Legally compliant? No

Sound? No

Duty to co-operate? Not specified

Representation Summary:

Para's (i)to (vi) are not written in crystal clear English. Para (i) is a hotchpotch of ideas which somehow makes out that after n years the RDC has only just thought of having a co-ordinated town centre initiative, whatever that is supposed to mean, when it should have been an ongoing activity for a standing committee. Para (ii) makes what I would call good commonsense and can be seen as an ongoing activity of improvement. Why should this be considered a proposal? You might say that many of these proposals are the daily responsibilities of a properly run council.
