Issue details
Granting of rent for the Postal Museum re: their occupation of the Old Post Office and temporary accommodation going forward
Background
The Postal Museum is a tenant in the Council owned Old Post Office.
Due to unfavourable trading conditions the trustees of the Museum
have decided to close the institution.
Bath and Northeast Somerset Property Services have also identified
some building maintenance issues which require the Postal Museum to
vacate the space so that these can be explored and
remediated.
Decision Required
That a small grant is provided to the Museum to account for the
rent and service charged owed by them to the Council. That the
Postal Museum is provided with another Council owned space on a
temporary basis so that they may disperse their collection in an
orderly manner.
