To approve the grant of a 25 year lease at a peppercorn rent to the Listening Out Loud (LOL) Foundation for the occupation of 48 and 54 Lawton Street, Congleton on terms and conditions to be determined by the Property Portfolio Manager and Head of Legal Services.

Decision:

To approve the grant of a 25 year lease at a peppercorn rent to the Listening Out Loud (LOL) Foundation for the occupation of 48 and 54 Lawton Street, Congleton on terms and conditions to be determined by the Property Portfolio Manager and Head of Legal Services.

Minutes:

Consideration was given to an expression of interest from the Listening Out Loud (LOL) Foundation to occupy numbers 48 and 54 Lawton Street, Congleton by way of a 25 year lease at a peppercorn rent.

 

The properties in question were considered to be surplus to the Council’s operational requirements and were currently in the Council’s Disposal Programme.

 

The disposal of the properties would minimise the Councils holding and operational costs relating to them and was supported by local members; the proposal by the LOL Foundations would assist with the provision of temporary accommodation in the Congleton area and was expected to have cost saving and financial benefits to the Council.

 

RESOLVED

 

That approval be given to the grant of a 25 year lease at a peppercorn rent to the Listening Out Loud (LOL) Foundation for the occupation of 48 and 54 Lawton Street, Congleton on terms and conditions to be determined by the Property Portfolio Manager and the Head of Legal Services.
