John Mitchell Strategic Director for Adur & Worthing Councils will join and give an insight into City Deals.
Worthing and Adur are considered to be part of the Greater Brighton area and are part of this deal
20 cities and their surrounding areas were invited to compete for the opportunity to negotiate a City Deal. The deals would see government give powers to the city in exchange for the city taking on the responsibility of creating economic growth in its area.
In January 2013, each city submitted an initial proposal on how to improve a serious local economic problem.
To secure a deal with government, each city had to show in its proposals for growth that it:
•
can prove how it will take greater responsibility and leadership with decisions affecting its local economy
• will use the advice, expertise, and resources of the private sector
• is dedicated and ready to put resources into the deal
• has plans on using public money wisely
• can improve its area by following the government’s strategy of lowering regulation, boosting private sector growth, and making it easier for businesses to grow
