Proper Funding for Barry Regeneration
The National Assembly for Wales is the beneficiary of revenue from the sale of land at Barry Waterfront, in the region of £60million and we believe should commit to reinvest a large proportion of that money in Barry.
This will assist in ensuring provision of much-needed community facilities, road and footpath linkages for greater access, social and environmental improvements, sustainable developments, educational opportunity, public art and heritage, tourism and economic development.
We the undersigned request that the National Assembly for Wales enables the Barry community to take ownership of its future, by setting it free from the cyclical nature of uncertain, centrally driven, grant funding competitions that do not empower local solutions to local problems, and enables a long-term funding commitment solution which is commensurate with the monies to be received by the National Assembly for Wales through sale of land at Barry Waterfront.
