Full council record
Purpose
Proposed new access licence across land adjacent to Windsor Street carpark to the rear of 8 Mansell Street
Decision
That the Council will grant a new licence to the existing licensee.
Reasons for the decision
A number of commercial properties in Mansell Street back on to the SDC land and some access their parking via it. There is a new occupier of 8 Mansell Street. A new licence ensures that the occupier of No 8 does not gain any rights to the access.
The proposed licence is for 14 months (the length of the occupier’s agreement for No 8), with an annual fee of £990 payable monthly in advance, with the licensee covering SDC’s legal costs.
SDC is protected from risk due to the involvement of Legal in the drafting.
Alternative options considered
- Agree to grant the licence; or
- Decline to grant the licence.
