It was great to meet with the Gillingham Taskforce for another productive discussion about local high street regeneration and how we can build our local economy and improve the town centre. A big thanks to our Environmental Services team whose use of Fixed Penalty Notice’s has resulted in a reduction in littering on our high street over the past year. We also discussed plans to tackle derelict and empty properties, such as the old McDonald’s site, amongst a number of other issues. Updates on this and progress to date will be provided soon.
