Sheffield Consultation Hub

We initially consulted on BTs proposals to remove the telephone service on Chaucer Road from 21^st May to 1 July 2018.  A further consultation was then undertaken from 4 July to 3 August 2018 on a ‘First Notification’ draft decision to object to the proposal.

We received 0 comments in the initial consultation and 0 comments on the ‘First Notification’ draft decision.

We have now issued a ‘Final Notification’ which is Sheffield City Council’s decision to object to the proposed removal of the service on Chaucer Road.

A copy of the Final Notification can be seen here

We ran a consultation between Monday 27^th November 2017 and Friday 23^rd February 2018 to seek opinions on our proposals for introducing Selective Licensing of private rented properties on London Road, Abbeydale Road and Chesterfield Road. We ran four questionnaires (available online and on paper), separately targeted at tenants/residents, landlords and businesses in the area where Selective Licensing is proposed and also residents and businesses in the surrounding area. We also held a series of ten events open to the public to come and have their say.

We received a total of 872 completed questionnaires and these and the other responses we received, at the public meetings, by email, and formal submissions, have been written up into a Consultation Report which can be read on the Council’s website – www.sheffield.gov.uk/selectivelicensing. The responses we received to the questions in the questionnaires are summarised in the Report.

We are proposing to proceed with Selective Licensing but in direct response to the consultation and evidence gathered by the service a new, reduced designation area is being proposed and changes have been proposed to the fee structure. The proposals go to the Council’s Cabinet on the 20th June, with the scheme to start 1st November 2018.  Details on the proposals can be read in the Cabinet Report which is available here.
