A regeneration tsar has been unveiled as the man tasked to lead the Aberdeen City Centre masterplan project.
Marc Cole has been offered the post of city centre director – a role especially created to deliver “investment, jobs and enhancing quality of life” as part of the local authority’s multimillion-pound vision for the next 20 years.
Mr. Cole – who has been praised in the past for how he led the regeneration of North East Lincolnshire in his time with the council – is currently based in York, where he is director of a consultancy business which prides itself on spearheading “local government transformation”.
The city centre director will provide leadership on all aspects of the city centre masterplan, an ambitious and exciting 25-year regeneration programme for the city.
