Boston Town Centre Strategy and Action Plan 2023-2027 Annual Review 2024 (Year One)
Decision Maker: Cabinet
Decision status: Recommendations Approved
Is Key decision?: Yes
Is subject to call in?: Yes
Purpose:
To present to Cabinet the Year One Annual Review of the Boston Town Centre Strategy and Action Plan 2023-2027 for Discussion.
Decision:
RESOLVED:
1. That the report and its associated appendix (Appendix 1), against the commitments made in the Boston Town Centre Strategy and Action Plan 2023-2027 entitled “A Town Centre for Everyone” be noted;
2. That the continuation of the work, as set out in Appendix 1, be confirmed; and
3. That the new actions, as provided at Section 6.4 points a-d within the report, be incorporated into the Boston Town Centre Strategy and Action Plan 2023-2027.
Reasons for the decision:
· The Boston Town Centre Strategy and Action Plan provides a strategic and operational focus on the town centre. This initiative seeks to revitalise the town centre by supporting our communities’ pride in the area through targeted work and regeneration activity, working hand-in-hand with businesses, residents and partners.
· The Boston Town Centre Strategy and Action Plan is a live document which was agreed at the Council’s Cabinet on 25th October 2023. Now that it is in place it is important to review and report on progress against the commitments that were made, and to add any actions to the Strategy’s Action Plan should Members feel it is appropriate to do so.
Alternative options considered:
To not review progress against the Boston Town Centre Strategy and Action Plan 2023-2027. This has been discounted to ensure through a review the commitments made by the Council’s Cabinet are delivered against, whilst enabling consideration of any additional actions and challenges with mitigating action/s as appropriate.
