The sale of two plots of land that could net Wirral Council hundreds of thousands of pounds has been delayed.
The authority’s economy, regeneration and housing committee had been due to sign off on proposals to dispose of its freehold interest in Dominick House, Liscard, for £230,000 and land on Cross Lane, Wallasey, for £150,000 when it met on Monday evening. However, it was confirmed that owing to an impending by-election in Liscard, the Dominick House transaction would be put on hold.
The further sale of Cross Lane is now also being deferred owing to technical issues. Committee chair Cllr Tony Jones said further reports on the matters would be brought to the group.
