Oakham Town Council will be discussing various issues at the next Council meeting. It is likely the public will be excluded from the meeting at that point due to the confidential nature.
The Fitness Centre rents the building from Oakham Town Council for a rent much lower than the market value due to the nature of the lease. this is the same for the tennis club and bowls club. all exclusive members clubs subsidised by Oakham Town Council.
Durring the short time I was a Town Councillor, I noticed from the accounts this Fitness Company was at that time in rent arrears.
I asked the Clerk what was being done, he said don't worry they will pay sometime.
If they are in arrears I suggest Oakham Town Council seek repossession for none payment of rent, before they go bust due to the opening of Stevenage Leisures New High Tech Gymn at Camose.
The building should be then used as a local community / arts centre which I am sure would be well used by the deserving local residents.
If you have a view about this matter let the Town Council know you can do this by attending next Wednesdays meeting.
