I'm absolutely delighted that the cabinet Buckinghamshire Council has approved plans for the regeneration of two key parts of the town centre - the Old County Offices and the Gala bingo hall.
This is exactly what I’ve been campaigning for since I became Aylesbury’s MP four years ago, and will help achieve my ambition to make Aylesbury an even better place to live, work, visit and invest.
I’ve brought several Government ministers to Aylesbury so they can see for themselves the potential for our town and I’m really pleased that this has now turned into money from the Brownfield Land Release Fund, enabling this work to go ahead.
The development of County Offices is especially significant to me personally, as that is where my parents first met one another when they both worked for Buckinghamshire County Council almost 60 years ago. And the plans for the Gala Bingo Hall site will open up new parts of the town centre to exciting opportunities from a wide range of businesses.
This is another great example of the Conservative Council working hand-in-hand with the town’s Conservative MP to bring great benefits to Aylesbury. Pictured with Cllr Rachael Matthews, Deputy Cabinet Member for Town Centre Regeneration at Buckinghamshire Council.
