The long awaited consultation on the future of the civic complex has begun and will run until the end of January. The civic complex includes the Town Hall, library, Assembly Hall theatre and police station.

I have concerns about the consultation in that it is being run by a company employed by the regeneration company rather than the Council. Also the consultation is a so called ‘early engagement’ one, so the questions asked do not relate to any specific proposals. However I do urge everyone interested to get involved with the consultation. If you feel that the questions asked do not relate to your concerns about the possible redevelopment of the Town Hall site you can submit your own additional comments as part of the process.

Details of the consultation can be found here.
