Search the Public Notice PortalIpswich Borough Council is set to discuss "exciting options" for a former crown court building later this year, a leader has said.
Councillor Neil MacDonald, the Ipswich leader, revealed an options appraisal for the former court, in Civic Drive, was expected to be presented to the council by the end of the year.
The announcement came following a question from councillor Inga Lockington, Liberal Democrat representative for St Margaret’s ward, who pressed the Ipswich leadership on how much the building was costing the council.
The building, which the council owns, costs as much as £50,000 per year, the leader revealed.
Mr MacDonald did not reveal any details but said "exciting options" would be discussed.
Back in March last year, the old courthouse was subject to a small fire on the ground floor.
Later, in November, a council report showed empty buildings such as the former crown court, as well as St Peter's House, in Grimwade Street, made up for the majority of the £55,517 loss in business rates.
