Town centre regeneration plans submitted

By Hugh Fort

The regeneration of Bracknell took another step forward this week after plans were submitted which, if approved, mean more detailed designs can be produced later this year.

Bracknell Regeneration Partnership has submitted the section 73 application to Bracknell Forest Council, which if they are approved, will mean it can submit further plans in the autumn.

Those plans are already being worked on by the town centre landlord’s consultancy team.

Yes badger you are not wrong there and how much taxpayers money has been spent on this project during this time? Millions no doubt.

...and just how many steps forward does this Council take before they do anything? A bit like Escher's never ending steps, they keep taking them and never go anywhere. There are signs however that something is happening as they keep closing shops and then knocking them down. Is the real plan to flatten all of Bracknell? That would certainly stop residents complaining all the time.

Instead of shuffling and submitting paperwork how about some actual building work?!!

I think GetBracknell as any other local newspaper should stop publicizing these non-news about the so called "regeneration". It's now became obvious that nothing will happen in the short/medium term. Actually, I seriously think I need to tell my 8 months daughter to stay fit as soon as she can understand me: I believe she will be able to witness the regeneration... but only if able to get to 60!

They'll have to regenerate Helen Barnett soon.

I moved to Bracknell 5 years ago. I recall detailed plans being in place then for the regeneration.

So if these plans are approved that means more plans can be submitted for approval. Does Helen Barnett just keep submitting paperwork? Dragging the process out as long as possible to keep herself employed?

By the way, can anyone point me in the right direction to find out who funds BRP? And who is funding the regeneration? Why aren't BFC at the sharp end with this?
