That the Cabinet agree:
1) That the two garage blocks known as 49-60 Glenister house (12 garages) and garage block known as 61-69 Glenister House (9 garages) are no longer required for the purposes for which they were or are currently used and that they be declared surplus to requirements as per the site plan attached showing the two sites.
2) That the garages be appropriated from the General Fund to the Housing Revenue Account with effect from 31 March 2022, in order that the garage sites can be incorporated into the proposed development of the wider estate for general needs housing as set out in the report.
Reasons for decision
Cabinet agreed to transfer the garages at 49-60 and 61-69 Glenister House, Avondale Drive, Hayes from the Council’s General Fund Budget to the Housing Revenue Account Budget. The Cabinet Member for Property, Highways and Transport explained how this would assist the Council in facilitating the redevelopment of the wider estate. The Leader of the Council welcomed the associated plans for new homes.
Alternative options considered and rejected
None, as not to proceed would have prevented the sites being incorporated into the Estate Regeneration Project.
