Decision details

(Report of Chief Executive)

Details were given of progress to date on the Local Neighbourhood Centres Programme, an initiative which sought to provide grant support to local traders for implementing improvements in those centres.  A proposal was considered to redefine Quarry Hill Parade as a “district centre” eligible for grant assistance up to £7,500 rather than the £3,000 available to “local neighbourhood centres”.

Following consideration by the Economic Regeneration Advisory Board, the Cabinet Member for Economic Regeneration resolved that:

The progress in the programme be noted and the proposed increase in grant for the Quarry Hill area, as detailed in the report, be approved.
