Additional documents:

Decision:

(Report of Director of Central Services and Deputy Chief Executive)

 

The report provided details of the proposed disposal of two areas of public open space in Borough Green to Borough Green Parish Council.

 

It was reported that the sites had no borough-wide significance and, as local amenity areas, would be best served by the Parish Council taking over responsibility for them.  Covenants would be included in the transfers stating that the land could only be used as public open space.  A small saving would be generated by the Borough Council not having to maintain the areas in future.

 

Following consideration by the Finance, Innovation and Property Advisory Board, the Cabinet Member for Finance, Innovation and Property resolved that:

 

(1)             The two areas of open space at Crowhill and Staleys Acre be transferred to Borough Green Parish Council as detailed in the report.
