Resolved:-

2. That the possible opportunities to support evolving plans to enable the building to be let and re-occupied be considered, where appropriate and viable.

 

3. That it be noted that the current tenant has no plans to sell the leasehold interest at this stage and therefore the suggestions for the Council to purchase the building back for the Prittlewell Prince or any other use are not pursued at this time.
