This built on the Authority’s wider regeneration objectives that were agreed at its meeting on the 26th November 2018 where it agreed a regeneration strategy for the borough; An Ambition for North Tyneside which identified North Shields Town Centre and Fish Quay as a specific priority. The policy objectives for North Shields were agreed by Cabinet in April 2019 and these included: A smaller but more vibrant and connected, high quality town centre; create a smaller, more vibrant and connected town centre which combines living, working and retail with a place that becomes a destination in its own right; A connected and vibrant Fish Quay; which supports a developing food and drink offer and a working quay but builds on the Fish Quay’s increasing popularity as a destination exploring heritage, cycling, the connections to South Shields as well as the popular night time and weekend economy; Better transport flows and connectivity; making sure traffic flows more effectively, that the Metro Station is connected to the rest of the town, that pedestrians and cyclists can move easily between the town centre and the Fish Quay with an opportunity for something eye-catching to make that possible; and A better quality built environment; learning from recent projects, and setting high design and material standards for our work.

    Foreword I have great pleasure in submitting an application for the Neighbourhood Planning Vanguards scheme on behalf of the Fish Quay Heritage Partnership. The community of the Fish Quay has a strong and successful history of taking a pro- active approach within partnerships to regeneration their area. The community’s passion and commitment to their area has brought about great improvements to the Fish Quay and I am confident that they will continue to thrive and bring about further positive change if given the opportunity to participate in their Neighbourhood Planning Vanguards scheme. Indeed at the recent Partnership meeting I was impressed by the solid commitment given by the group to this emerging model of planning neighbourhoods. I look forward to the prospect of being part of this exciting new planning regime.
