Update on Prince’s Park Masterplan 1. The emerging thoughts illustrated on the attached drawings were made available for the community to view at an exhibition at Irlam Leisure Centre on 17 th October 2016. 2. Subsequent to this, the stakeholder group met on the 19 th October 2016 to review the outcome of the exhibition and agree what wider consultation should be carried out. 3. Initial feedback from the exhibition indicated a generally favourable response to improving facilities within the park (although there were mixed views regarding suggested locations or whether certain facilities should be relocated). However, the key concerns related to: - Whether the park was an appropriate location for a new health centre/community hub Potentially combining the existing two libraries in to a centrally located community hub building. Sensitivities around re-locating the war memorial. 4. The consultation process proposed by the stakeholder group was as follows: - To place an article in the Irlam & Cadishead times to promote the consultation. To load display boards showing the emerging thoughts, a list of ‘frequently asked questions’ and questionnaire on to the City Councils Community Team website page and the Hamilton Davies Trust website. To develop and host a Survey Monkey on the City Councils Community Team website page. To issue a letter with supporting display boards to all schools in the district to seek the views of young people. To locate a touring exhibition of emerging thoughts & questionnaire in the two libraries in the district and the Hamilton Davies Trust offices over a one month period. 5. Subsequent to the stakeholder group meeting on the 19 th October, senior council managers requested that appropriate Lead and Executive Support Members be briefed to advise of the consultation process proposed by the stakeholder group (particularly taking in to account the key concerns already raised in paragraph 3 above). This took place on the 14 th November, where the process was agreed. Mydocs/meetings/i&c/cc/papers2017/190117/jc 8
6. Prior to embarking on further consultation officers of the council, felt it appropriate to report back to the Irlam and Cadishead Regeneration Group and agree a way forward. 7. The key points to be considered and agreed by the Regeneration Group are: a) Whether further consultation should be carried out at the present time, bearing in mind the key concerns raised in paragraph 3 above. b) If agreed that the consultation should go ahead: - i. What should be included in the consultation material e.g. remove the hub building altogether or show two options, one with and one without a community hub building. ii. An appropriate timetable for consultation. Mydocs/meetings/i&c/cc/papers2017/190117/jc 9
