After thorough investigations, it was concluded that the villas were not fit for purpose and would be better replaced with a new sustainable Civic Centre.
The villas have small cramped offices, poor ventilation and sunlight, long corridors, narrow inaccessible stair cases and constantly changing floor levels.  The villas are not suitable for wheelchair users or those with mobility issues, including staff.
If we want to drive economic productivity, we need to increase our footprint and there is enough space across the site to allow this improvement whilst also improving the environment for our staff and customers.
