What next for Newcastle's parks? An urgent need for a serious business plan: - Parks and allotments back under city council's direct control after failure of Urban Green Newcastle (and significant cost to taxpayer). - Lib Dems warned that forecasts for Urban Green were unrealistic and that due diligence was not followed. - We're now pushing the council to be clear on exactly how they're going to invest in all of our city's park assets so residents can enjoy them long into the future. "If we're going to safeguard the future of the city's parks for current and future generations for many, many years to come, we need a serious business plan." - Colin Ferguson, Leader, Newcastle Liberal Democrats and Leader of the Opposition Liberal Democrats - Because Newcastle Deserves Better
