Consultation process

The Deputy Chief Executive met with the Director Built Environment and Regulatory Services and the Strategy and Engagement Manager twice to consider the nominations against a set of criteria:

A.      Is the nominating organisation eligible?

B.      Can the nominating organisation demonstrate a local connection to the asset?

C.      Does the nomination include the information requested on the nomination form?

D.      If the asset is outside one of the categories of exempt assets, as set out in schedule 1 of the regulations?

E.      Is there evidence of the use being described in the nomination, and that this is the main and non-ancillary use of the land or premises, or this has been its use within the last 5 years?

F.      Does this use further the social wellbeing and social interests of the local community?

G.      Could the asset realistically continue to be used for this, or another qualifying community purpose (or could this be achieved within the next five years)?

 

The results of this assessment for all 24 nominations are attached as appendix 2.  Both officers supported me in this decision.
