Decision Maker: Chief Operating Officer
Decision status: Recommendations Approved
Is Key decision?: Yes
Is subject to call in?: Yes
The properties are no longer required for East
Sussex County Council (ESCC) operational purposes.
Marketing and disposal of the properties will meet the requirements
of the Capital Grant Agreement and provide a capital receipt for
NHS projects, whilst minimising any ongoing maintenance and revenue
implications connected with the Properties for ESCC.
The decision delegated to the Chief Operating Officer by the Lead
Member for Resources and Climate Change (LMRCC) at the 11 October
2022 meeting.
Following a marketing period of 6 weeks via a
local Estate Agent, the properties are to be sold to the preferred
purchasers.
The prices obtained are considered to be the best value that can
reasonably be obtained. The properties have been appropriately
marketed on the open market and an independent valuer has validated
the respective offers.
This was the only option considered to secure
best value in accordance with s123 of the Local Government Act
1972.
