The Assistant Director of Legal Services to prepare the draft Order and notices. 3. The proposals to be advertised. 4. The Order to be made subject to be there being no objections received. 5. If any objections are received, a further report will be prepared in relation to these objections and this report will be considered by the Strategic Director of Regeneration and Environment. |

|
Swinton town centre previously consisted of several public service provisions as well as independent and national retailers.

A report was presented to Cabinet in December 2018 where Cabinet approved the aims and objectives for the redevelopment of Swinton Town Centre and that an OJEU compliant procurement process be undertaken to appoint a developer partner. In January 2020 a further report was presented to Cabinet concluding the procurement process and endorsing the appointment of the chosen developer partner and the proposed scheme.
