Representation Summary:

The Councils also need to assess the space needs of the existing community-related uses, most particularly the Women's Resources Centre and the present and future occupants of the former Library.

There is also a need for an assessment of the major gaps in current community provision in the area, and the outcome of this assessment to be reflected in the community provision on the site.

Appendix 1:
The following community aspirations were stated at a public meeting:

*Green space

*Creative community Space - multi functional and flexible.

*A Space for community and teaching kitchens

*Space to enable a maintenance hub for cyclists, along with a teaching and learning facility

*Affordable workshop, gallery and storage Space for local artists
