Issue - meetings

To provide Cabinet with an update regarding ongoing work related to FDC’s properties at 24 High Street and 11-12 High Street, Wisbech.

Members considered the Wisbech High Street Update presented by Councillor Seaton.

Councillor Hoy thanked everyone that made it possible in getting to this stage; she did not think the work would ever be started but she was wrong. Councillor Tierney agreed, it has been a long time coming with a lot of hurdles along the way, but it is good to see the work finally starting. He was further pleased to see the High Street did not need to be closed which was important to local people and businesses and everybody is looking forward to seeing the results.

Proposed by Councillor Seaton, seconded by Councillor Tierney and AGREED to note the current position in relation to the two key Wisbech High Street sites and ongoing work to extend the NLHF High Street project to November 2024 and beyond.
