THAT:
Approval is granted to accept the transfer of the freehold of the Land for GBC to maintain going forward.

Reasons for the decision:

To create a community garden for local residents of Redhill.

Alternative options considered:

An alternative would be to not accept transfer of the Land. However, this would mean that the Land would not be converted into a community garden for local residents to enjoy.
Another alternative would be to seek a lease of the Land but this would create uncertainty as to its continued use as a community garden at lease expiry.
