Issue - meetings

The Shadow Executive considered a report which was listed as item 7 on the agenda for the Executive meeting on 30 May, at page 23.  The report presented a shortlist of potential sites for relocation of the Peaseholme Centre and sought approval to carry out consultation with local residents, businesses and community groups around the shortlisted sites.

Having discussed the issues set out in the report, the following comments were agreed:

The Shadow Executive:

• Considers it essential that the Peasholme Centre be re-provided, and upgraded in the process.
• Considers that reprovision of the Centre on the Hungate redevelopment site should not be ruled out and would like to see more information addressing that possibility.
• Considers that the site at 17-21 Piccadilly should not be ruled out either.
• Notes that there are still errors in the amended Annex 1 to the report regarding the status of some of the sites – for example Parkside is known to be empty – so even the revised annex is not as accurate as it should be.

RESOLVED:(i)         That the Executive be asked to take the above comments into account when considering this item.

                        (ii)        That the item not be called in.
