Leader's Announcements

Minutes:

The Leader informed the Council that Camberley Town Centre had been shortlisted for a REVO Gold regenerate award. Whilst Camberley had not won, it had been runner up to Hull; this was felt to be a notable achievement when considering the relatively early stages of the town’s regeneration and the competition with larger, more high profile cities and towns. She thanked and congratulated all those involved.

 

The Council was updated on the SHAPE project, including the OPE bid for the Council’s Land East of Knoll Road (LEKR) site.

 

A meeting had been held with Surrey County Council concerning its Assets and People work. The County Council would be taking forward a project on gypsy & traveller permanent sites. Members were advised that sites within the borough would be refurbished as part of this work.

 

The Leader reported that events held in Camberley Town Centre in the run up to Christmas had been successful and thanked everyone involved in the preparation for the events and the decoration of the town.
