06/02/2017 - Allotment Tenancy Revisions ref: 2117    Recommendations Approved

Decision Maker: Cabinet

Made at meeting: 06/02/2017 - Cabinet

Decision published: 14/02/2017

Effective from: 15/02/2017

Decision:

Cabinet received a report of the Head of Corporate Strategy and Client Services which set out the updates to the Tenancy Agreement for allotment tenants following consultation with site supervisors, benchmarking and feedback from the council’s partner, Veolia.

 

The Section Head – Parks, Open Spaces and Projects explained that the reason for the update to the tenancy agreement was discrepancies in the legal document which tenants signed compared to the terms and conditions of the allotments.  For example with regards to bonfires: in the terms and conditions these were not allowed but they were permitted under the old tenancy agreement. The new tenancy agreement had come to Cabinet as it related to a policy.

 

In response to a question from the Mayor, the Section Head – Parks, Open Spaces and Projects explained that prohibition of cultivation of allotments for commercial purposes was not in the old tenancy agreement; however, it had been included in item 26 of the new agreement.  There had been consultation with allotment stakeholder panels and site supervisors.

 

Following a question from Councillor Bell, the Section Head – Parks, Open Spaces and Projects explained that most of the Farm Terrace allotment tenants had been relocated.  Subsequent to prices being received from contractors for moving, the remaining tenants would be relocated in time for the new growing season.

 

RESOLVED:

 

That Cabinet formally endorses the new tenancy agreement.
