Issue - decisions

The Cabinet Member has agreed:

1.   That the current Withy Patch Gypsy and Traveller Site be declared surplus to service operational requirements on the basis that the County Council enters into a development agreement with The Community Stadium Limited (TCSL) for TCSL to construct a new Gypsy and Traveller site, to an agreed specification, within the New Monks Farm development; and that

2.   Authority is delegated to the Director Property and Assets in consultation with the Director Law and Assurance to complete the development agreement and the land transfer transaction.

In response to a recommendation from the Performance and Finance Scrutiny Committee, at a meeting on 15 April,  the Cabinet Member has also agreed a phased approach to any rent increases for tenants of the new Gypsy and Traveller site, particularly whilst the building development is taking place.
