Decision:

Decision to grant a tenancy at will and a lease to The Real Birth Company in respect of Unit 17, 7 Gomond Street, Maylord Orchards, Hereford.
1. The tenant has negotiated a deal to take the currently vacant unit.
2. The unit has been occupied sporadically over the past 24 months by temporary lettings.
3. The tenant wishes to take occupation of the property as soon as possible on a tenancy at will which will allow occupation whilst the lease is completed.
4. The proposed term is 5 years.
5. The terms agreed leave the Tenant responsible for payment of the rent, landlord Service Charge, business rates, insurance and utilities.
6. The Shopping centre comprises multiple retail units, some of which have been vacant for some time and it is important that occupation levels are maximized so that the holding costs incurred by the Council are mitigated.
