Minutes:
The Director of Law, HR and Asset Management submitted a report seeking approval for the transfer by lease of Grange Road West Sports Centre following an application under the Council’s Community Asset Transfer Policy.
Mr J Davies addressed the meeting on behalf of the Grange Road West Community Sports Partnership (GRWCSP). He explained that their proposal would cater for a wide range of team sports whereas the BCDC was for a specific gymnastic centre.
In response to the suggestion that the proposed use might be considered to be too restrictive, BCDC had replied that, with the exception of court based activities (which would be lost), the sport and leisure activities on offer would increase.
Resolved:
That a transfer by lease of Grange Road West Sports Centre to Birkenhead Community Development Committee be agreed and the Director of Law, HR and Asset Management be authorised to complete the necessary lease on the terms set out in this report.
