  Bromsgrove Town Centre Regeneration    
Area Action Plan Survey
  Your District Council is working hard to build a better Bromsgrove.  Previous surveys and meetings have given us a view from much of the Community as to what the issues are in the town centre.  We have been working alongside the County Council and our other Partners on what could be done to tackle them.  We would now like your views on these ideas.

The reason for asking your views is that it will help us decide what is more important to you and what is most urgent for you.  This is important because we may not be able to do everything at once.

Your views will be considered alongside other factors (such as environmental & financial) and will help us decide upon a plan of action to get things done. This is called the Town Centre Area Action Plan
  Once your District Councillors and where appropriate County Councillors have made their final decisions on what their preferred options are they will be published.  This means later this year you will be able see what plans are being proposed based on your views and those of others.
