be taken by the council's Executive Board or alternatively by an officer in accordance with the council's constitution.
