People running businesses in Halifax town centre have until Friday 20 November to enquire about joining the Halifax Development Board.

 The council is seeking new members from the private sector to join representatives of local government, businesses and the voluntary and community sector.

 The board promotes investment in Halifax and the surrounding area. Its work includes supporting the town centre’s development, considering transport and traffic issues, and involving local businesses and community groups in regeneration.

 It also contributes to the Halifax Town Centre Masterplan, The Next Chapter programme and the town’s Business Improvement District.

 The invitation offers business managers a route to contribute their experience of trading in the town and the changes they would like to see.

For details of the role and the application process, the council asks interested people to email rob.shipway@calderdale.gov.uk by 20 November.
