Decision details

Surplus Declarations of Five Assets FP06 (24/25)

Decision Maker: Cabinet Member for Finance and Property (Cllr Jeremy Hunt)

Decision status: Recommendations Approved

Is Key decision?: Yes

Is subject to call in?: Yes

Purpose:

The report seeks approval by the Cabinet Member for Finance and Property to confirm surplus declarations for a number of assets deemed surplus to service operational requirements.

 

Declaring them surplus enables a further decision to be made on either a sale of the asset (for a capital receipt) or to retain it for wider non-service led activities of the County Council such as redevelopment for investment, regeneration, social, community, environmental use or active travel, particularly where this could complement the Council’s ambitions relating to climate change where it is viable.

 

Decision:

The Cabinet Member for Finance and Property has approved that the County Council declares the following assets surplus to service operational requirements:

 

1)   Severals Bottom Land, via Owlbeech Way, Horsham, West Sussex, RH13 6RH

2)   Holding 154 Flansham Estate, Hoe Lane, Felpham, Bognor Regis, West Sussex PO22 8NT
