·        
Declare
the garage sites set out in this report surplus, subject to
achieving vacant possession with an agreed and reasonable
timeframe.

·        
Notify any
tenant affected on a site by site basis through the
SOPM.

·        
Appoint an
agent to offer the sites to the market on an ‘offers above
£X’ basis – with X being the lower cost range of
their red book valuation, and,

·        
Authorise the (Strategic & Operational Property
Manager) to accept offers for the garage sites where a written
opinion of a suitably qualified Registered Valuer is obtained that
confirms that the offer represents ‘market value’ such
that the requirements of s123 of the Local Government Act 1972
would be satisfied if accepting any offer; rejecting any that
cannot be so assured.

·        
Work with existing tenants to relocate should the
opportunity be available.
