Minutes:

Councillor Jacqueline Sweetman presented the report on a proposal to lease the former Compton Youth Centre to Windmill Community Church.  The property had been vacant for some time, was in a significant state of disrepair and would require investment to bring it back to an occupiable standard. The Council had been approached by the Church who expressed an interest in the property to transform it into a vibrant community hub and place of worship.  The proposal had been positively received during a community consultation.

 

Resolved:

1.    That the letting of the former Compton Youth Centre to Windmill Community Church on a 99-year peppercorn lease, subject to terms be approved.

 

2.    That authority be delegated to the Cabinet Member for City Assets and Housing in consultation with the Deputy Chief Executive to approve the terms of the lease.
