Date Received	Public Question to the Town Council	Submitted By
1.05.24	I agree that Council should actively seek to work in positive collaboration with the Public to benefit Saltash, but may I ask that Council uses correct and accepted terminology, because the document produced by the Town Vision Group is, only an ambitious vision and 'wish list', and does not contain the necessary financial information in sufficient detail to properly be called a Business Plan?
