    Community Asset Transfers

    Requested Tue 12 February 2019
    Responded  Fri 08 March 2019

    I am requesting three specific pieces of information.

    1.       Details of all Community Asset Transfers which have been made by the authority since 2000.   This includes:

    a.       All assets for which full ownership has been transferred to a community group under General Disposal Consent for a nominal or below-market-value fee.

    b.      All assets which have been leased to a community group on a long-term, peppercorn lease arrangement

    c.       Any other similar arrangements which the authority has put in place and classifies as a "Community Asset Transfer"

    We request that the data is made available in a spreadsheet or database format which is readable using freely available or MS Office software (e.g. Excel, Google Docs etc.) and that the following fields are included:

    ·         Name of asset

    ·         Address, including post code, of asset

    ·         Type of asset - e.g. leisure centre, village hall, library etc.

    ·         Type of transfer - sale, long-term peppercorn lease, etc.

    ·         Date of transfer

    2.       Details of all Assets of Community Value which have been listed in your area since 2011, as required by the Localism Act 2011.  

    We request that the data is made available in a spreadsheet or database format which is readable using freely available or MS Office software (e.g. Excel, Google Docs etc.) and that the following fields are included:

    ·         Name of asset

    ·         Address, including post code, of asset

    ·         Type of asset - e.g. leisure centre, village hall, library etc.

    ·         Date of listing

    3.       Details of any Community Engagement Strategy or Policy.  By this we refer to any current strategy or policy document which sets out how the authority engages with the community and/ or seeks to increase community participation in local decision-making (above and beyond statutory requirements such as Planning Consultations or local elections).
