Guisborough development plan to go on display

RESIDENTS in Guisborough can have their say on a 15-year development plan for the area at an exhibition this week. The blueprint for the town will be on show in mobile exhibition bus in the town's Fountain Street car park from November 15 to November 17, from 10am to 4pm.
 
Councillor Joe Keenan said: "It is really important that we connect with the people of the town. They know what is needed for us to help us make a difference."

 

The public has already responded to the invitation to get aboard the Love It Hate It roadshow, with around 1,500 visiting the exhibition bus at its stops in, Saltburn and various locations in Greater Eston. The 40 day tour is expected to collate thousands of ideas from people about what they love or hate in the borough.

 

Councillor Keenan said: "We want to get people involved in Guisborough, not just simply commission design professionals and architects to tell us what they think. We need to get residents views on how this area should be regenerated. We're going to see millions of investment in the coming years and the roadshow gives the people who live and work here an opportunity to have their say."

 

The Council is working in partnership with the regional development agency, One NorthEast, to create a robust Regeneration Masterplan to identify multi-million pound economic opportunities, sports, leisure and housing developments across the area.
