The Localism Act 2011 required local authorities to keep a list of assets (meaning buildings or other land) which were of community value.

A nomination had  been received from the residents of Honeypot Lane, Hive Close, Weald Close, Weald Road, Hill Road and Langley Drive on 1 February 2016 attached to the report as Appendix A  in relation to land off Honeypot Lane as indicated on the site plan, attached to the agenda as Appendix B and appended to the minutes for clarity. The officer presenting the report made it clear to all Members that there were two land registry entries and therefore two maps of the land were tabled to ensure all present were aware of the area of land under discussion.

Members were requested to consider whether or not to list the land as an Asset of Community Value. 

Cllr Russell MOVED and  Cllr Chilvers SECONDED that  recommendation 2.1 (Option1) in the report be approved.

Following a discussion, a vote was taken by a show of hands and it was

RESOLVED

That Option 1 be approved:  To list the land as indicated on Appendix B of the report as an Asset of Community Value.

REASON FOR RECOMMENDATION

The report provided guidance to allow Members to make an informed decision as to whether to list the nominated asset as an Asset of Community Value.
