To approve the High Street Rental Auction
Policy
Decision type: Key
Decision status: Recommendations Approved
Notice of proposed decision first published: 15/01/2025
This decision will be taken under urgency procedures.
Reason for urgency:
Originally, the Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government had requested those Local Authorities invited sign up to the programme by 9th January 2025, however that date was relaxed at the end of December to enable Council’s to fully consider and progress appropriate approvals via their respective governance process. On 17th January MHCLG confirmed they would require Council’s to return the terms of reference by 20th January if they wish to be part of the programme.
Accordingly, the use of Regulation 11 urgency powers is recommended to avoid the Council missing out on the option to be part of the HSRA Early Adopter programme.
Decision due: 20 Jan 2025 by Executive Member - Leader of the Council
Lead member: Executive Member - Highways, Travel and Assets
Lead director: Executive Director - Place and Economy
