Councillor Stacey Devine wants Falkirk Council to use regeneration funding to get some helps for the town
A Bo'ness councillor is asking Falkirk Council to look at ways to protect and rejuvenate Bo'ness town centre in the future.
However, she was told the matter was more appropriate to be discussed at the council's executive, which will meet again in August.Her motion states: "Council recognises the challenges faced by Bo'ness town centre due to the difficult UK-wide economic conditions, and the pressures faced by retail operators.
"Council agrees that a report should come back to Executive as soon as possible to enable elected members to agree an approach that protects the centre, and offers opportunities for growth and that the report should explore options for the future use of a refreshed regeneration fund to support a master plan for Bo'ness town centre, noting the success of the current fund in relation to Slamannan, Bonnybridge, Bainsford and Langlees and Dunipace.
