EAST SUSSEX COUNTY COUNCIL
Notice under The Local Authorities (Executive Arrangements) (Meetings and Access to Information) (England) Regulations 2012
On the 6 July 2021 the County Council intends to hold a meeting of the Lead Member for Resources and Climate Change at which the following item will be considered: Lease renewal at St Mary's House, Eastbourne.
The purpose of the item is:
To approve the Lease terms to renew the occupancy of St Mary's House, Eastbourne.
Under the requirements of Regulation 9 of The Local Authorities (Executive Arrangements) (Meetings and Access to Information) (England) Regulations 2012 the Council is required to give 28 days notice of a key decision identified within the scope of these regulations. It is considered that item referred to above would be a key decision and for the reasons of urgency outlined below, compliance is considered impracticable, and an exception to Regulation 9 is therefore sought under Regulation 10 of the above Regulations. It is considered impracticable to comply with the requirements of The Local Authorities (Executive Arrangements) (Meetings and Access to Information) (England) Regulations 2012 because:
Delaying the decision until the publication of the next forward plan and scheduled meeting of the Lead Member for Resources and Climate Change would not allow sufficient time to complete the lease arrangements prior to the renewal date. It is therefore considered impracticable to defer the decision until it can been included in the next forward plan.
Accordingly a copy of this notice shall be available pursuant to Regulation 5(6) for at least 5 clear days prior to 6 Jul 2021.
Date: 16 June 2021
