To have a thriving economy, built around our changing town centres, creating a quality environment for all and improving the life chances of all those living and working in our borough.
Thriving Local Economy
The nature of the local economy continues to change and we will be playing an active role in creating the right conditions for local businesses to thrive. We will continue to grow the local economy, attracting businesses to our employment sites.
High Quality Environment
The high quality of our natural environment is something local people love and take pride in. The council recognises the value of our physical and built environment and the particular importance of our Pennine uplands and villages.
Health and Proud Communities
Having access to a good quality home to either rent or buy plays a fundamental part in our residents' quality of life. We want people to live long healthy lives and take pride in their communities.
Effective and Efficient Council
It is important that we are an effective and efficient Council - one with ambition, clear direction, which delivers good quality services and which provides good value for money to our residents.
