Milton Keynes City Council and TOWN are committed to continuing the open and consultative approach to community engagement followed during the planning process (you can read about this in our archive).
Agora Regeneration Working Group
The Agora Regeneration Working Group, which brings together representatives of the Town Council, local businesses, faith groups and community organisations with Milton Keynes City Council and TOWN to discuss and resolve issues relating to the project, continues to meet with the addition of resident representatives and new terms of reference focused on the wider supporting works and monitoring the delivery of regeneration. Following the successful outcome of the bid for Community Improvement District (CID) funding, the Working Group will be the group that supports the establishment of the CID moving forward. For more information on the CID, please see here.
