Decision details

This report sets out a recommendation for the redevelopment of Brierfield Mill (a redundant factory complex) to support economic growth and regeneration in one of Lancashire's deprived communities.

This is deemed to be a Key Decision and the provisions of Standing Order No. 25 have been complied with.

(Not for Publication - Exempt information as defined in Paragraph 3 of Part 1 of Schedule 12A to the Local Government Act 1972. It is considered that in all the circumstances of the case the public interest in maintaining the exemption outweighs the public interest in disclosing the information)

The Committee considered a report on a proposed funding contribution by the County Council towards the redevelopment of Brierfield Mill.  The contribution would help to transform the redundant factory complex into a leisure, residential and education destination that would be known as 'Northlight'.

Resolved:  That the recommendations set out in the report to the Leader be noted and that no additional comments or suggested alternative recommendations be made.
