  • Adult Social Care Portfolio
    Date 21 Sept 2020 Version 1.1 (Cabinet) Approved by DM ECONOMY AND REGENERATION PORTFOLIO HOLDER’S INTRODUCTION This agreement is one that is shaped by the ‘new normal’ we’re now in, with COVID impacting on Stockport residents’ daily lives. As we go through the period this agreement covers, it could be we have finally found a viable vaccine and we have control over this devastating virus. However, the impact of COVID is going to be with us for many years indeed. This agreement seeks to reflect the present situation we are in, while looking forward to the future and Building Back Better. I am still determined that we push on with major infrastructure. There is an increased thirst for walking and cycling and we will continue to press ahead on this. We already have a track record that, in my opinion, we should be very proud of: so far, as a council, we have gained funding that is nearly the equivalent of £100 per Stockport resident. Yet for ‘big ticket’ infrastructure projects, the Mayoral Development Corporation (MDC) will play a key role in helping deliver them. From improving Stockport railway station to progressing Metrolink, the MDC is central to delivering both. We are already seeing the strength of the MDC; Weir Mill will soon realise its potential and later this year, work on Stockport Interchange will get underway. The St Thomas’ Hospital site has created a real buzz, bringing together regeneration and the council’s wider priorities of more affordable housing and providing better social care. The success we have had with ‘shovel ready’ funding for Stok (flexible office space to be located within the old M&S building) and Stockport Exchange Phase 4 will ensure our town centre continues to move towards a more sustainable and relevant future.
