Agenda item

To consider communicating the draft plan (enclosed) with local residents in order to get feedback and shape the final draft before adopting by full Council.

The Committee received and considered the draft strategic plan produced by Cllrs Gwatkin and Ashbourne.  The Town Clerk commented she had some concerns about the wording in its current form, particularly as it encompassed things that were outside the remit of the Town Council.  It was agreed that she would work on rewording some sections with Cllrs Ashbourne and Gwatkin.  Once this has been done the Communications and Events Officer would translate it into an online survey and issue a press release.

RESOLVED:

1.                   that the Draft Strategic Plan 2019 -2023 be noted;

2.            that Cllrs Ashbourne and Gwatkin work with the Town Clerk to reword some sections of the plan;

3.            that the Communications and Events Officer translates the strategic plan into a Survey Monkey survey and issues a press release to launch this.
