Questions from County Councillors

Any county councillor may, by giving notice to the Proper Officer by 9 am two working days before the meeting, ask a question on any matter in respect of the Cabinet Member’s delegated powers.

 

The number of questions which may be asked by any councillor at any one meeting is limited to two (or one question with notice and a supplementary question at the meeting) and the time for questions will be limited to 30 minutes in total. As with questions at Council, any questions which remain unanswered at the end of this item will receive a written response.

 

Questions submitted prior to the agenda being despatched are shown below and will be the subject of a response from the appropriate Cabinet Member or such other councillor or officer as is determined by the Cabinet Member, and shall not be the subject of further debate at this meeting. Questions received after the despatch of the agenda, but before the deadline, will be shown on the Schedule of Addenda circulated at the meeting, together with any written response which is available at that time.

Promotion of Council Land for Development

The information contained in the report is exempt in that it falls within the following prescribed category:

 

3       Information relating to the financial or business affairs of any particular person (including the authority holding that information).

 

It is considered that in this case the public interest in maintaining the exemption outweighs the public interest in disclosing the information, in that such disclosure would distort the proper process of free negotiations between the authority with another party for the purposes described and would prejudice the position of the authority in those negotiations and other negotiations of a similar nature in future.

Report by Director for Property & Investment (CMDPCS4).

 

Evenlode Farm (28 hectares / 70 acres) and Tank Farm (36 hectares / 89 acres) are two of the largest holdings within the Council's portfolio which are capable of development within the current Local Plan period and as such the Council needs to take appropriate steps to ensure its interests are protected. It is recommended in both cases that the Council will need to collaborate with adjoining land owners to develop a planning application.
