Devon County Council believe compliance with this request would exceed the appropriate costs limit under section 12 of the Freedom of Information Act 2000 which is £450 or 18 hours of officer time. The information would need to be collected from various sources, and each deed pack checked for each item.
In the interests of providing advice and assistance, we can tell you that the total asset value is c£370M. This valuation is for asset valuation purposes and does not reflect a marketable value of the site/building, therefore some sites or buildings will have a zero value. Marketable value is carried out on an establishment basis as required ie for marketing purposes.
