Issue details

Hexthorpe Flatts Cafe was formerly a toilet block which were delapidated and unfit for use and did not provide a good first impression for visitors. The toilets were put on the market to let in 2012 with a tender received to convert into a cafe which provided a much improved asset.
The tenant however has not been able to make a profit or break even since opening the cafe and has changed the status to a CIC. As an outcome of the change in status the tenant has approached the Council to operate the break clause in the existing lease and requested a new lease for a reduced rental.
