November 9, 1979

REDDITCH folk have been given the chance to help shape the future of the town.

They are being asked for their comments on the county council's structure plan for Redditch in the 1990s.

Residents will be able to tell the council whether they think Redditch is large enough as it is - or whether it should continue to grow.

The plan outlines the housing, employment, traffic and social make-up of the town.

County council Labour leader Walter Stranz said that at the moment, it was only a draft report.

It could be amended when people in the town have had their say.

The report is available for inspection at Redditch Council's offices in Salop Road.
