Minutes:
The Chair invited Daniel Shamplin-Hall, Adviser, to introduce the item.
Daniel update Members that as part of its 2017/18 work programme the Board expressed an interest in exploring the role of councils in managing town and city centres and facilitating improved community cohesion. Daniel stated that this paper outlines the activities officers have identified as being undertaken by the LGA and
partner organisations within the city centre management and community cohesion space, and details the opportunities provided to City Regions Board Members to feed its particular urban viewpoint into their development. In light of this, Daniel stated the report asks Members whether they wish to undertake new work in this area over the next political cycle.
The Chair thanked Daniel for his update, and asked Members for agreement for this work to be deferred to both the Safer and Stronger Communities Board, and the Environment, Economy, Housing and Transport Board.
Members agreed for this work to be deferred, and there then followed a confidential discussion between members of the City Regions Board and LGA officers.
