That:

1)        a pre-let with American Amusements Ltd be agreed to provide suitable alternative accommodation for the relocation of Wokingham Superbowl in new premises within the new multi-storey car park building on Carnival Pool site, subject to commercial terms;

2)        any further related and subsidiary decisions if required to complete the transaction, including a pre-let to an alternative operator on similar or improved terms if necessary be delegated to the Chief Executive, in conjunction with the Leader and Executive Member for Regeneration and Communities.

The Executive considered a report relating to a proposal to agree a pre-let with American Amusements Ltd (AAL) to provide alternative accommodation for the relocation of Wokingham Superbowl in new premises within the new multi-storey car park building on the Carnival Pool site.

The Executive Member for Regeneration and Communities informed the meeting that following the planning application being approved for the multi-storey car park consideration was being given to enabling the retention of the popular bowling alley.  It was therefore proposed that the bowling alley would be re-sited on the ground floor of the new car park.

RESOLVED that:

1)        a pre-let with American Amusements Ltd be agreed to provide suitable alternative accommodation for the relocation of Wokingham Superbowl in new premises within the new multi-storey car park building on Carnival Pool site, subject to commercial terms;

2)        any further related and subsidiary decisions if required to complete the transaction, including a pre-let to an alternative operator on similar or improved terms if necessary be delegated to the Chief Executive, in conjunction with the Leader and Executive Member for Regeneration and Communities.
