Decision details

Councillors D Flude and S Jones had both declared  a personal interest in this item.

Consideration was given to the findings of a re examination of the proposed closure of 291 Nantwich Road, and to the transfer of services to the nearby Hilary Centre.  In addition proposals were put forward for the future of the building.  The proposal was in line with good practice whereby mental health day services, where possible, were based away from day care centres in more socially inclusive settings. 

RESOLVED

1. That approval be given to the closure of 291 Nantwich Road once the remaining groups have transferred to the Oakley Centre.

2. That, when it has been vacated, 291 Nantwich Road be declared surplus to the service requirements of the Adult, Community, Health and Wellbeing Directorate, and that officers be authorised to take the necessary actions to implement the proposals.

3. That approval be given for the property to be appropriated to the management of the Assets Manager and for consideration to be given to the use of the property by other Services within the Council or otherwise.
