Acquisition of strategic site in the HS2 Station Masterplan area

The acquisition of a strategic site adjacent to Chesterfield railway station will support the Council to achieve its growth objectives and kick-start the delivery of the emerging HS2 Station Masterplan. The short-term availability of LEP grant funding allows the Council and its partners to work at a pace and scale which could not be supported by the Council’s own resources.

“That the Executive Director, in consultation with the Cabinet Member for Economic Growth, be granted delegated authority to continue to negotiate the details of the heads of terms, in line with the due diligence advice, and, subject to satisfactory agreement, enter into a conditional contract leading to the acquisition and leasing of the specified land.”
