A £100,000 Burnley town centre 'masterplan' has been confirmed to go ahead.
Council bosses have agreed for a team of experts to come up with a 'masterplan' for the town centre.
The group will be tasked with increasing leisure opportunities, promoting town centre living in older offices and create a parking plan.
Key sites that lend themselves to opportunities for redevelopment include Curzon Street, Place De Vitry, Manchester Road and the King Street Car Park.
Burnley Council leader Cllr Mark Townsend said: "It is absolutely a good thing. It should help Burnley town centre for a long time.
"It should make sure the future will feature retail opportunities and places for town centre living for people in the area."
The council will contribute £60,000 towards the plan, with £20,000 coming from the One Public Estate programme and £20,000 from the Homes and Communities Agency.
