Issue - decisions

Resolved:

                         i.         Supported the overarching aims of the Vision for the city centre approved in November 2021, which set out an inclusive vision for residents and business.

Reason:     To re-launch the Vision for the city centre and re-focus

partner collaboration and drive delivery.

                        ii.         Approved the updated themes which set out the key aims of the Vision and emphasise the focus on residents and city centre businesses through the change in name to “Our” City Centre.

Reason:    To reflect the current priorities for the city, emphasising

the importance of the city’s residents and of creating an inclusive city through the Vision and subsequent delivery strategy.

                      iii.         Instructed officers to work with the Economic Partnership to bring together key partners and stakeholders to promote effective collaboration on delivering the Vision for the city centre through the

creation of a joint delivery strategy.

Reason:     To ensure that the Our City Centre Vision is collectively

owned by stakeholders and communities. A jointly owned delivery strategy is key to realising the Vision. Effective collaboration between partners and stakeholders will drive delivery and maximise benefits. The detailed “actions” within the themes were only aspirations to be explored further through the drafting of a delivery strategy.
