* The future of Oakleigh House is still unclear. |
We did this
because the property has frequently been mentioned in connection with proposals
for a general health shake-up in the area.
Unfortunately,
the very guarded responses to our eight questions, do not shed much light on
what the board’s intentions are.
Here is the
basis of the reply from BCUHB:
Q1: Is
Oakleigh House, the now-empty former mental health resource centre situated on Abbey
Road, Llangollen, currently in the ownership of the Betsi Cadwaladr University Health
Board (BCUHB) or any other public organisation and precisely how long has it been
empty?
A: Betsi Cadwaladr University Health Board (BCUHB) owns Oakleigh House
and vacated the building in September 2010.
Q2: If in
the ownership of the BCUHB, does the BCUHB have any plans for its future use for
a health-related purpose?
A: No.
Q3: If not,
is the BCHUB actively seeking to dispose of the property by either sale, lease
or rent?
A: The Health Board is in the process of marketing the property for disposal
and are seeking initial advice from our Agent.
Q4: If the
property is already up for sale, lease or rent, what progress has been made to date
in this process?
A: Please see response to question 3.
Q5. If the
property is being offered for sale what is the current asking price?
A: Please see response to question 3.
Q6. Have any
offers so far been made by any party to buy or lease the property?
A: Some interest has been expressed.
Q7. If so, what
has been the result of any offers for the property?
A: Interested parties have been
advised of the Boards processes in the identification of surplus sites and
given assurance that they will be notified when the property is to be offered
for sale.
Q8. While
the property remains in public ownership, what is the annual cost of
maintenance
and security to the BCUHB?
A: £500 per annum.
