Town centre maintainance

The town centre - "shopping centre" continues to decline while the locals wait to see what will happen next. The biggest target for vandalism seems to be the old "Pik "n" Save" store beside the library. The wooden boards have now been ripped off leaving access to the dangerous building for any curious young explorers. It is also a magnet for nuisance fires. There has been no maintainance carried out since Balmore were bought out. I appreciate it does seem a waste of money boarding up a disused shop that may be scheduled for demolition but while the planning process seems to be in temporary limbo the shopping centre is still a fairly busy place with locals going to the library,Tweedie Hall,the health centre,RS Mcolls,Opticians,Chemist and of course the two housing offices,Linstone and Renfrewshire council. It would be great to see recognition of the fact that it is as yet not an abandonded shopping centre.  It would be even better to have a public update on the regeneration plan.
