Masterplan Brings Issues to Light

A Douglas Councillor says speaking with young people about a new play provision for Pulrose ‘highlighted’ issues she wasn’t aware of.

Chair of the Regeneration and Community Committee Natalie Byron-Teare says the new ‘masterplan’ has been produced following consultation with the area’s youth groups.

As part of the project, the local authority is looking at the area ‘holistically’ and wants to tie it into a future housing plan for Pulrose and Spring Valley.

Issues

Councillor Byron-Teare says she would also like to engage the local businesses in the area to help make better use of the space.

She added that the council needs to be doing more ‘direct’ and ‘mass’ consultation with the communities and believes for projects like this it’s the ‘way forward’.

Local Democracy Reporter Emma Draper has been speaking to her:

More details about the masterplan will be announced in due course.
