A NEW 18-month lease for the Ilkeston Citizens Advice Bureau to continue to be based at the Albion Centre is expected to be confirmed next week.
The bureau has been at the Albion Centre for the past five years.
Councillors at next week's Erewash Borough Council meeting are expected to approve extending the lease, which will ensure the Citizens Advice Bureau team, part of the Derbyshire Districts Citizens Advice Bureau, can remain in the centre.
The council converted part of the centre into offices for the Citizens Advice Bureau offices in 2010, when it moved in.
The current lease runs out on June 23 and terms for the new 18 month lease to run until December 24, 2016, have been provisionally agreed.
Councillor Carol Hart, Erewash Borough Council's deputy leader and lead member for community engagement, says: "The Citizens Advice Bureau team offers an important service to the residents of Erewash and we are pleased to be able to offer the new lease so they can continue to be based at the Albion Centre.
"The 'rolling' short-term leases ensure flexibility in the use of the building for both the council and Derbyshire and Districts Citizens Advice Bureau."
The council executive meeting will be held at Ilkeston Town Hall on Thursday, February 26, at 10.30am.
