  • CQ419 - 11 from Councillor Gerry Ryan
    CQ419 - 11 from Councillor Gerry Ryan LE Can the Leader reassure all Elected Members following the recent scandal of phone and email hacking that none of their Council phones or email accounts has been subject to such abuses. Reply We have no evidence or reported incidents of phone or email hacking. CQ421 - 11 from Councillor Eddy Arram LE If the reserves of the Council were at their August 2005 level would the Council have been in a position to offer help to those residents and businesses that had been affected by the wanton damage caused during the riots to the level that in fact did. Reply Our reserves for the year ended 2005/06 were £4.530m compared to the current reserves balance of £11.597m. This is clearly substantially better than the all time low of a few hundred thousand created by the Labour Administration. It is estimated that the full cost of the damage incurred by Croydon will be met by Government funding. The Government has made available, nationally;- ¾ A £10 million Recovery Scheme to assist Councils with the immediate costs of making their areas safe and clean again, and ¾ a £20 million High Street Support Scheme to both assist local firms that were affected by the riots to rebuild their business and to rebuild community confidence and hence trade in the areas in which they are located. Croydon has an indicative allocation of £2m from this fund. At an early stage the Council identified and put at risk £100,000 to help those families directly impacted by the recent civil unrest in the borough.

  • 7 Altyre Rd, Croydon, Cr9 5Aa Croydon Park Hotel Croydon Park Hotel
    7 ALTYRE RD, CROYDON, CR9 5AA CROYDON PARK HOTEL CROYDON PARK HOTEL EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Exceptional opportunity to purchase a prime freehold hotel in the centre of Croydon’s Commercial District. Substantial 137,000 sq. ft. full-service hotel with 211 guestrooms, car parking, food and beverage facilities, conferencing and event space and fitness and leisure facilities set on a1.54 acre site. The purpose-built Hotel opened in 1984 and was previously operated under an international hotel brand before operating independently until the hotel’s closure in 2020. Available with vacant possession, unencumbered by brand, franchise or management, providing optimal operational and development flexibility with substantial potential to increase value. Prime town centre location in the heart of Croydon in close proximity to East Croydon station, one of London’s busiest stations with 25 million passengers in 2019. Croydon has benefitted from significant recent investment and is set to benefit from further significant investment to regenerate the town centre. Croydon’s strategic position and excellent transport links make the town attractive to key corporate occupiers that have established Croydon as a premier business location in south London. Extensive asset management opportunities including: hotel repositioning; extension of the existing property; or redevelopment of the site to increase the massing and change of use (subject to obtaining the necessary planning and all other consents) to potentially superior alternative use values. The Hotel is situated in the Croydon Metropolitan Centre, the Croydon Opportunity Area and the ‘Edge Area’ for tall buildings, all of which are supportive in principle for additional massing on the site and for alternative uses, potentially unlocking more accretive development proposals.
