MILLIONS of pounds of schemes on the drawing board on the Yorkshire Coast promise to benefit the local economy in the long term said the leader of Scarborough Borough Council, in her annual report.
Councillor Eileen Bosomworth told the authority that in addition to regeneration schemes at Scarborough there had been improvement schemes at Whitby, Filey and Staithes, all aimed at boosting the economy and job prospects.
She said: "The council has made many partnerships and is receiving funding support from various agencies.
"By continuing to work with partners in the private and public sector the council hopes to deliver further improvements which will benefit the community.
"Looking forward, it is clear that there is much to do but I feel the planning and forethought that has been developed in the last four years, will reap considerable benefits."
She said schemes being planned include the £100m North Bay development which is to go before planners in the next few weeks to provide a hotel, apartments and umbrella complex for holidaymakers, and the refurbishment of Peasholm park.
