Background:

The report sought the Cabinet’s approval to updating the Employee Scheme of Delegation (and the associated financial limits) in respect of certain property matters. The updated delegations would cover: increasing the financial limits on matters that are delegated to officers in respect of the grant, entering into, or variation of the terms of leases or sub leases and similarly, to enter into and vary the terms of easements, licences, agreements, covenants or other rights or documents subject to financial limits; adding the giving and taking of surrenders of leases; and the appropriation of land and property.

Reasons:

Approval of these updates to the Employee Delegation Scheme and financial limits enables the Council’s Property team to complete income generating property.
