To update the Executive in relation to the proposed acquisition of land within the County

Considered:

The report of the Corporate Director, Strategic Resources regarding the potential acquisition of a property in the county.

County Councillor Don Mackenzie introduced the report confirming it was unnecessary to go into private session as all Executive members were happy to note the report and there were no questions arising.

Executive Members all voted in favour of the recommendations in the report and it was therefore

Resolved – That:

i)     It be noted that negotiations for the acquisition had ceased, for the reasons set out in Section 4 of the report;

ii)    It was no longer considered appropriate to purchase the property;
