Austin Road, Demolition Notice

Bromford

HOUSING ACT 1985 as amended by the Housing Act 2004 (the "Act")

ADVERTISEMENT - NOTICE PURSUANT TO SCHEDULE 5A PARAGRAPH 2(2)

In respect of an Initial Demolition Notice

TAKE NOTICE that Bromford intend to demolish Austin Road flat numbers 26 to 36 and 38 to 48 (even), Cirencester, Gloucestershire, GL7 1BT ("the relevant premises"). This is to allow for the building of new homes as part of Bromford's Regeneration Programme.

The demolition of the relevant premises is required to secure the comprehensive redevelopment of Austin Road flat numbers 26 to 36 and 38 to 48 (even). The reason for the demolition is the outdated design and issues with anti-social behaviour. The flats have also been difficult to let to customers.

Proposed Demolition Period

We intend to demolish the Premises within a period commencing 25 January 2024 and ending with 24 January 2031.

Date by which this Notice shall no longer have Effect

The Initial Demolition Notice (as defined in paragraph 1(1) of Schedule 5A to the Act) will cease to have effect on 24 January 2031 (the "Notice Period") unless revoked or terminated under or by virtue of paragraph 3 of Schedule 5A to the Act.

Effect of this Notice

From the validity of the Initial Demolition Notices we will not be under any obligation to complete any preserved right to buy. This Notice does not prevent any tenant making such a claim for the preserved right to buy or the taking of steps up to (but not including) completion of such a claim. If we subsequently serve a final demolition notice pursuant to paragraph 13 of Schedule 5 to the Act the preserved right to buy will not arise whilst that final demolition notice is in force and any existing claim will cease to have effect.

Right to Compensation

If any tenant has submitted to us a claim for the preserved right to buy before the service of an Initial Demolition Notice, that tenant has a right to compensation in respect of legal and other fees and other professional costs and expenses paid by a tenant in connection with the exercise by that tenant of the preserved right to buy providing any such tenant provides receipts or invoices etc.

25 January 2024

For and on behalf of Bromford, Shannon Way, Ashchurch, Tewkesbury, Gloucestershire, GL20 8ND.
