Reason for urgency:
in respect of Café Unit at Outdoor Sports Hub, Kingsway, Heads of Terms for the lease are agreed and practical completion of the property is due on 6 September 2024. As a Key Decision the lease cannot complete until Cabinet agrees the recommendation. A delay to the lease completion would leave the building sitting vacant beyond practical completion at cost to the council. In addition, any delay to the lease completion will delay the council’s public announcement about the tenant and the café’s occupation.
