BUSINESS TENANTS - RENT CONCESSION Minutes:
The public interest test in respect of this report outweighs the public interest in disclosing the information contained therein as disclosure would harm the businesses to which the report applies, undermining their position in the marketplace and potentially put jobs at risk and cause harm to the local economy.
[Note: At this point in the proceedings Councillor G. Davies declared a personal interest in this item, he remained in the meeting during its determination and voted.]
The Executive Board noted, as previously reported at its meeting on the 29th June 2020, the COVID 19 pandemic has had a significant negative impact on the business economy in Carmarthenshire. In view of the likelihood that businesses would continue to struggle financially in the foreseeable future, the Executive Board considered a report which provided detailed options open to the Authority for continuing to assist with rent concessions for its business tenants.
With Carmarthenshire Council having a significant business portfolio with one of the highest tenancy occupation rates in Wales, members also considered the potential revenue implications for the Authority as set out in the report.
RESOLVED that Council business tenants are offered a 50% rental concession for July and a further 25% concession for August. The concession would only apply to those tenants who are able to evidence hardship, which will be assessed on a 50% reduction in turnover for July.
