Dear Sir or Madam,

Re Planning Application number 08/0315P.

It appears that the proposal to build a Foodstore under the above
application makes extensive use of the Civic Centre Car Park, an
asset belonging to Macclesfield Borough Council. Please provide the
following information in relation to The council's involvement in
this arrangement:

1. Can the Council confirm, under the Freedom Of Information Act,
whether there is any "contractual relationship between themselves and
Waitrose or Kimberley Developments plc. Such relationships may
include, but not be restricted to, option agreements, contracts for
sale or leases or any other arrangement under which the Council will,
or may, obtain a financial or other benefit.

2. If there is a Contractual Relationship can the Council provide
information upon: a) How the opportunity was marketed? b) How the
Council have achieved "best value" under S123 of the Local Government
Finance Act? c) What are the principle terms of any agreements
between the Council and Waitrose or Kimberley Developments?

Yours faithfully,

P Jackson
