PORTFOLIO AREA: | Resources | |||
SUBJECT: | 1 & 2 Golf Course Cottages, | |||
AUTHOR: | Alison Jolliffe | |||
| ||||
THE DECISION | ||||
Having read the report, including its recommendations and proposals, and following consideration of all other relevant matters, the decision-maker made the following decision: - | ||||
To authorise the granting of a new lease to Hamwic Housing Co-Operative Limited for Numbers 1 and 2 Golf Course Cottages at below market rent as detailed in appendix 1. | ||||
| ||||
REASONS FOR THE DECISION | ||||
The lease expired on 17th March 2006. HHCL are currently occupying the premises by way of a Tenancy at Will. It is in the interests of both parties for occupation to be regularised by granting a new lease. | ||||
HHCL provide a service, which assists in addressing the City’s housing needs. | ||||
A short-term flexible letting to HHCL will enable the Leisure Culture & Tourism portfolio to develop a strategy for the long-term use of these premises. | ||||
| ||||
| ||||
DETAILS OF ANY ALTERNATIVE OPTIONS | ||||
Obtain Vacant Possession of the premises for the Councils own use – At this time the Leisure, Culture &Tourism portfolio does not have an immediate strategy or funding in place for the use of the premises. | ||||
Allow HHCL to remain in occupation without granting a new lease. The Co-Operative currently occupies the premises by way of a Tenancy at Will. A new lease has to be granted in order to protect the Councils position regarding tenancy rights. | ||||
Obtain vacant Possession - Allowing the premises to become vacant will result in the properties attracting vandalism and adverse publicity. | ||||
Grant a new lease to HHCL at full market rent – HHCL would be unable to operate their service if a full open market rent is demanded. | ||||
| ||||
