Purpose:

To seek approval for a lease renewal for a Community Asset Transfer (CAT) Lease of Mayfield Centre (Former Children Young People & Family Centre), Mayfield Road, Leicester, LE2 1LR to the An Nasihah Educational Trust for 25 years outside of the Landlord and Tenant Act 1954.

Decision:

To approve that An Nasihah Educational Trust shall be granted a renewal of their CAT lease for a new longer term of 25 years, contracted outside of the Landlord & Tenant Act 1954 at an annual rent of £28,000 with 5-yearly rent reviews (previously, An Nasihah had a 5-year lease term).

Reasons for the decision:

The approval of the CAT lease will support a community service provision. The decision is reserved to the City Mayor as the lease term extends over 7 years.

Alternative options:

Option of freehold disposal was discounted in favour of a continued community service provision as the existing tenant has met all conditions relating their CAT lease obligations of their existing tenancy.
