Disposal of land at Grandstand Road
09/04/2026 - Disposal of land at Grandstand Road
To dispose of a small area of adjacent to
Grandstand Road to the neighbouring house owner for nil
consideration.
A request has been received for the transfer from the adjacent
house owner.
The Highway Adoptions and Infrastructure Improvements Delivery
Manager has confirmed that the land is no longer required for
future highway improvements.
For more than 30 years the land has been fenced off and maintained
to a high standard as part of the garden of the adjacent house,
there has been no attempt by the council to restrict this
occupation.
It is considered that a claim for adverse possession by the house
owner would be successful.
