Issue - meetings

(i)        That the prospectus attached at Appendix 1 of the agenda report be approved.

(ii)       That a briefing be arranged for all members of the council on the work of Aspire Housing and its associated companies, PM training and Realise Foundation.

Consideration was given to a report seeking approval of a prospectus setting out agreed areas for collaboration between the Council and Aspire Housing.

The Leader introduced the report stating that the Council had a very close working relationship with Aspire.

The Council and Aspire are keen to work closely on streetscene issues.

The new Administration wanted to build an even closer relationship, working with the LAP’s and also, PM Training who had produced artwork on the roundabouts round the town centre.

Aspire would be taking a seat on the LEP.  They are a voice both locally and nationally.

A copy of the Prospectus was attached at page 49 of the agenda.

Members welcomed the report.

Resolved:     (i)         That the prospectus attached at Appendix 1 of the agenda

report be approved.

(ii)          That a briefing be arranged for all members of the council on the work of Aspire Housing and its associated companies, PM training and Realise Foundation.
