The proposal, originally introduced by former council leader Garry Perry as a budget-saving measure, has sparked significant community debate and divided opinions among local representatives. The Leather Museum, a valued cultural and historical asset situated at Littleton Street West, currently costs the council £288,000 annually to operate.
