Decisions

As part of the redevelopment and refurbishment of the Hartham Leisure Centre the Council needs to install a new electrical transformer sub-station and is required and in order to achieve this is required to grant a lease of the land to the utility company for 99 years at a rent of £1 per annum. The installation costs have been previously granted approval as part of the Hartham Leisure Centre project and the grant of this lease will not incur any further costs or loss of existing income for the Council. The Tenant will be responsible for all future liabilities and outgoings for the site.

The Head of Strategic Finance and Property acting under authority delegated within Section 10, paragraph 10.13.16 of the council’s Constitution 12 May 2022, relating to the letting of property, has decided to approve the grant of a lease to Eclipse Power Networks Ltd for a new electrical transformer substation at Hartham Leisure Centre, Hertford.
