Issue details

Disposal of Land and Property Assets

The Council holds a broad range of land and property assets; some of those provide limited amenity, others present cost risks with many offering alternative opportunity. A number of Executive Decisions will come forward in the short to medium term, all of which will be ‘key decisions’ taken by the Portfolio holder, declaring a range of land and property assets surplus and seeking to dispose of them. In all cases, due process will be followed so they can be put to the market and disposed/let in the most appropriate way including but not being limited to their freehold disposal or being let on a long or short tenancy.
