  • EXECUTIVE MEMBER REPORT to COUNCIL Wednesday 6Th September 2017
    EXECUTIVE MEMBER REPORT TO COUNCIL Wednesday 6th September 2017 1. Area Care The standard of our grass cutting is important to how our town looks. Five new Ransome Parkway Meteor Triples cylinder grass cutters have been purchased to replace the old Kubota rotary ride of grass cutters. The new machines are able to cut larger areas and also produce a more refined cut than the rotary cutters. This will help raise standards across the town. The painting of the bollards and street furniture on the main routes into the town has progressed with the completion of Wilson Street, Exchange Square, and Queens Square. The flower troughs located in Exchange Square have been planted with dwarf conifers and alpine plants. Prior to the start of the new football season, a deep cleanse has been carried out along the route to the Riverside Stadium which involved mechanical sweeping of the area, litter picking, removal of debris from underneath and around barriers and weed spraying. 2. Recycling & Waste Services The Green Recycling Collections service has proved popular once again with tonnages in the first three months showing comparable tonnages to last year which was the highest we have seen since the service started. The collections have been extended this year with the last collections being on w/c 27th November 2017. 3. Albert Park The lake has now re-opened to public fishing after the recent visit from Centre for Environment Fisheries and Aquaculture Science (CEFAS) following the outbreak of Koi Herpesvirus (KHV) in 2016. CEFAS are happy for the lake to remain open to the public and a further unannounced visit will take place later in the year.

Tees Valley is a functional economic area that is distinct in terms of business composition, industry focus, growth sectors, assets and infrastructure from that of its wider geography. The Tees Valley Economic Assessment provides a strong and robust evidence base of the current state, and future potential, of the Tees Valley economy. The principal aim of the Assessment is to summarise how our economy operates, its linkages, assets, growth and productivity areas and opportunities, as well as to highlight the barriers and issues that prevent our businesses from growing and our residents from flourishing. The Assessment, which will be updated annually, will inform the future strategies and action plans of TVU and key partners, including the Tees Valley Strategic Economic Plan, European Structural and Investment Funds Strategy, Strategic Infrastructure Plan and Innovation Strategy.
