Its purpose is to articulate We now ask the government to create a long term strategic partnership with a collective vision and agenda for Blackpool, leveraging the full force of our Blackpool through a Town Deal, as set out in this Prospectus and the supporting resources to develop the town’s many strengths and address its complex Town Investment Plan. pattern of deprivation in a strategic and cohesive way. We want people in and outside of Blackpool to be proud of this special town. Simon Blackburn Leader, Blackpool Council We have a clear and well-developed plan for action which is contained in this Steve Fogg Chair, Lancashire Enterprise Partnership Prospectus. It has been created by the Blackpool Pride of Place, a unique partnership of local government, business, and the voluntary sector. The Christine Hodgson CBE Chair, Blackpool Pride of Place, Chair, Severn Trent partnership was created in 2018 and has made great progress to understand Blackpool’s challenges and has set out a clear plan to address the issues. The Blackpool Pride of Place partnership, supported by Business in the Community, continues to champion the delivery of this ambitious agenda, especially by leading the Towns Fund Board. The renewal of Blackpool is a prominent objective in the Lancashire Enterprise Partnership’s Strategic Economic Plan, and this document will be a contribution I spent a fascinating and moving couple of days in Blackpool to the new Local Industrial Strategy. At a national level, the UK’s Industrial where I was born as a wartime refugee. It has some of the Strategy includes the visitor, cultural and heritage sectors as being important to future economic growth. worst social problems in the UK, but it also has teams of deeply impressive, dedicated people who are working hard to solve We know that the Covid-19 crisis will have long lasting effects on the people them. of Blackpool, especially those in poverty or with special needs, who will have been the most excluded through lockdown. While some health and care sectors The Blackpool Pride of Place partnership’s plan to regenerate the may have been protected from an employment point of view, the economy, town over the next 10 years gives “real grounds for optimism". especially Tourism, will greatly suffer.

As part of this, Blackpool should receive a Town Deal worth £500m to address the problems and exploit the opportunities set out in this Prospectus. The funding would come from bids under the Towns Fund, the Future High Streets Fund and additional funding, as set out in the Town Investment Plan. The plans in this Prospectus require a shared strategic approach by all concerned and will ultimately create stronger communities and reduce pressure on the public purse. Some of our principal asks are: • £500m in Town Deal funding for Blackpool to turbo-charge • Invest in building a new university campus in the town the economy, create jobs and to tackle deprivation in centre in conjunction with Blackpool and The Fylde inner Blackpool, which would involve selective clearance, College and Lancaster University remodelling of existing properties and the creation of • Extend the deadline to 2026 for both business rates relief green spaces and enhanced capital allowance in Enterprise Zones to • Ensure a Civil Service Hub is created in the town centre ensure that growth is consolidated which would deliver a major boost to the High Street • Invest in and support the Fylde Coast Tram Loop economy • Pilot an intensive neighbourhood approach in Claremont • Support the economic potential of Blackpool’s ultra-high Ward which co-ordinates Public Service interventions and speed data cable connection to New York as part of the ensures that lessons are learned which can be rolled out North Atlantic Loop more widely • Extend the Opportunity Area programme and funding until • Work with the town to rebuild the economy, reduce 2030 unemployment and tackle mental health following the Covid-19 crisis Blackpool Town Prospectus | Page 5 PLACE INTRODUCING BLACKPOOL Photo: Blackpool Illuminations Blackpool acts as the civic centre Park, which was voted the best park in advanced materials technologies, endures through a culture of tackling for the Fylde Coast.

  • Lancashire Local Plans: Residential Targets and Delivery Update
    Lancashire Local Plans: Residential targets and delivery update This White Paper follows a presentation delivered to the Place North West Lancashire Update event in January 2019 by Melissa Kurihara. It provides a brief overview of the current status of Local Plans in Lancashire, with a particular focus on residential targets and delivery performance against these targets. Current Adopted Local Plans/Core Strategy Figure 1: Year of Plan adoption that sets housing target for the authority Figure 1 shows the year that the latest Development Plan Document (Local Plan or Core Strategy) containing the respective authority’s housing targets was adopted. Several of the authorities have adopted Site Allocations or Area Action Plans since these dates but these plans have not sought to review or update the housing targets. Four Authorities in Lancashire are still working with pre-2012 NPPF Plans, with the oldest, the Wyre Plan, having time expired in 2006. These Plans and those that were adopted shortly after the publication of the 2012 NPPF are based on housing targets derived from the former Regional Spatial Strategy. The Plans that were adopted in the last five years have carried out a mixture of joint and individual Strategic Housing Market Assessments to establish their housing needs and set targets. As would be expected, several local authorities are actively progressing new Local Plans. Unsurprisingly, Wyre is well advanced in production of a new Plan, having held hearing sessions in 2018. An Inspector’s report is anticipated shortly. Ribble Valley and Lancaster are both currently at Examination with hearings scheduled for spring 20191.

  • Newburgh Fair Rose Queen, Rosebuds
    NEWBURGH NEWS September 2018 Dear Residents First, may I record the Council’s sadness at the death of Rebecca Richardson in July. Rebecca served the Council for 20 years including periods as Chair and Vice Chair, making a lasting contribution to the quality of village life. She will be sorely missed. ******************* The Council has pursued a number of priorities on behalf of residents since our last Newsletter: Following the meeting in March on the state of our roads Lancashire County Council has provided a timetable for repairs. Work has been done to improve Cobbs Brow Lane and more is to be done on Back Lane as well as the major repair to the A5209 which is programmed for November. We continue to seek precise dates and will keep residents informed. We have conducted a housing survey to help the Parish Council respond to any proposals in the revised Local Plan due to be published by West Lancashire Borough Council in the autumn. We thank residents for the excellent response to the survey, the results of which will be summarized after the holidays and will then feed in to the consultation process expected in October. We have decided that the village is in need of a thorough clean-up. Street furniture, signage, seats, bins and other objects have become dirty and detract from the overall appearance of the village. We are working out how to do this with a combination of action by Councillors, volunteers and paid help. If you would like to volunteer please contact a Parish Councillor. We continue to monitor the village footpaths and are currently dealing with summer overgrowth on the walk to Parbold.
