Opportunity for residents to talk to councillors and officers about the major regeneration schemes underway in Paignton

Torbay Council are holding its next Resident Engagement Event on Saturday 23 November 2024 in Paignton town centre. The event stand will be located outside Iceland, from 10am – 4pm.

The focus of this event is on the redevelopment and improvement projects currently underway or about to get underway in Paignton. You will be able to find out more about the plans for Station Square, the Victoria Centre, the Paignton and Preston Promenade Scheme and the Oldway Mansion restoration project.

These bi-monthly events are a chance to meet councillors (of all parties) and council staff to talk about what matters to you. They also help capture thoughts and feedback on consultations, changes to policies and services. 

Cllr Chris Lewis, Deputy Leader and Cabinet Member for Place Development and Economic Growth, said: "The way we use our town centres has changed. We are at the start of some significant changes being made to Paignton. The end result will see the provision of much needed housing for local people, the area rejuvenated and businesses being attracted back into the town. Alongside this, the Masterplan for the seafront areas will protect the town from rising sea levels and flooding.

“I’d encourage anyone who lives or works in the bay to come along to the event and have a chat with us to fully understand our plans to ensure Paignton’s town centre and high street remains fit for the future.”
