That the Council will grant the
licence.

Reasons for the decision

The Council owns the freehold
of Venture House. The first floor of the building is set up to
provide small office work spaces which are fully serviced (except
non domestic rates which are the licencee’s
responsibility).
 
The licence for Room 3 has
expired and the occupier of that would like a further licence for
18 months and in addition would like to take a further room –
Room 4.
The Council has the right to
give one month’s notice (after an initial period).
The fee to be charged is based
on the schedule of fees previously agreed by the Council and
amounts to £1095 per calendar month for both
rooms.
 
The Council’s rights are
protected as the agreement is being drafted by Legal
Services.
