Shawlands Town Centre Plan
Last year Glasgow City Council carried out a public consultation asking people who use Shawlands Town Centre for their thoughts on how the area could be improved. Out of the huge number of peopel who live and work in the area only 1240 responses were recieved and these are published in a report below. The Council have now generated a plan for the future of the area and they are after your thoughts. Lets try and get more than 1240 people giving comment on the proposals good or bad. Its a good chance to try and set the right focus for the future development of the area.
Here is some information that the Development and Regeneration Services have sent us.

Following on from the consultation a Draft Shawlands Town Centre Action Plan was developed.
The Plan is intended to:- Ensure Shawlands becomes a more desirable place to live and invest.
- Addresses economic, place-making and urban management issues
- Proposes specific ways in which the Town Centre can be repositioned to become a successful, thriving city destination.
- Recommend a number of improvements to place management, public spaces, streets, buildings and the role played by business and customers in helping it to become more successful.

In context, the Shawlands Town Centre survey actually had a very significant number of responses. The Council city wide survey on parks only received about 900 responses. The consultation on Go Ape at Pollok Park only received something like 12 responses.
