Decision:

The land formed part of the smallholdings disposal in 2017, in accordance with the cabinet decision dated 13th October 2016, a blanket overage provision was imposed on farm buildings and other land in regards to any future change of use.

The owner has obtained planning permission for change of use on areas under the overage provision. The councils appointed agents Atcham’s have negotiated and agreed, based on the terms of the overage deed, a value of £39,000 to partially lift and vary the terms of the agreement.

As the land has been sold on since 2017, the new buyers are obligated to enter into a deed of covenant binding them to the provisions in the overage deed.
