(LGA 1972 Sch 12A Paragraph 3 – Financial or business affairs of any particular person)
(Report of Director of Central Services)
The report gave details of four property agreements due to be entered into prior to the next meeting of the Finance, Innovation and Property Advisory Board. It was noted that the current delegation to the Director of Central Services to agree terms and complete licences/leases was restricted to those under one year in duration. It was considered appropriate to seek an extension to the delegation to deal with short term property arrangements in the interests of the efficient running of the Council.
The Cabinet resolved that:
(1) the Council be recommended to authorise the Monitoring Officer to amend Part 3 of the Constitution to give effect to the following change to the Director of Central Services’ delegation DCS 105 to read “To approve terms for granting leases and licences of five years or less for land or premises owned by the Council”; and
(2) the Director of Central Services be authorised to agree and complete the four property matters referred to in the report on the terms outlined therein.
