To agree to requesting the court for another
extension of 1 months in the timetable for a court hearing date to
be set, to allow further time for the new lease between the Council
and the tenant to be concluded.
.
The lease is a protected tenancy under Part II
of the Landlord & Tenant Act 1954 and were an extension in
timescale not agreed, the court would be contacting the parties to
set a court hearing date which would be premature given the
progress made in negotiations to date.
.The decision meets the statutory requirements
for the Council and there are no alternative options available
apart from a court hearing date being set which would be premature
and involve the council in increased costs which are not necessary
