Councillor Leggatt moved that the request by the Trust to extend the lease be refused. The motion failed to find a seconder and Councillor Leggatt requested that his dissent be recorded. Councillor Edwards joined the meeting during consideration of this item.

Decision The Sub-Committee noted that the application had been withdrawn.

(a) Kinghorn Town Hall (Previous Minute Reference : Paragraph 7 of 04.C.C.G. 3) The Sub-Committee considered a report by the Local Services Accounting Team Leader (Report No. 407) giving an update on work carried out to Kinghorn Town Hall to secure and allow access to the building prior to the commencement of restoration works. It was indicated that during the course of the work, a number of matters of concern had been expressed by the engineer relating to the stability of the building and it was anticipated that an additional sum of £43,000 would be required to ensure safe access to the building. Further funding of £5,000 had, therefore, been sought from the Common Good towards the costs involved. Decision The Sub-Committee agreed to make a further contribution of £5,000 towards the cost of the work required to allow safe access to the building, subject to the approval of Kinghorn Community Council. 04.C.C.G. 12 (b) Land at Mid Myre - Assignation of Lease The Sub-Committee considered a report by the Local Services Accounting Team Leader (Report No. 408) outlining the background to the lease of 1.8 acres of land at Mid Myre, Kinghorn to Mr. Archibald Page. It was indicated that the ground was leased to Mr. Page at a nominal rent of £100 per annum on the understanding that the land was used to grow produce, including fruit and vegetables, for sale at a reduced rate, on a non-profit making basis, to local residents. The operation had been taken over by Mr. Martin Melvin who had requested that the lease be assigned to him on the same basis as previously agreed for Mr. Page. Decision The Sub-Committee agreed that the lease be transferred to Mr. Melvin on the existing terms and conditions and renewed for a further period of one year, subject to the approval of Kinghorn Community Council. ------------------------ Directory: uploadfiles -> publications publications -> Accelerated Reading Parent Information Leaflet uploadfiles -> This Week On Columbo The Case Of The Disappearing Israel a short summary of the following broadcast is found at uploadfiles -> U.
