To authorise in-house solicitors to prepare a
comprehensive Title Report for Flaxmean, covering substation access
rights, easements on the access road, and other relevant legal
considerations impacting potential redevelopment.

Reasons for the decision

The Title Report is required to clarify legal
rights and restrictions affecting the site, ensuring informed
decision-making for future redevelopment plans and compliance with
council responsibilities under delegated authority.

Alternative options considered

External legal appointment: Not pursued as
in-house solicitors are available and cost-effective.
Proceed without Title Report: Rejected due to risk of unidentified
legal constraints impacting redevelopment
