The Board takes most
major Council decisions. It recommends the Budget and Policy
Framework to Full Council and is responsible for implementing these
policies and spending the budget. The Board also monitors
financial and non-financial performance against corporate targets
and budgets.

Get involved at City Executive Board meetings
Councillors can
address the Board
Oxford City councillors may, when the Chair agrees,
address the Board on an item for decision on the agenda (other than
on the minutes). The member seeking to make an address must notify the Head of Law and Governance by 9.30am at least one clear working day before the meeting,
stating the relevant agenda items. An address may last for no more
than three minutes. If an address is made, the Board member who has
political responsibility for the item for decision may respond or
the Board will have regard to the points raised in reaching its
decision.
Councillors speaking on Neighbourhood issues (10
minutes in total)
Any City Councillor can raise local issues on behalf
of communities directly with the Board. The member seeking to make
an address must notify the Head of Law and Governance
by 9.30am at least one clear working day before the meeting,
giving outline details of the issue. Priority will be given to
those members who have not already addressed the Board within the
year and in the order received. Issues can only be raised once
unless otherwise agreed by the Board. The Board’s
responsibility will be to hear the issue and respond at the
meeting, if possible, or arrange a written response within 10
working days.
Items raised by Board members
Such items must be submitted within the same
timescale as questions and will be for discussion only and not for
a Board decision. Any item which requires a decision of the Board
will be the subject of a report to a future meeting of the
Board.
