Coventry City Council Round-Up

Here is all of your Coventry City Council news from over the weekend.

City Centre South Development Continues:

As one place is destroyed, another is being built. City Centre South is going under development. 

Councillor Jim O’Boyle said, “The demolition is imminent.” 

The “site will be the first of residential blocks going on here, we will see them coming out of the ground, as well as a number of social houses will be appearing.”

“When full development is in swing, 500 workers will be working here, and of course, when we invest in our city, investors come to our city.”

“New homes, new shops, new venues and plenty of green spaces. City Centre South is really taking shape.”

Ball Hill clean-up scheme:

Coventry City Council have been working with residents of Ball Hill to improve the area. This is after further advancements in the budget that can be used to invest in the City.
