Issue details

Property Holdings (Rolling Entry)

The County Council’s West Sussex Plan sets out its ambition to minimise the burden of local taxation, delivering the best outcomes for residents with the money it spends, whilst living within its means.  In 2018 the County Council agreed to adopt an Asset Management Policy and Strategy.  An objective of the strategy is to acquire, manage, maintain and dispose of property effectively, efficiently and sustainably, together with optimising financial and commercial opportunities.

 

To accord with Standing Orders, this report advises on the outcome of the marketing of vacant semi-detached houses no 1, 19 and 20, Littlegreen Gardens, Compton and adjoining land and seeks the approval of the Cabinet Member for Finance and Property to dispose of the County Council’s freehold estate in the property.    Offers have been received and approval is sought to sell to the preferred and highest bidder.
