To consider a report of the Director of Culture, Communities and Business Services regarding the annual review of fees and charges applicable to the River Hamble.

The Board considered a report from the Director of Culture, Communities and Business Services (item 11 in the minute book), which summarised the annual review of fees and charges applicable to the River Hamble.

Whilst the proposed increases were below inflation, it was felt that this provided good value for money whilst being an adequate enough increase to benefit the River Hamble Harbour Authority.

The Board agreed that a gradual increase was much preferred than larger, sudden hikes.

RESOLVED

The River Hamble Harbour Board approved the fees and charges set out

in the report and to advertising them on the River Hamble Harbour Authority website.

The Committee considered a report from the Director of Culture, Communities and Business Services (item 10 in the minute book), which summarised the annual review of fees and charges applicable to the River Hamble.

Whilst the proposed increases were below inflation, it was felt that this provided good value for money whilst being an adequate enough increase to benefit the River Hamble Harbour Authority.

Members discussed the potential impacts of the increasing storms and climate change, but were reassured that the River Hamble was quite sheltered and the newer works were very resilient. However, it would be monitored going forward.

RESOLVED

The River Hamble Harbour Management Committee recommended to the

River Hamble Harbour Board approval of the fees and charges set out in the report and advertise them on the River Hamble Harbour Authority website.
