'The market has a long history around redevelopment, there were going to be lots of changes but not now'
Worries about relationships between Clitheroe market stall-holders and Ribble Valley Council over planned £250,000 market upgrades, along with reports of disagreement among traders themselves, have been raised by councillors.
The market upgrade and talks with traders were raised at the latest full council meeting. In a questions session, Labour Coun Lee Jameson, the opposition group leader, said: "Spending money on the market is good. There's a lot to do, to upgrade the market area and make it more attractive for people to visit and spend money. We need a long term plan.
Coun Atkinson added: "The market director meets traders quarterly and has talks. Future investment will follow after talks with traders and others to make sure future plans will benefit the market. The market has a long history around redevelopment. There were going to be lots of changes but not now. I and other councillors have spoken to traders and heard different views. We have parked some ideas for the time being, which I think is sensible.
