New Era For North Liverpool
The green light is set to be given to an ambitious, 20-year plan to revitalise North Liverpool and South Sefton.
The city council's Cabinet will be asked to officially endorse the North Liverpool and South Sefton Strategic Regeneration Framework (SRF) today.
The plans, which will see Liverpool and Sefton joining forces, aim to breathe new life into North Liverpool and South Sefton, increase job opportunities, attract investment and improve life for residents. They also look at how current regeneration schemes, such as Liverpool Waters, the development of the port, Everton Park and Everton and Liverpool Football Clubs can help maximise economic growth for the area.
Put together by a steering group led by Liverpool Vision – and comprising Liverpool and Sefton Councils, the NWDA, Government Office and Homes and Communities Agency - the strategy covers the four wards of Anfield, County, Everton and Kirkdale, and the two wards of Derby and Linacre in South Sefton. They will form the blueprint for regeneration in these areas over the next 20 years.
Councillor Malcolm Kennedy, the city council's Cabinet Member for Regeneration, said: "This hugely important strategy will be the driving force for the regeneration of North Liverpool over the next two decades. It will be an invaluable tool for showcasing our shared vision for the area to potential developers, investors and the Government.
"The regeneration of North Liverpool is a major priority for us. It faces many challenges, but also many opportunities, with a number of schemes already underway which have the potential to transform the area. By bringing a range of partners together, this strategy will significantly strengthen our ability to drive forward major projects and attract vital resources."
The city council's Director for Regeneration and Employment, Nick Kavanagh said: "North Liverpool remains the most deprived part of the city – yet it contains some of our most valuable assets. It’s vital that we work together to maximise these assets, attract investment and improve the lives of local people.
"The SRF will help us achieve this. It lays out our long term commitment to the area, and will be the basis upon which the city council and its partners work together to bring forward the much-needed regeneration of the area."
