Further funding for Deeside regeneration
Published: 10/02/2016
Welsh Government has awarded 天涯社区 a further 拢1,367,000 for
a regeneration programme in Deeside.
The money, from the Vibrant and Viable Places programme, will be used for
further environmental improvements, improvements to the cycling network and
energy efficiency measures to council-owned homes.
The Vibrant and Viable Places programme, now reaching the end of its second
year, is the Welsh Government flagship programme for regeneration and the
Council received just over 拢6m for an ambitious programme of regeneration in
Deeside over three years. The programme will enhance the core of Deeside and
complement the major economic growth underway through the Enterprise Zone where
7,000 new jobs are forecast to be created.
Cllr. Derek Butler, Portfolio Holder for Economic Development, said This is a
welcome announcement and only possible because of the good progress the Council
is making in delivering the Vibrant and Viable Places programme in Deeside.
Deeside is a major economic hub for North Wales and North West England and this
programme is an important element in growing the prosperity of the region.
