Land purchase at Crow Wood Lane, Widnes

Meeting: 21/02/2019 - Executive Board (Item 101)

Land purchase at Crow Wood Lane, Widnes

Minutes:

The Board considered a report of the Strategic Director, Enterprise, Community and Resources, which sought approval for the purchase of land at Crow Wood Lane, Widnes.

 The Board was advised that the Council had been successful in a bid for funding for the purchase and adaptation of properties which provided suitable accommodation for those that required a supported living environment.

It was reported that there was a lack of suitable properties in the Borough, and so a decision had been made to purchase land at Crow Wood Lane, Widnes, and to develop it with high quality, bespoke new-build accommodation.

          RESOLVED: That Executive Board

1)    approves the purchase of land at Crow Wood Lane, Widnes; and

 

2)    authorises the Operational Director, Legal and Democratic Services and the Operational Director, Economy, Enterprise and Property, to conclude all necessary documentation required to complete the sale.
