A new Dawn for Tenbury Town Council

Last night Tenbury Town Council endorsed the Town Clerk's proposals to greatly improve the recording and presentation of budgets and accounts.

For the first time it will now be possible for Councillors (and others) to fully understand where the Council spends it's (our) money and where it gets income.

This is something that I and others have been lobbying for, for many years.

The new Town Clerk who is really stamping her mark on the Council and is implementing so many improvements, should be congratulated on her major achievements so far.

The Councillors also agreed that a feasibility study and business plan be produced (by an independant theatre expert) with a view to transferring the day to day management of the Regal to a not for profit trust (whilst retaining ownership by the Town Council).

This is excellent news and if the plan shows it can be implemented it will make so much difference to the use and vitality of not just the Regal but the whole towns visitor economy.  It will also have a wide ranging effect on not only the Regal's finances but also that of the Town Council's.
