Welwyn Hatfield MP Andrew Lewin called for a town-centre regeneration programme at Prime Minister's Questions on November 4.
He said: "Hatfield has a proud history, but our town centre is not the destination it could or should be.
"We need to unlock public and private investment in a regeneration programme."
First Secretary of State Louise Haigh backed the proposal, saying it could fit the Government’s existing investment plans.
She said: "At the Budget, we made clear our commitment to creating good growth in every postcode, driving regeneration in every part of Britain.
"That commitment was backed by £80 million of new funding for the local renewal fund to support projects that create jobs, invest in local economic regeneration and boost growth.
"His proposal is a very good fit for that funding, and I will ensure he meets the relevant Minister to discuss."
Welwyn Hatfield Borough Council leader Rose Grewal welcomed the Government’s support.
She said: "This comes at a crucial time for Hatfield.
"The council is developing a health and wellbeing-led masterplan for the town centre.
"Central government support would be invaluable in helping us unlock opportunities for new homes, leisure facilities and economic growth."
