Decision details
Hereford Enterprise Zone – land transfer to Western Power Distribution and relevant easements for new electricity substation and cables at Shell Store, North Magazine.
Decision Maker: Director of Economy and Place (Historic)
Decision status: Recommendations Approved
Is Key decision?: No
Is subject to call in?: No
Purpose:
Work is underway on the refurbishment of the
Shell Store at the Hereford Enterprise Zone. Approval for a new
substation was given by the Acting Directory for Economy and Place
on 6 June 2019 at a cost of £51,103.82 + VAT.
WPD policy is to acquire freehold for the base of their substations
with rights of access to allow them to maintain and repair their
assets. However due to an oversight by WPD, a land transfer and
wayleave agreement was not put in place before work on the
substation commenced. A temporary wayleave was granted but now a
land transfer for the substation base is required. This agreement
will assimilate the rights previously granted within the temporary
wayleave.
Property services have been consulted and have approved the
transaction.
