Agenda item

Report from the Strategic Director of Finance and Customer Services.

Recommendations:

1.    That Cabinet approves the disposal of 1 Treefield Close at Market Value.

2.    That the Assistant Director of Planning, Regeneration and Transport negotiates the terms and conditions of the disposal on the basis set out within exempt Appendix 2.

Consideration was given to the report which sought approval to dispose of No. 1 Treefield Close at market value which would be determined independently by the District Valuer. The Council had determined that the property was no longer required for operational purposes and as such, was surplus and proposed for disposal.

The property, identified edged red within the attached Appendix 1, had been used previously by Adult Social Care services for a Respite Centre. Following Cabinet Approval on 21st May, 2018, for the transformation of the Learning Disability Service over the period 2018-2020, Treefield Respite Centre was decommissioned, and services were relocated from the existing building to alternative care and support provided within the local community. As a result of this, Treefield Respite Centre became surplus to the service requirements.

The valuation of the property when it is to be disposed of is to be determined by the District Valuer which was detailed in exempt Appendix 2.

Resolved:-

1.    That Cabinet approves the disposal of No. 1 Treefield Close at Market Value.

2.    That the Assistant Director of Planning, Regeneration and Transport negotiates the terms and conditions of the disposal on the basis set out within exempt Appendix 2.
