Local Area Committees (LACs) were established by Sheffield City Council in 2021. The primary purpose of the LACs is to promote the involvement of local people in the democratic process and to bring decision making closer to local people. There are seven LACs, and each one is made up of four wards. Each committee is composed of the elected members for those wards. The Committee does not and will not include council officers, representatives of partner organisations or members of the public, although they may be involved in a supporting or advisory capacity. Through public consultation, each LAC committed to developing a Community Plan that seeks to identify the key issues within their respective area, and develop a series of priorities that will inform the direction of the LAC, and direct the spending of delegated budgets, where the LAC has authority to do so. This Report recommends the approval of the North Community Plan.
