Policy into practice on York Central
August 16, 2018 @ 6:00 pm - 8:00 pm
York Central is the large piece of land between the railway station and Water End. A partnership of City of York Council, Network Rail, the National Railway Museum and Homes England is developing the site for housing and commercial space. To help develop the plans, a public engagement process called My York Central was undertaken in March and April, leading to a Vision, a summary Big Ideas and Principles. We are now exploring the ideas in more depth through a series of events. All very welcome.
6:00pm – 8:00pm Thursday 16th August
York Explore, Museum Street

York has signed up to a number of policies which reflect the principles and aspirations of local people and their representatives. We are a One Planet city which implies a broad set of principles; we are a Human Rights City and also a UNESCO Creative City. What do these, and other, pledges imply in terms of how we carry out development, and how are they shaping the proposals for York Central?
This will be a workshop session with talks by a number of people who can bring expertise and practical experience to the discussion, who will also be there to facilitate debate and help us finish with concrete next steps which we can take together.
This event is held in partnership with York Explore
