Burngreave green environment project (phase 2)
What was discussed
Three proposals to continue the work undertaken on parks and green spaces.
What we decided
Not to approve the project in the sum of £1.3m but to commission individual pieces of work on the parks in the area. Also to work with the local provider Green City Action to improve neighbourhood green spaces in collaboration with local residents.
Supporting business Project (phase2)
What was discussed
Continuing to support and develop the Burngreave Business Forum and extend the project to provide grants and training for local people to start a new enterprise.
What we decided
To approve the project in the sum of £375,315 subject to an independent evaluation being completed by December 2005.
Sorby House
What was discussed
The proposal for Sorby House to be developed as a Resource Centre providing Community/Commercial facilities in light of recent discussions about the location of a supermarket in the area through the Burngreave and Firvale Masterplanning process.
What we decided
The Partnership Board remain committed to the current proposal for Sorby House which arose out of consultation with the local community and it is crucial that this flagship development goes ahead within the timescales identified.
