The document stated: “In the current financial year capital receipts totalling £44.5m have been realised.

“The Council’s Estate Management Strategy which was approved by Executive Board in November 2021 sets out the principles which guides our estate provision, but one of the key considerations is around ensuring that our estate is well utilised and that surplus properties are released in a timely way.”

Sales that have taken place over the past few months include Skelton Moor Way (the site which includes the Amazon warehouse), The Leonardo and Thorseby buildings in the city centre, and the East Lodge at Temple Newsam.

Among the sites targeted to be sold before the end of the current financial year, in March, are Micklefield House in Rawdon, Bramley Housing Office, and Millshaw Offices.
