A proposal to build flood defences from the Wicker Arches to Meadowhall is being planned. It will also increase the height of the flood defences on Nursery Street.

Businesses in the Wicker area are being asked to vote on the scheme. The proposals will result in a small increase in business rates in the area, depending on the size and location of the business. The plan will only go ahead if businesses vote for it.

The outcome of the vote will be announced on 16th December.
