This report will recommend that Cabinet grants delegated authority to the Chief Legal officer in consultation with the Portfolio for Resources to let the above supermarket premises on the best terms reasonably obtainable.
Access to Information
The report together with any other documents being considered (unless they contain exempt information) will be available for inspection 5 clear days before the decision is taken by the Cabinet. Copies are available on the Council's website or requested from Democratic Services Medway Council, Gun Wharf, Dock Road, Chatham, Kent, ME4 4TR or email democratic.services@medway.gov.uk If you wish to submit information to the Cabinet about the item please also contact Democratic Services.
It is noted that the Local Authorities (Executive Arrangements)(Meetings and Access to Information)(England) Regulations 2012 requires 28 clear days’ notice of the intention to make a key decision.
On this occasion it has not been possible to provide this 28 clear days’ notice and therefore Section 10 (General Exception) of the above regulations have been complied with. This is because the Council has only just become aware that the property may become vacant and it is important that the Council mitigates it potential losses by aiming to re let the premises as soon as possible.
