Minutes:
Councillor Ian Brookfield presented the report on a proposal to dispose at auction, three garage sites within the Housing Revenue Account. The sites had been assessed as part of a review of a larger list of council assets that are currently underused or problematic and had been considered for housing development potential. Whilst the sites sit within residential areas, and would lend themselves to additional housing development, they all have development constraints which mean they would be expensive or time-consuming to bring forward, or they have limited potential in comparison to other council sites which could be developed more quickly and for better value for money.
Resolved:
1. That the disposal at auction of Parry Road garage site, in Wednesfield North Ward, as shown on the plan attached at Appendix 1 to the report be approved, subject to obtaining outline planning approval for residential use.
2. That the disposal at auction of Ashmore Avenue garage site, in Wednesfield North Ward, as shown on the plan attached at Appendix 2 to the report be approved, subject to obtaining outline planning approval for residential use.
