Park Road
Wharf Lease.
The desirability of obtaining an extension of
the term of years granted by the existing lease of the Park
Road Wharf was carefully considered by your Committee,
this Wharf and premises being now held by the Yestry
under two leases.
The portion next the Canal, part of which is proposed
to be used for the erection of the building to contain the
steam disinfector (ordered by the Yestry to be purchased)
is about half an acre in area, at £105 per annum, nine years
unexpired.
The freeholder of this portion has offered to grant a new
lease of 60 years (the existing lease to be surrendered) at
£125 per annum.
The Committee resolved:—That the Yestry Clerk be
empowered to enter into an agreement with the freeholder
of the portion of the Peckham Park Road Wharf, now held
for an unexpired term of nine years at £105 per annum, to
surrender the existing lease upon a new lease being granted
for 60 years at an annual rent of £125, and that part of such
land be used for the erection of the building to contain the
disinfector, and the necessary ofticcs and rooms connected
therewith.
