Minutes:
The Cabinet Member for Procurement, Assets and Shared Services considered a report on the sale of land off Middlewich Road, Sandbach.
PWB House, Middlewich Road, Sandbach was previously owned by Cheshire County Council, providing office accommodation for Cheshire Magistrates Courts. The ownership of PWB was transferred to Her Majesty’s Court Service a number of years ago and the former County Council had retained ownership of land and buildings to the rear of the site.
Citypark had provisionally agreed terms of sale for PWB House and had approached Cheshire East Council to purchase its site to incorporate within a redevelopment proposal for retail purposes. For reasons set out in the report, it was considered appropriate to recommend the sale of the site to Citypark without reference to the open market.
RESOLVED
That the Cabinet Member for Procurement, Assets and Shared Services approves the sale of an area of land off Middlewich Road, Sandbach, as shown edged red on the plan attached to the report, to Citypark for the sum referred to in the report and on such terms and conditions as are deemed appropriate by the Asset Manager and Borough Solicitor.
