Is Key decision?: No

Is subject to call in?: No

Decision:

Approval for the submission of a funding application to the YNYCA’s Local Authority High Streets Fund for £250,000 to support delivery of the Skipton Canal Waterfront – Phase 2 project

Reasons for the decision:

To enable North Yorkshire Council to seek external capital funding to support a priority regeneration project identified through the Town Investment Plan programme.

Alternative options considered:

The option of not applying for external funding was discounted, as it would limit the Council’s ability to deliver the improvements and result in missed opportunities to enhance the economic, social and cultural potential of Skipton Canal Waterfront – Phase 2.
