Denbighshire County Council has extended the deadline for people wishing to have a say on the Rhyl Delivery Plan.
Work has already been carried out in Rhyl to improve its image and the quality of life for residents and visitors through various programmes, including the North Wales Coast Strategic Regeneration Area, the Rhyl Going Forward programme and the Rhyl City Strategy.
Now a detailed plan has been drawn up to pull all of this activity together and to provide a framework for Rhyl which will guide all future regeneration activity and decisions about investment for the next three to five years.
The document highlights four key areas for action:
West Rhyl Regeneration Area – where the plan is to demolish some of the buildings and replace them with high quality, contemporary new developments, whilst preserving some of the historic assets by creatively adapting them to accommodate new uses;
Tourism & the Coastal Strip – where we will be building on Rhyl’s reputation as a family resort by providing appropriate facilities to sustain and grow this market;
Retail & the Town Centre – where the strategy is to re-establish Rhyl as a prime retail location providing “high street” stores, good quality independent shops , and a vibrant market; and
Housing & Neighbourhoods – which looks at how we can improve the quality of homes in Rhyl, along with the open spaces and facilities which surround them.
The projects will involve a wide range of partners, including the Welsh Government, Rhyl Town Council, West Rhyl First, Pennaf Housing, BRAND, Coleg Llandrillo Cymru, Rhyl Business Group, and the Denbighshire Voluntary Services Council.
The document can be viewed on www.denbighshire.gov.uk or at Rhyl Library. There is also an accompanying online questionnaire at: www.surveymonkey.com/s/LWCLQ3F or www.surveymonkey.com/s/VNJCZCY (Welsh) The deadline for comments is October 31.
