This consultation is open from 23 December 2025 to 03 February 2026.

Every year, the Council publishes the details of all of our assets (property that the Council owns), and what we plan to do with them (whether we will sell them, lease them, acquire new ones and how we manage them.)

The details of our Asset Management Plan are available to download from this page.

Introduction to the Asset Management Plan

This plan explains how the Council looks after its buildings and land. These include parks, car parks, leisure centres, offices, and the Royal Victoria Place shopping centre. The plan makes sure these places are safe, useful, and good for the environment.

The Council owns many different properties. Some are used for services like housing and leisure, while others are rented out to make money. Keeping them in good condition costs money, so the plan helps decide what needs fixing first and what can wait. It also looks at which buildings the Council might sell or improve.


What’s in the plan?

  • Maintenance and Repairs
    The Council spends money on planned and emergency repairs. See the Maintenance Budget Table on page 12 for how much is spent each year.
    The Ten-Year Spend Table on page 14 shows how much will be needed over the next decade to keep buildings safe and working well.

  • Property List
    The Council owns lots of sites, from parks to car parks and housing. These are listed in the Asset Registers starting on page 26.
    For example, there are 12 parks, 23 car parks, and 34 housing sites.

  • Future Plans
    Some buildings might be sold if they are not needed. Others could be improved or rebuilt. For example, Royal Victoria Place will have new shops and leisure spaces.

  • Saving Energy
    The Council wants to be “net zero” by 2050. This means cutting carbon emissions and using greener energy. Old heating systems will be replaced with cleaner ones. For example, the plan includes replacing the Town Hall heating system, which also serves the Amelia Scott building, the theatre, and the police station (see details in the Ten-Year Maintenance Plan table on page 14).
