23/2007 The Cabinet approved the principle, as
landowner, of establishing a market on the Commercial Road Car Park
in Strood.
24/2007 The Cabinet requested that the Director of Community
Services and, if appropriate, other officers use their delegated
powers to seek all necessary statutory approvals to enable the
Commercial Road Car Park to be used as a market.
25/2007 The Cabinet delegated authority to the Director of
Community Services, in consultation with the Portfolio Holder for
Strategic Development and Economic Growth, to finalise the
management arrangements including procurement and leasing/licensing
the site, if required.
The balance of local opinion (from residents
and businesses) is in favour of retaining a market in Strood and
support from the Council in establishing the market on a council
owned site will, it is felt, prevent the market from closure, and
on balance be of benefit to businesses in Strood.
