Reason
for Decision
The
allotments were due to be transferred by Weymouth & Portland Borough
Council to WTC in the 2019 reorganisation order as the provision of allotments
is not a function of a unitary authority.
For historical reasons the allotments were situated on land owned by the
former Dorset District Council which had never been transferred to WPBC and
could therefore not be included in the reorganisation order. The land vested in DC and is now being
transferred as planned to WTC.
