Minutes:
The Director of Regeneration and Place introduced a report which sought approval to establish a Wirral Regeneration Partnership to steer, support and coordinate the Council’s priority projects including the Birkenhead 2040 Framework and emerging Masterplans. It was reported to the Committee that the Birkenhead 2040 Framework detailed a comprehensive regeneration vision that would deliver 21,000 new homes and 6000 new jobs in Birkenhead over the following 20 years, and a framework of that scale required a joined-up approach to a number of regeneration-based activities.
The Committee discussed the governance of the board, noting that the Partnership would adopt the Nolan Principles of Public Life and the minutes of the meetings would be submitted to the relevant Policy and Services Committee. Following a query in relation to the consideration of environmental factors, it was confirmed that the Partnership would work within the priorities of Wirral Council.
Resolved – That
(1)
the establishment of the Wirral Regeneration Partnership and
associated hierarchy comprising membership and terms of reference
as set out in Appendix 1 be approved.
(2) the Director of Law and Governance be authorised to proceed with the necessary memorandum of understanding to establish appropriate legal and governance structures for the Wirral Regeneration Partnership.
