Town Centre Regeneration Programme Board
Description
Successful masterplanning is the key to creating great places. A clear, considered masterplan, which has been developed by professionals and local people together can help produce high quality development and the revival of places. Masterplans provide key evidence on how development can be practically delivered and illustrate what it could look like, to support policies contained within local planning documents. In Torbay, a New Local Plan is being prepared, in parallel with three community-led Neighbourhood Plans. It is intended that together these documents will form the overall development plan (local planning policy context) for Torbay.
At the 1st June 2015 Adjourned Annual Council meeting, the masterplans for Torquay Town Centre and Paignton Town Centre were adopted as Supplementary Planning Documents, giving them full weight in the development planning framework for Torbay.
It was also agreed at that meeting that a Masterplan Programme Board would be established to market, promote and deliver masterplan projects from within existing resources and that the Masterplan Programme Board would comprise of the following persons or their nominated representatives:
(a) Mayor;
(b) 2 Conservative Members;
(c) 1 Liberal Democrat Member;
(d) 1 Independent Member;
(e) Torbay Economic Development Company Limited (non-Councillor);
(f) Business Forum Representative;
(g) Torbay Development Agency Director of Economic Strategy;
(h) Head of Spatial Planning; and
(i) Chief Executive of Torbay Council

This has now transferred as a working party following decision of Council on 7 December 2017.
