LAND AT RHOSGOCH

 

The Treasurer reported that the Secretary of the Charitable Trust has received an offer for the land at Rhosgoch from Solicitors acting on behalf of Company 'A'.  Following the receipt of the offer, the Chairman of the Sub-Committee agreed to calling of an urgent meeting to discuss the matter.

 

Following the advice of the Charities Commission, the Sub-Committee should now appoint a qualified surveyor in accordance with the regulations as set out in Section 36 of the Charities Act 1993, to advise on the offer and to state whether or not the offer could be accepted and why.

 

He further noted that on 27 February, 2002 the Charitable Trust resolved to earmark a maximum of £20,000 towards possible fees in connection with the Trust's land.  

 

The District Valuer would be able to act for the Charitable Trust.  Within the organisation, they have valuers with capacity and expertise in the energy field.  The hourly rate normally quoted for local authority work is up to £130 per hour for senior valuation staff.  This compares favourably to private sector rates.

 

Following deliberations it was RESOLVED :-

 

1.1

to appoint the District Valuer to advise the Isle of Anglesey Charitable Trust in relation to the present offer for the land at Rhosgoch.

 

1.2

that a meeting of this Sub-Committee be convened following receipt of the response of the District Valuer to the offer for the land.
