A representative of the Deputy Chief Executive (Corporate and Support Services) and Deputy Chief Executive submitted a report (copies of which had been circulated) which provided the Area Committee with information about a nomination received for an Asset of Community Value and to determine whether to include the Newboult Road allotments on the list of Assets of Community Value.

The Area Committee was reminded that Newboult Road Allotments (the Asset) could be determined an Asset of Community Value if it met those criteria set out in paragraph 3.1 of the report. Officers confirmed that the Asset was within the Local Authority’s area and that it did not fall within one of the exemptions specified in the Regulations.

RESOLVED – (1) That the Area Committee determines that the Asset’s main use (i.e. not ancillary) had recently or was presently being used to further the social wellbeing or social interests of the local community and could reasonably do so in the future i.e. within the next five years.

(2) That Newboult Road allotments be added to the list of Assets of Community Value.
