A special meeting is being organised to help young people in Wallingford get their own purpose-built youth centre.
The meeting will be attended by Wallingford Town Council, South Oxfordshire District and Oxfordshire County council.
As an interim measure, while the present centre in Clapcot Way is closed, the county council is making the premises it owns at 61 High Street available as a drop-in centre for young people.
The move was instigated by town mayor Theresa Jordan.
She told the town council: "The youth provision in Wallingford has always been makeshift but run by dedicated and hard working people.
"We need a purpose-built centre fit for the 21st century, somewhere the youth of Wallingford can be proud of.
"Clapcot Way is central and an ideal site.
"We must now have some positive action and positive thinking to get a proper centre."
She said that although youth provision was a county council responsibility there should be input from town and district councils to get the best for the town's young people.
Mayor-elect Nigel Moor said ground floor rooms at the 61 High Street site should be made available as a drop-in centre.
