Councillors commented that the current condition of the site was not ideal, and that disposal may therefore be beneficial. Councillors also commented that were the land be subject to residential development they would encourage the provision of affordable housing, similar in style to nearby properties.

RESOLVED – That, subject to the comments of the Area Committee, the Deputy Chief Executive be recommended to dispose of the site at Melford Road, Hazel Grove as identified in the report.
