Decision details

To obtain the Executive’s approval to the heads of terms provisionally agreed with Hampshire and Isle of Wight Community Rehabilitation Company to occupy part of a floor within the Civic Offices.

The Council has been in discussions with Hampshire and Isle of Wight Community Rehabilitation Company to occupy vacant space in the Civic Offices as a base for services within Fareham. This will have advantages to the Council as it will build on the leases granted to the Wessex Youth Offending team and Hampshire Constabulary and will secure an additional public sector organisation to occupy space in the Civic Offices. The rent and service charge paid by Hampshire and Isle of Wight Community Rehabilitation Company will help offset the running costs of the building.  Confidential Appendix A to this report sets out the heads of terms provisionally agreed with Hampshire and Isle of Wight Community Rehabilitation Company for the approval of the Executive.

RESOLVED that the Executive:

(a)       approve the heads of terms provisionally agreed with Hampshire and Isle of Wight Community Rehabilitation Company; and

(b)       delegates authority to the Director of Finance and Resources, in consultation with the Executive Leader, to agree final terms, if required.
