Representation Summary:

There are so many derelict pubs and business premises which surely need demolition. Our city centre is becoming a laughing stock because of the amount of abandoned buildings and eyesores. The UTC site has become famous for its development and careful use. Can we not learn from that?
Rebuild our city. Let people live there, near their jobs and colleges, needing less transport to get them there. It means that safety in the city increases. The more people living there, the more presence of inhabitants, the less crime there will be. I totally support the use of our city for housing around local shops. We need the economy to be rebuilt in town. City living is to be encouraged as opposed to removal of wildlife.
