Decisions:

West View, Crewe was formerly utilised as an elderly persons’ care home and had been declared surplus to operational requirements by Adult Services.An internal consultation process had confirmed that there were no internal re-uses.

 

There was a need for affordable housing across Cheshire East and there were not sufficient market-led proposals coming forward for development to meet that need.

 

West View adjoined a site that provided affordable housing within Crewe and it was felt that the site lent itself to the provision of a similar scheme.

(1)   West View, Crewe be formally declared surplus to the requirements of Cheshire East Council and be disposed of for the provision of affordable housing on terms and conditions to be determined by the Borough Solicitor and Assets Manager; and

 

(2)   the property be included within the first phase of the Strategic Housing Sites Development Programme.
