Notice Title

WP3304 - 4A Pleck Library Community Asset Transfer

Notice Description

Walsall Council is offering the opportunity for a voluntary and community sector organisation to occupy the various current Library premises through the council's Community Asset Transfer programme. Walsall Council welcomes expressions of interest from voluntary and community sector organisations or several organisations working as a consortium who have the necessary expertise and imaginative proposals to take over the occupation of these buildings and make them available for use to the wider community. As part of the closure decision, the council has decided that opportunities for the community use of these buildings should be explored. The council therefore now wishes to explore Community Asset Transfer (CAT) as an alternative way of keeping the buildings open and available for use by the wider community. If any local small community groups are interested in being involved in the future use of these buildings, but do not have the capacity or do not wish to submit their own expression of interest, they may provide their contact details to the council. In order to facilitate contact between interested parties, the council will be pleased to share contact details with organisations or groups interested in developing a joint or consortium proposal, on request and in exchange for the contact details. Proposals from commercial organisations or projects that do not deliver, social, economic and environmental benefits to the local community and the people of Walsall will not be considered. The Council is in receipt of an unsolicited expression of interest for the former Pleck Library building. However to meet the criteria of the CAT process we have now advertised the asset to allow other community groups to express an interest. We are interested in VCS organisations who are interested utilising the premises for the delivery of community activities and services. lease ensure that you answer all the questions identified on the application form and attach copies of your annual accounts for the last 3 years. Additional information: Walsall Council have a new Contract opportunity. For further details of the requirement, please see the following link to the Councils' e-Procurement web portal; https://in-tendhost.co.uk/walsallcouncil You will be required to register your organisation (if already not done so) and express your interest in the relevant project/opportunity.
