Market
& Coastal Towns Initiative |
- Mr Alec Brice along with Mr Tom Jane gave a presentation on
the work of the Market & Coastal Town Initiative. Alec is
responsible for the St Ives area which includes it's neighbouring
Parishes of Zennor and Towednack. An update was given to progress
so far and the meeting was informed that there is funding of £44,000
for a work programme over the next 18 months to include a series
of community events where the public can put forward their ideas.
To allay some peoples fears that 'nothing ever happens' from such
groups some funds have already been allocated for instant fix
type schemes. Focus groups are to be formed and the Parish Council
will be informed of all relevant dates and meetings.
