Officer Delegated Decisions
Wednesday 1st August, 2018

State the Delegated Authority that you are relying on in order to make the decision 
Subject of decisionTo acknowledge the final sale price of land at Centre Square for the development of buildings 1 & 2.
Text of decisionWithin the reports of the 6th September 2016 and 19th December 2017 the Executive Sub Committee for Property and Executive endorsed the proposal of the land at Centre Square for office development to Ashall Projects LTD. The decision was approved on the basis of the Council receiving the market price for the land.
Reason for decisionExternal advice was sought from the GVA to determine the land value. The advice came back that the land for the proposed purposes had value of nil consideration. Ashall Projects LTD submitted an offer of £175,000 per acre less abnormals for the site. The abnormals submitted were verified by the Council's Design Services Team as being justified, when deducted from the £175,000 per acre for the site this gave a negative value, therefore it was capped at £0 for the site with the Council receiving £1.
