Excerpt:
Subject to final approvals, Tower Hamlets will issue a 30-year lease to the city farm. In turn, the city farm will pay an initial rent of £15,000 per year for the site, which can be reviewed every five years.
Although the farm, which receives a £31,000 grant from the council towards its costs, will effectively see the value of the grant cut as it’s paying nearly half of it back, the long-term lease will make it easier for the farm to raise money from other sources.
The decision follows significant public engagement and a record-breaking petition of 6,583 signatures, the largest in Tower Hamlets’ history, demonstrating community support for safeguarding the park and farm.
Sue Mortimer, Chair of the Mudchute Association Board of Trustees, said: “We are grateful to see this 30 year lease proposal progressing to Cabinet and for the recognition of Mudchute’s enormous value to the community. The strength of public support—thousands of signatures, donations and messages—has shown how deeply loved this space is.”
