A report by the Director of Law, HR and Asset Management sought approval of the acquisition of two commercial properties included within the Church Road (Tranmere) Housing Market Renewal Initiative Area.  The Appendix to the report contained information relating to the financial and business affairs of third parties, and was therefore not for publication (Minute No. 427 refers).

The Cabinet was advised that following the acquisition and subsequent demolition of these properties, the site would be redeveloped to help achieve the corporate goal of providing new and affordable homes.  There was a target of 200 new homes across the Borough in 2011/2014.

RESOLVED:

That the acquisitions be completed on the terms set out in the reported.
