Issue details

Land at Spider Park, Sevenfields Lane

At its meeting on 8 May 2013 Cabinet resolved that, subject to the outcome of public consultation and the provision of replacement open space, the Property be declared surplus to the requirements of the City Council. By the 2013 Report Cabinet were advised that the Property was intended for disposal to a developer for the purposes of residential development on the basis that part of the capital receipt would be used to fund a replacement play area. Following a period of marketing a preferred developer was identified, who has undertaken considerable due diligence and has now confirmed that it would only be able to proceed on the basis that the Additional Land is also included in the sale.

The revised proposal is to incorporate the Additional Land comprising 0.13Ha (0.34 Acres) which will predominantly accommodate an extension to Sevenfields Lane and the provision of a pedestrian route through the site. Additional works by the preferred developer will be required to improve the Council's retained adjoining greenspace to compensate for the loss of the Additional Land.
