    A Vision for Scarborough

    A Vision for Scarborough This broadsheet contains the conclusions of the Vision building process carried out by John Thompson & Partners and West 8 between January and May 2002, working as part of Yorkshire Forward’s Urban Renaissance Panel and with the support of Scarborough Borough Council. The next stage of the process will be to analyse all of the ideas that have been generated and to create an Action Plan for their delivery. The Vision described in this leaflet is not a rigid plan or blue print which Yorkshire Forward or Scarborough Borough Council will implement tomorrow. It represents a way forward, a new direction for the town and its people. These are examples of the kind of things that can and must be achieved. The Vision will take a long time to deliver and will depend upon everyone in the community, individuals, business people, the Council and Yorkshire Forward showing commitment and leadership over the next 10 -20 years. A Vision for Scarborough “We’ve got to start looking up to quality and not down to price.” Introduction Cultural Town Scarborough already contains a wealth In the autumn of 2001, Yorkshire Forward (the of cultural assets, but many are hidden Regional Development Agency) launched its away and under-valued.
