13Motions referred to the Executive under Standing Order 29

Bo'ness Town Centre

Council recognises the challenges faced by Bo'ness town centre due to the difficult UK-wide economic conditions, and the pressures faced by retail operators. Officers are asked to consider what interventions could be implemented to support Bo'ness Town Centre moving forward - to include a potential master-planning exercise similar to Falkirk and Grangemouth.

Council agrees that a report should come back to Executive as soon as possible to enable Elected Members to agree an approach that protects the centre, and offers opportunities for growth and that the report should explore options for the future use of a refreshed Regeneration Fund to support a master plan for Bo'ness town centre, noting the success of the current fund in relation to Slammanan, Bonnybridge, Bainsford and Langlees and Dunipace.
