Decision due date: Not before 08/06/2020
Lead officer: Beverley Gouveia
Notice of decision: 05/06/2020
This decision will be taken under urgency procedures.
Reason for urgency:
The decision is urgent and cannot be deferred because the Property Department has received numerous requests from commercial property tenants seeking financial assistance with rental payments as a result of Covid 19. Despite Government support to businesses during the lockdown period, tenants have still found themselves in exceptional financial difficulty and have turned to the Council as Landlord for assistance.
The support measures need to be implemented urgently to allow Officers to negotiate flexible rental payment terms with tenants, to provide financial support to tenants therefore minimising the risk of tenant failure, and securing income to the Council.

Lead officer: Jo Pettifor
Notice of decision: 05/06/2020
This decision will be taken under urgency procedures.
Reason for urgency:
The decision is urgent and cannot be delayed because the Department of Health and Social Care’s guidance requires that, in order to ensure that the relevant infection control measures are put in place as speedily as possible, Local Authorities must accept the grant and make the relevant payments to providers as soon as they can, on receipt of their allocations.
Anticipated restriction: Open
