KCC working with Medway and all Kent LAs has developed an Energy and Low Emissions Strategy. All Kent LAs have been asked to adopt the strategy.  Swale will only be noting.

The Cabinet Member for Environment introduced the report which asked Members to note the Kent and Medway Energy and Low Emissions Strategy and recommended that SBC worked with KCC to deliver the strategy where appropriate.  He said it was a KCC strategy which set out an approach, set targets and outlined projects to improve energy efficiency and air quality across the Borough.  The Cabinet Member for Environment said that some SBC targets were more ambitious than KCC targets and there needed to be partnership working.

The Leader encouraged partnership working with KCC.

Resolved:

(1)  That the Kent and Medway Energy and Low Emissions Strategy be noted.

(2)  That Swale Borough Council works with KCC to deliver this strategy where appropriate.
