RESOLVED:

To authorise the Corporate Director for Community Wealth Building, following consultation with the Corporate Director of Resources and Acting Corporate Director of Homes and Neighbourhoods, to enter into the agreement for lease and subsequent lease of the unused car park under a housing scheme on Basire Street on the terms set out in exempt Appendix 2 of the report of the Executive Member for Finance, Planning and Performance, along with the delegation to amend any such reasonable matters during the completion of the necessary paperwork.

 

Reasons for the decision – The ability to generate substantial long-term income for the Housing Revenue Account from non-operational property assets provided a much-needed revenue stream to the Council to reinvest in social housing. Additionally, in keeping with mitigating environmental and amenity concerns, the proposed use created opportunities to support both residents and the local business community with storage opportunities in the vicinity.

Other options considered – none

Conflicts of interest / dispensations granted – none
