Retford Town Centre Plan
The Retford Town Centre Neighbourhood
Planning Group (RTCNPG) recently commenced its wider public consultation
phase with a stall at Retford Market on Saturday 18th September 2021. As part of a planned programme of public
appearances and communications, RTCNPG will be appearing on some of the Retford
markets on Thursday, Friday, and
Saturday, and Retford Christmas Market, over the next two months. The development of the plan is being managed by the Retford Business Forum.
The Vision for Retford Town Centre is:
By 2037 Retford will be a safe,
healthy, accessible and sustainable town centre, supporting people of all ages,
which is proud of its heritage buildings and attractive to businesses as a
place to grow and prosper, providing a range of employment sites and premises.
Retford town centre is future facing,
the home of people and businesses looking to reduce their carbon footprint. The
value of natural assets will be enhanced and extended and investment will create
a rich mix of shopping, leisure, sports, health, cultural and social facilities
making Retford town centre appealing as a place to live, learn, develop, work
and spend quality leisure time.
The process for constructing a Retford
Town Centre Neighbourhood Plan will take place over the next 18 months
completing with a referendum. Once adopted, developments within the Neighbourhood
Plan Area will need to conform to the plan requirements and supporting activities
will be progressed in parallel with the appropriate organisations.
A website, social media and other
communication facilities will be developed over the next three months, as
funding becomes available, to enable as many people as possible, with an
interest in Retford Town Centre, to be able to take part.
My suggestion is for any local Retford
Town Centre businesses to become a member of the Retford Business Forum and
have your say about the way forward.
