"Over the last two years, significant investment has been made into the club’s infrastructure, re-engaging fans and shifting the club’s position in the table.
"Now the club can focus on the long-term future of the club whilst having a positive impact on the town and its people, taking football into schools, providing better facilities for people to learn and train, whilst having a positive impact on the town’s economic growth."
A wider strategic partnership between the council and the club will also be considered by the cabinet.
