Moratorium period
The council was informed of an intention to dispose of Great Ayton Allotments on 8 November 2023 and an Interim Moratorium Period was put in place ending on 20 December 2023. On 23 November 2023 a request was received from Great Ayton Parish Council to be treated as a potential bidder for the property. The written request from an eligible community interest group within the Interim moratorium period initiated the full moratorium period that will operate for six months from 8 November 2023 to midnight on 7 May 2024.
During this period the owner may continue to market and negotiate sales but may not exchange contracts or enter into a binding contract to do so later. There is one exception where the property may be sold to a community interest group during the moratorium period.
If a bid is received, the owner may choose to accept or decline the offer and, once the full six month moratorium period has ended, they are free to sell to whomever they choose and at whatever price. No further moratorium will apply for the remainder of a protected period lasting 18 months ending on 7 May 2025.
