Summary 1.1 The purpose of this report is to authorise a change of use at the shop property at 30 Glenburn Road, Paisley. 2. Recommendations 2.1 It is recommended that the Board: i) Authorise the Head of Corporate Governance to conclude a lease of the shop property at 30 Glenburn Road, Paisley on the basis of the change of use detailed in this report. ___________________________________________________________________ 3. Background 3.1 Mr Mohammed Ashraf became the tenant of 22, 28 & 30 Glenburn Road, Paisley in March 2006. Number 22 trades as a Licensed Grocer & Newsagent and has a current annual rental of £8,400. Number 22 is used for storage only, at a rent of £3,960 per annum. Both of these rents were set in January 2018. Number 30 is also used for storage purposes, and since 2012, has been leased in the name of Mr Ashraf’s wife, Farhat Ashraf. The current rental at this address is £3,800. 3.2 The Infrastructure, Land & Environment Policy Board on 21st March 2018 approved new 10-year leases at each of these shops, subject to the continuation of the existing uses. These proposed new leases have not yet concluded. Circumstances have changed and the shop at 30 Glenburn Road is no longer required for storage purposes. Mrs Ashraf has requested the Council’s consent to open this unit as an Ice Cream Parlour & Confectioners.
