Content

That the Community Asset Transfer Policy is
approved.
 
Authority is delegated to the Director of
Communities, in consultation with the Cabinet Member for Enterprise
and Property, to make amendments to the policy when deemed
appropriate to do so, in the opinion of the Director acting
reasonably and properly.

Reasons for the decision

A policy is required to allow
HDC to transfer assets to parish councils and other community
organisations where they are able to demonstrate capacity and
capability to do so.

Alternative options considered

Continue with the current
arrangement whereby there is no policy basis for the transfer of
assets to parish councils or community associations.
