Seabank Car park, Middlewich - Ground Lease
Decision Maker: Cabinet Member for Finance
Decision status: Recommendations Approved
Is Key decision?: No
Is subject to call in?: Yes
Purpose:
National Grid has had a Gas Governor situated on land adjacent to Seabank Car Park for a number of years and could, therefore, technically claim prescriptive rights. By granting a lease to National Grid, Cheshire East Borough Council can negotiate terms and conditions without losing all rights if the lease wasn’t granted.
The Gas Governor is situated to the East of Seabank car park, as shown on the plan attached to the report, and not on part of the Car Park so it doesn’t require a change to the Car Park Order.
To formalise the situation, safeguard the Council’s position, and in the interest of good estate management, it is recommended that the Council grants a lease to National Grid.
Decision:
To enter into a 21 year ground lease with National Grid on terms and conditions agreed by the Property Services Manager and Borough Solicitor.
