s77 Consultation Notice Proposed Disposal by Way of a Lease

The Town Council has received notification from Kent County Council that they have been approached with a request to site a telecoms mast on part of the St Saviours C of E Primary School playing field. This will require Kent County Council to enter into a lease with the operators granting them rights to site the mast on the school's playing field. In accordance with s77 of the School Standards and Framework Act 1998 the lease to the operator is deemed to be a disposal of playing field, therefore Kent County Council seeks a decision from the Secretary of State for Education and wishes to consult with local residents and anyone with an interest in this proposal.

The consultation is open from 18th November 2022 until 30th December 2022. Any person or organisation wishing to make written representations in relation to the request by the operators to lease this playing field can do so via the Kent County Council website - https://letstalk.kent.gov.uk/st-saviours-s77 or by post marked for the attention of David Easthope, Kent County Council, Sessions House, County Hall, Maidstone, ME14 1XQ. Please ensure that all responses reach Kent County Council by 30th December 2022.
