In advance of Cabinet, Ward Councillors will be offered briefing sessions to discuss the latest position, and all key stakeholders will be engaged as the project progresses.   Consultation   This report deals with the delivery of one part of the Blueprint. The Blueprint was subject to several engagement exercises commencing in 2018 as part of the Blueprint development and then again late in 2019 after the Blueprint launch the council undertook a Place Standard exercise to benchmark public reaction to the approach and projects. The results from this exercise show there is a great desire to bring the George into active use. The key report for this can be found by accessing the following link: https://howgoodisourplace.org.uk/huddersfield-town-centre/   Moving forward, the detailed designs will be subject to formal consultation through the planning stage where all parties, including members of the public, will have access to detailed plans and will be able to comment on the proposals.
