More chances to have your say on the Council Plan 2018-2022
Lancaster City Council is giving the opportunity for more people to have your say on its developing Council Plan for 2018-2022 with a further two drop-in sessions in Morecambe and Carnforth.
Ambitions
The plan, called ‘Ambitions’ sets out the council's priorities and vision for the Lancaster district to grow and thrive as a vibrant regional centre in the north west of England.
In shaping the way the council improves the way it delivers its services in the future and that its ambitions reflect the needs of the district, the council is inviting members of the public to come along to drop-in sessions taking place in Morecambe and Carnforth to discuss its plan for 2018-2022.
Committed to making the most of our district’s many attributes as a great place to live, work and visit, the council has set out its four ambitions in the plan for 2018-22:
• A thriving and prosperous economy
• Clean and safe neighbourhoods
• Healthy and happy communities
• A smart and forward-thinking council
The first such event took place in April this year at The Storey on Meeting House Lane, Lancaster when residents and businesses took the opportunity to have a look at the council’s developing plan and share their views with Cabinet members and senior officers.
The next two sessions which will also be attended by members and officers are taking place as follows:
Wednesday June 13 - Arndale Centre, Morecambe from 2pm-6pm
Wednesday June 20 - Carnforth Station Heritage Centre from 2pm-7pm
Everyone is welcome to drop in at any time during the course of the event.
Coun Eileen Blamire, Leader of Lancaster City Council, said: “We are committed to ensuring the council plays the best part it possibly can to put our district well and truly on the map as being one of the greatest places to live, work and visit in the region. However, it is vitally important that people have their say on how the council can plan to achieve this.
“The first event in Lancaster was a great success and I would therefore urge others to come along to the informal drop-in sessions in Morecambe and Carnforth next week to find out more and share your views.”
