We will be undertaking a project prioritisation and assessment process to ensure projects that are agreed for inclusion in Section 2 of the Town Investment Plan meet the requirements set out in the government's Town Deal Further guidance document Annex A – Intervention Framework, as well as other conditions required within the Further Guidance document. The further guidance document and town deal prospectus can be found via our website: https://www.hastings.gov.uk/regeneration/towndeal/3. If our Town Investment Plan is approved by government (decision likely by April 2021) then we will have up to a year to work with project leads to develop business cases for each project we are requesting Town Deal funding for. This will likely require professional expertise.
