Land Disposal at Canberra Road and Aldermans Green Road, Longford PDF 1 MB Report of the Deputy Chief Executive (Place) Minutes: The Cabinet Member considered a report that identified two parcels of land as surplus to the strategic operational requirements of the Council.
The land, at Canberra Road and Aldermans Green Road, Longford, may have the potential to be developed either as a stand-alone site or as part of a wider development site with an adjoining land owner. The ability to build on the land for residential, commercial or the extension to a garden was subject to obtaining any necessary formal consents or approvals.
The report indicated that the Council, acting as planning authority, is, in principle, supportive of opportunities to promote urban regeneration throughout Coventry and had indicated that the two sites may be acceptable for development subject to full consideration through the planning application process. A plan of the sites and planning policy comments were appended to the report. The preferred method of disposal would be via tender process having sought expressions of interest. The capital receipts would be received in this financial year.
RESOLVED that the Cabinet Member for Jobs and Regeneration:
1. Declare the two sites listed in Appendix 1 of the report as surplus to requirements. 2. Approve the freehold disposal of each site identified in Appendix 1 of the report by way of tender. 3. Delegate authority to the Director of Finance and Corporate Services, in consultation with the City Solicitor, to agree the final terms of the land transactions, complete the necessary legal documentation and collect the consideration obtained for the sale. |
