Minutes:

The Portfolio Holder for Housing and Assets presented the report which sought Cabinet approval for a revised Community Asset Transfer of The Old Abattoir, Bishops Castle to The Bishops Castle & District Community Land Trust for use as a community food bank.

 

Members’ attention was drawn to an error in the preliminary section where the proposed transfer duration is noted as 125 years, and not the correct proposed term which is 90 years.

 

Members welcomed the proposal which would benefit many people in the Bishops Castle area.

 

RESOLVED:

 

That

 

3.1. Cabinet approves the principle of a 90 year lease.

 

3.2. Cabinet grants delegated authority to the Head of Property and Development to finalise terms of the lease and complete the transaction.
