A proposed home for a Liverpool non-league football club that never got off the ground is expected to be transferred into community ownership.
Adlam Park in Fazakerley had been touted as a potential home ground for City of Liverpool FC since their formation in 2015. The sports pavilion on the Liverpool Council owned green space is now earmarked as one of four city assets that the local authority could offload into community hands.
Under the council’s newly adopted community asset transfer policy, a quartet of sites across Liverpool are to be marketed for disposal to external parties, subject to agreement by its cabinet when it meets on Friday. Community asset transfer (CAT) is the transfer of land and property from the council to the ownership and/or management of a third sector organisation, including voluntary and community organisations, social enterprises, and other not-for-profit groups.
