Proposed disposal of Highfield Road Car park for Affordable Housing

05/02/2024 - Proposed disposal of Highfield Road Car park for Affordable Housing

Decision

RESOLVED

 

-       To agree that Highfield Road is surplus to requirements

-       That NNDC enter into an option agreement with Flagship Housing (subject to Planning Permission) for sale of the Highfield Road car park to be developed for affordable housing.

-      That demolition of the existing toilet block on the site is undertaken as soon as is possible

 

Reason for the decision:

 

The development of the Highfield Car park offers the opportunity to make better use of an under-used car park, to deliver badly needed affordable homes, to generate a capital receipt and to reduce the current revenue liabilities at the site.
