Dear Sir,

I refer to your Freedom of Information request dated the 1^st May, 2018.

Please find below the Authority’s response to your request:-

Questions:-

I have recently been told that IOACC have, in their capacity as landlord,
given the RSPB permission to install parking meters at the South Stack
Site.  I have searched your website, but unfortunately have not been able
to find any information regarding this matter, but if it is published
there I would appreciate a link to the correct area.  Please note, I'm not
referring to the forthcoming planning meeting which is obviously a
separate matter.

May I ask the following regarding this matter please:

1.  Is this information correct (I believe that the RSPB were informed
that the Council had no objection to this action)?

If the information is correct, can I also ask:

2.  What justification was supplied to the Council by the RSPB for siting
meters at this location.

3.  Who (by name or position) was the responsible person for taking such a
decision and did they in fact agree to the request?

4.  If the post holder at para 3 was not an elected councillor, what
democratic oversight was put in place and was there agreement from the
elected representative(s).

Answer:-

1. Landlords consent has been sought and provided, subject to the receipt
of planning approval.

2. The justification provided by the RSPB included:

a) To provide additional income to support ongoing operations and new
developments at South Stack.

b) To improve car parking capacity and traffic flow.

c) To lessen the deficit that the RSPB reserve currently operates at.

3. Formal decision making on property management matters has been
delegated to officers via the Head of Service (Highways, Waste & Property)
through the Council's constitutional delegation and more specifically
through the Council's Asset Management Policy and Procedures document.

4. Democratic oversight was conducted through consultation only.
Observations were sought from relevant local members for consideration
prior to the decision to provide Landlord's consent.

The information supplied to you in response to your request is the
copyright of the Isle of Anglesey County Council.  The information has
been provided for your personal use and may not be copied, distributed,
published or exploited for any commercial purposes or financial gain
without the explicit written consent of the Isle of Anglesey County
Council.

If you are dissatisfied with any aspect of this response to your request
for information and/or the decision made to withhold information, you may
ask for an internal review.  Please address your correspondence to the
Customer Care Officer, Legal Services, Council Offices, Llangefni, Ynys
Môn, LL77 7TW (e-mail: [1][email address]).

If you are not content with the outcome of an internal review you have the
right to apply directly to the Information Commissioner, Wycliffe House,
Water Lane, Wilmslow SK9 5AF.  Please note that the Information
Commissioner is likely to expect internal review procedures to have been
exhausted before beginning his investigation.

Yours faithfully,

Helen Jeffery

Good afternoon Mr.Sharman,

Please find below clarification in regard to your FOI Request:-

The RSPB provided a briefing paper to the Council which was labelled 'confidential'. This document contained details that 'included' the justifications previously provided. Without obtaining permission from the RSPB to release the 'confidential' document I cannot expand on the information I have already provided.

The 3 local members were consulted, and their observations taken into consideration when arriving at the decision to give conditional Landlord's consent. This does not mean the local members were necessarily supportive of the application. Such decisions are delegated to officers as previously stated.

If you require any further information please do not hesitate to contact me further.

Kind Regards,

Helen Jeffery
