Work on one Whitby renovation scheme could start in May and there has been positive feedback on another scheme according to a local councillor.
Plans for a maritime training centre in Whitby have been well received according to one local councillor.
North Yorkshire Council carried out a consultation on the proposals and while the results are not yet know, local councillor Neil Swannick says he's heard that the feedback was positive.
In an update to town Councillors, Councillor Swannick also said that work to revamp the area around Whitby's Old Town Hall could start in May.
The Hall is to be restored to become an art gallery, museum, public space, and retail area with increased facilities also set to be provided to market traders.
The market square is also set to receive upgrades in the form of level paving and hand railings.
North Yorkshire Councillor Neil Swannick says work is underway to appoint a contractor for the works.
Planning permission for the Town hall works was granted in July last year. The plan includes the renovation of the first floor and attic rooms – which have not been occupied or used since 2017 – as an art gallery and studio for resident artists, whilst a kitchenette, heating, and a bathroom would also be added in addition to proposed window repairs. The scheme received a Towns Fund contribution of £1m.
