So....hot off the press.....
The Council will publish an update to the land and stand deal tomorrow, Friday. The Trust Board have been invited to a Zoom meeting at 6pm tomorrow evening to discuss the finer points of the deal and to make any comments.
A "special" meeting of the Council will take place on 21st February specifically to discuss the deal, this will be open to the public, details to follow from the Council.
The feedback from that will be taken on board by those present and then the Council Cabinet will meet, again in an "extraordinary" Council meeting with just the one item on the agenda, on 28th February and at this meeting it is expected that a final yes/no decision to the deal will be given.
We are led to believe that the terms of the deal and the major points surrounding the finances and structure of the deal are pretty similar to those proposed back in October/November.
I will of course feed back what I can from the meeting with the Council tomorrow night, by which time the deal details will be back in the public domain.
Sounds promising
