The decision arises out of the tenants’ request for landlord’s consent to carry out alterations comprising erection of a new general purpose agricultural storage building which is permitted under the terms of that lease subject to the consent of the landlord who must not unreasonably withhold or delay the grant of consent.
The tenant has complied with the terms of their lease and there is no reasonable ground on which consent should be withheld
The licence will require the tenant to seek and obtain all necessary planning, building and any other necessary approvals
Not granting consent may place the council in breach of its obligations under the lease
Permitting the construction of the new building will enable the tenant to improve the service offered to local businesses who use the market
