Sandwell Council Launch A Consultation For The Draft Community Asset Transfer Strategy

by Karen Tuckley

Sandwell Council wants to consult with residents on its draft Community Asset Transfer Strategy.

A Community Asset Transfer is a process which lets a community organisation take over the management of publicly owned land or buildings (and in certain circumstances associated services) and is usually undertaken at less than market value, in recognition of the public benefits that the community use will bring.

The Council are keen to co-design their strategies and policies in a transparent manner wherever possible. Sandwell Council is committed to a process that will bring benefits to communities and contribute towards achieving the Council´s Vision 2030.

The Consultation will be open between 15th July and 24th August 2024. To see the document and answer the questions in the survey, click here: https://consultationhub.sandwell.gov.uk/regeneration-growth/community-asset-transfer-strategy
