Minutes:
The Cabinet Member for Resources & Financial Governance (Councillor Callton Young) highlighted the delegated decisions which had been made by Cabinet Members and by the Director of Commissioning & Procurement (Rachel Soni).
The Shadow Cabinet Member for Communities, Safety & Business Recovery (Councillor Andy Stranack) raised concerns that the background document on Interim Asset Disposals gave control to significant areas of greenbelt to outside organisations and partners, and that this risk had not been properly considered. Furthermore, it was noted that the consultation on the Heathfield House proposals had closed on Friday and the Shadow Cabinet Member queried whether there was an update following that consultation ending.
In response, the Head of Asset Management & Estates (Stephen Wingrave) stated that 75 comments had been received in response to the notice placed, with most raising concerns in relation to school children and conservation volunteer access to the site. Members were advised that the council were working with the Ecology Centre to established a solution to those concerns and were assured that the council considered all comments received.
