Local Lib Dems Work for More Resident Power
Your Liberal Democrat Focus Team are delighted that the Council has agreed to look at our plans for more resident involvement in the management of local arts, sports and cultural venues.
Because of the work of your Lib Dems, the Council will now look at introducing ‘Local Management Boards’, groups of High Street ward residents who would be given areas of responsibility in managing their local facilities.
Cllrs James O’Rourke and Johar Khan said that the Council “have a responsibility to let their residents take part in the process of shaping local services.”
Cllrs O’Rourke and Khan continued: “The future of our local cultural services, such as museums and libraries, is obviously one of great concern to many residents. We promised High Street ward residents we would work to get them more resident involvement, and we are delivering on that promise”.
