Updated designs have been released for the exciting Clacton Civic Quarter project as part of a second public consultation.
This ambitious development aims to transform key sites the heart of Clacton town centre, and Tendring District Council (TDC) is eager to hear your thoughts on the latest plans for the Carnarvon Terrace part of the scheme.
The new designs – developed following valuable feedback from the initial consultation to ensure the project meets the needs and aspirations of the community – include up to 28 modern homes, a vibrant mixed-use civic and community space, creative workspaces, and a replacement High Street car park, with no loss of parking spaces.
Councillor Ivan Henderson, TDC Deputy Leader and Cabinet Member for Economic Growth, Regeneration and Tourism said: “We are excited to share these refined designs with the public.
“This project is a cornerstone of our vision for Clacton, providing new homes, business opportunities, and community spaces which will improve quality of life.
“Your feedback is crucial in shaping a development that truly benefits our residents.”
The Clacton Civic Quarter project is part of a broader £30million initiative, funded by a nearly £20million government grant. This includes an Essex County Council multi-storey skills, learning and cultural centre at the current Clacton Library site, featuring a new library, Adult Community Learning Centre, local registration services, and a range of other local partners.
The online consultation runs until Wednesday, 23 October 2024 and can be found on the TDC website at www.tendringdc.gov.uk/consultations.
