Over the past nine months, a sub-group of the community council have been working on a Local Place Plan for our Community Council area, involving extensive community engagement.
The primary purpose of the Plan is to provide an up-to-date statement of current issues we face and our aspirations for the next 5-10 years, to help public bodies, landowners, businesses and funders consider how they can best support positive change in the area. Our consultation identified the substantial assets the community has, in relation to the capacity of its people, the history and the built environment and the impact of strategic partners. The projects we have set out in the local place plan build on these asses to address the challenges we have in relation to accessible housing, limited access to quality spaces and the challenging conditions that some people experience.
Our big vision is “St Andrews will use the significant opportunities and assets it has to be a welcoming, thriving, connected and well-integrated town offering a great quality of life and good prospects for everyone who lives, studies, works and visits here.”
You can access our draft Plan at www.standrewscommunitycouncil.co.uk/localplaceplan. Or click on the document below.
Please do share this around your local networks in the local area, and encourage people to take a look and let us know what you think using this simple form before 25 April 2024 - https://forms.office.com/r/4CRyiqDXqD
