County council backs investment to support businesses and communities
Council bosses have pledged investment to support businesses and communities during the Covid pandemic.
Staffordshire County Council will invest in "business sites, superfast broadband, roads and schools", said its leader, Councillor Alan White.
The local authority's cabinet backed proposals for the investment at a meeting held on Wednesday night.
Councillor White said: "With the imposition of the latest national lockdown, it’s more important than ever that we carry on doing all we can to help Staffordshire’s businesses and communities get moving again when the opportunity arises.
"We will invest in business sites, superfast broadband, roads and schools to support existing businesses and lay the foundations for new ones, while helping young people get a good education.”
