Notice Description
The aim of place shaping within Community Planning is; * To improve the economic, social and environmental well-being of the selected 'place', through harnessing place shaping powers and functions within Council and from partners. * To ensure that the aspirations of the community plan are realised at a local level and bring other borough wide plans to life locally to include spatial elements and following key messages from the Council's preferred options paper. * To build plans for a place in which local communities are integral to its development and delivery.
