Board
In order to access the funding, Nelson has established a Town Deal Board.

Investment Plan
One of the key tasks of the Board is to develop a Town Investment Plan. This Plan must set out a clear understanding of the area in terms of its needs, the challenges it faces and the opportunities to improve the future of Nelson. The Town Investment Plan will set out a clear vision and strategy for the economic growth of Nelson over the next decade, including recovery from the current COVID crisis.

The plan will include details of the projects we want to deliver in order to achieve our vision and the amount of funding we require from the Government. Once prepared, the plan will be submitted to the Government for them to consider.
Updates on progress with developing the plan and ways in which you can get involved will be posted on this website.
