WOODNOOK INVESTMENT PLAN

Deputy Leader of Hyndburn Borough Council, Cllr Clare Pritchard, submitted the a report to Cabinet on 1st August 2012 to further stimulate regeneration in the Woodnook area of Accrington which was unanimously approved:

'This report seeks approval to develop an investment plan for Woodnook in partnership with PlaceFirst and Twin Valley Homes. The investment plan will identify the investment needed to achieve the regeneration of Woodnook.  The plan will take into account the funding that we have secured to date, but also identify other funding opportunities that will form the basis of a comprehensive regeneration programme. As part of this plan, PlaceFirst propose to set up a local office and appoint a Neighbourhood Manager.  The report seeks approval for the Council to contribute a one off payment of £35,000 towards the set up costs estimated at just over £110,000. I move the report.'
