The objectives are incomplete and as such there is a danger that the strategy that will be developed becomes flawed. The objectives provide no commentary on the important role of the employment uses of the Eldon Way Industrial Estate to the town centre and wider area. The vision statement includes a comment about the town centre being a place to 'live and work' yet the objectives do not. This needs to be reconsidered for reasons of soundness.
We agree that there needs to be improved retail facilities and a new focal point in the town centre.
