Sale of Open Space Land
See notes
I consider that this is a request for information under the Environmental Information Regulations; it relates to information concerning the Council’s activities in relation to open space and is in the public interest to be disclosed.
1. Please list all open space land sold by the Council, including open space land sold by any of its predecessor authorities, since 13 November 1980.
None we are aware of but the information back to 1980 including Berkshire County Council as a predecessor to WBC prior to 1998 when BCC ceased to exist under local government legislation would no longer be held ( if ever in terms of BBC activity) WBC .
2. If the Council is unable to respond to question 1 (setting out the reason that may be the case), then, in the alternative and to the extent documents are retained and readily available, please list all open space sold by the Council, including open space land sold by any of its predecessor authorities, since 2000.
None known
3. With regard to the open space land listed as sold, please confirm whether the advertising requirements at section 123(2A) of the Local Government Act 1972 were followed.
The legislative requirement would be met
