Description
Despite the title of this item, the proposal does not involve any fundamental changes to the structure of the Regeneration Team but rather the deletion of 6 posts (4.3 FTE posts due to part time nature of some of these posts). All of the posts have been vacant for more than a year except one. The post that was vacated most recently was a part time role vacated due to retirement in January 2022. The retirement coincided with the end of some project work which allowed the work from this role to be absorbed into the wider team.

Description
Service Redesign - Economic Development Currently Economic Development consists of a small strategic function, but with the majority of capacity focused on the management of a number of externally funded projects across business growth, employment and skills activity. Over the next 12-18 months the funding for a number of these projects falls away, with significantly reduced opportunities for future funding. In addition, with the establishment of a new mayoral combined authority, additional strategic capacity will be required to ensure that Nottingham's priorities are effectively positioned for future funding opportunities. It is therefore proposed to undertake a service redesign process, which repositions the service to focus on the development of strategy, but reduces the management of directly delivered projects.

Description
The Council is being asked to make significant budget savings in 2023/24. One proposal is to close the Shopmobility service. The Shopmobility service was designed to support users that can operate a mobility scooter independently and safely. The Council manages the stock and maintenance of the equipment, which is mostly mobility scooters and some wheelchairs, and loans it out to registered members free of charge for several hours. A test and training session is required prior to membership of the scheme and only those who can demonstrate that they can safely and independently operate a scooter are able to join the scheme. The service is located in the White Car Park of the Victoria Shopping Centre, with the building and nearby disabled parking spaces being provided to the Council from the shopping centre management. It currently operates three days a week (Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday), between the hours of 10:00 and 14:45.

Description
Accelerate reduction to Inward Investment & Tourism activity - This relates to a saving already in the base for annual additional reductions to place promotion for Inward Investment and Tourism over future years. This phased approach was implemented to provide time to develop alternative funding models for future delivery. This proposal accelerates this saving bringing forward a £50k saving from 24/25 into 23/24. This means that the level of place promotion activity will be significantly reduced.
