The order is good for 3 months since May 2020 and means that their flat and communal areas in and around the block are “closed”. The resident of the particular flat involved should have also been removed but with the pandemic it could not be done. BR wants to extend the order for a further 3 months once it’s over. \n·        BR has a wider plan for the estate which will take place in the next weeks/months. This plan is to tackle issues of drug dealing\, prostitution\, tailgating to gain access to the buildings on the estate\, loitering\, rough sleeping etc. She also wants to launch a neighbourhood watch. She is working on the new CCTV project and solving the issue that the fire key holes allow anyone to gain access to the blocks. She also has legal resources to tackle anti-social behaviour towards individuals at fault. She wants to keep the reputation of the estate that it is not somewhere people can come and create trouble. This will include the set-up of a Neighbourhood watch area and further details will be sent to residents on this and how to get involved. \n·        There are two DWOs (dedicated ward offices) patrolling the estate. Their patrol is led by reports so residents should continue to report if they want higher patrolling.\nGet a timeframe for the solution to the problem of fire key misuse. \n  \nSend an update letter to all residents about the entire plan for Anti-Social Behaviour and Crime on the Estate.\nBR\n\n\n3\nUpdate on Older Blocks – Led by Annette Reid\n\n\n\n\n \n·        Update on previous concerns re cleaning/repairs \n·        This has been solved and the concerned residents have been updated. \n·        Update on flood affected flats and when residents due to return \n·        All residents affected on the estate are now back into their home. \n·        ASB in Bramfield\, Theobalds\, Datchworth \n·        Update from BR has covered this.\n\n\n\n\n4\nUpdate on Newer Blocks – Led by Bronwen Thomas\n\n\n\n\n \n·        Update on progress with ongoing snagging issues \nBroken doors: \no   Door handles will be changed\, Higgins is still being held responsible for some of those issues. Hackney’s maintenance contractor is looking at finding a long-term solution. \no   There was also a brief discussion on the issue of automatic door closures and the ongoing issue that is for estate members. In particular\, it was highlighted that the combination of poor door security with the ASB\, potential crime on the estate and mail being solen are related issues which combine to lead to some residents feeling unsafe. \nFire access key misuse: \no   The system will be changed; it has been agreed with the fire brigade. \nSmoke vent alarms: \no   Hackney’s maintenance contractor is currently looking at this (rather than Higgins resetting the faulty lights). Hackney is also trying to work out if they were built faulty or not. \nSlippery courtyard: \no   Higgins has agreed to clean the courtyards and to reapply the sealant. Higgins will also do individual ground floor properties; these properties will be contacted by Higgins directly. \nHeating costs increase – competitive price? \no   No updates but action taken by Hackney \nGraffiti in lifts: \no   The maintenance of the lifts is now with Hackney rather than Higgins and the team should be able to do something about this. \nPossible CCTV for bike stores: \no   The project has been on hold because of lock down restrictions but Hackney is still investigating the cost for this. \no   Clare Potter mentions that there have been lots of large scale bike thefts in Brownswood so it may be an organised group. BR takes note of this. \no   A resident mentions that the outdoor bike stores at Sandon Court are designed in a way where several locks need to be used to lock the frame and wheels. \no   Questions are raised as to whether garda keys can open the cupboard where the electricity board is? \nPigeons: \no   Hackney will not go ahead with their suggested plan to apply repellent gel as it is too expensive for an estate-wide solution and there was insufficient support from residents. \nASB – drugs and prostitution: \no   Update already covered by BR \nMail theft: \no   Bianca suggests that residents have their post delivered to a collection point when not in to receive the package. \nLifts keep breaking: \no   No update at this point \nKimpton Court address did not register on emergency services system in June 2020 \nDogs fouling in courtyards: \no   There are no legal actions that Hackney can take against residents about owning a dog\, unless it is a “dangerous dogs.” Residents can exercise their dogs on green shared places but not where there are children’s playing amenities. If anyone is aware of a dog owner not picking after their dog they can contact Hackney who will follow this up with the relevant resident. \n \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \nGet a letter to be sent to residents explaining how the heating rate is competitive \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \nWorking with emergency services to solve this\n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \nBT (with Donna) \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \nBT\, Hackney\n\n\n5\nTimeline for phases 3&4 and Section 20 notice – Led by John Morris\n\n\n\n\n \n·        Projected timeline for refurbishment of Southside blocks and building of new blocks: \n·        Sign-off of the contract should happen in March 2021 after the tender process and the negotiation \n·        The refurbishment works should start in October 2021 and complete around Oct 2022 \n·        Entire project including new builds should be complete by Summer 2024 (but timelines can slip) \n·        Section 20 notice (only relevant to leaseholders in Southside blocks).

There are still issues in Redbourne\, Kimpton & Wallington Court. It is unclear what will be covered by Higgins and what will go through service charges or a different pot of money from the new build team (which is not recharged to residents through service charges). \n·        Hackney is working on getting a quote to have CCTV installed in the bike stores. At this point this is just a study. It hasn’t been decided whether or not it will happen. \n·        Graffiti in the lifts\, Hackney is looking at changing the material so that it cannot be scratched. Andrew ask that Redborne is added on to the list of lifts to be upgraded. \n·        Hackney has a new contractor to maintain the HIU. \n·        The smoke vent lights coming on: now that the maintenance contract with Higgins is over\, Hackney will look into a long-term solution rather than having Higgins just resetting the system every time it trips. \n·        All of Kings Crescent buildings now have a document (available on request) that conforms with mortgage provider’s requirement regarding the cladding fire hazard. \n·        Regarding the key holes that everybody can open (those keys are easily available): The police suggests that a plastic box is fitted over them but the fire brigade recommends not to. A meeting is organised between Hackney\, the police and the fire brigade to find the best solution. \n· \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nHackney is still in the opinion that Higgins should pay for a long-term solution regarding the paving that is growing mould. They are fighting to say that it is a defect. Hackney will look into trying the have the private terraces dealt with by Higgins as well as the shared area. \n· \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPigeon solution. Hackney is waiting for the reply from residents to decide if they will go ahead with the gel. The cost would be £130 per household if it is done estate wide. If it doesn’t go ahead\, Hackney will be able to go advice on what product to get. DA stated that there is a product that can be purchased by individuals affected which only costs £20-30. EP asked that this option be given to residents now as the current survey feels very all or nothing. \n·        Community safety team is looking into the issues of prostitution\, drugs etc. Phase 2 has been approved and will be launched (phase 1 already happened). \n·        ASB can be reported to the ASB team (from Hackney)\, the community safety team (from Hackney) and the Brownswood safe neighbourhood team (police). There is also an app that can be used to help rough-sleepers if that is the concern being reported: streetlink. All ASB should be reported so there is a record of the magnitude of the issue. The police will not intervene instantly but when they have resources to spare\, they need the intelligence to be able to target the problematic areas. \n· \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe Capital Camera Replacement Programme mentioned during the last meeting will start in May. CCTV will be added where needed for example in the corner if Bramfield Court. \n·        Heating rate increase. Hackney will not recover the cost that has been lost up to now. Residents want to know how does Hackney make sure the gas they buy to run the central heating plant is at a competitive price. \n·        On the 22 March there will be a communal walkabout for people to point out what they would like to see refreshed. Meet at 10am Vince Murrain Hall. \n \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \nHackney (DA)\n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \nRe-issue the letter with the deadline and the information about the product \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \nFind the information and share it with residents regarding how they are making sure the gas they buy is at a competitive rate.uct.\n\n\n3\nAmendments to TRA constitution & new policies\n \n \n\n\n \n  \n·        Amend details that are causing issues setting up a bank account \n·        Sarah proposes that the updates to the constitution and the finance policy are approved and Jill seconds.

Police have been conducting regular patrols and some residents stated that there has been a slight improvement.\nA resident from Therefield court (Kings Crescent estate) stated that ASB was still bad around the location. There has been reports of people hanging around the bin shed area taking drugs and by prostitutes. Police attended and caught two people who were hanging around the location. There are also concerns about prostitutes who are seen at 9:30am. These problems are apparent outside Therefield and Kelshall court.\nBianca Rembrandt updated residents about herself liaising with Annette Reid and cleaners who operate on the estate. The plan is to carry out further interventions\, have stronger interactions and send out community protection warnings. There has been work around gathering as much information in a hope that the courts will work in our favour. Enforcement officers who operate in the area get challenged\, we target problem addresses and hope offenders do not return.\nCllr Potter stated that most problem are early in the morning.\nPS Durrant stated that we will look at calls and pay more attention to affected areas. We will also ask Op Vice to monitor the location to deal with prostitution. Op Vice is run by members of the safer neighbourhood’s team and more operations will be planned in the future.\nPC Hussain stated that we conduct weapons sweep and recently we got an arrest at Bramfield court. This helps us to recognise suspects operating in the area. Officers also hope to conduct more patrols in the area.\n\n  \n  \n  \nBlackstock road \n  \n\nPC Hussain updates residents on a tri borough operation on Blackstock road. There has been an increased effort to combine officers from neighbouring boroughs in order to deal with ASB issues at location. We will also request task force to come along more regularly to help with issues on Blackstock road.\nPS Durrant stated that we will request other officers from specialised units such as the task force to come from Mon-Thu. We will also ask street duties to also come along and show more visible presence.\nCllr Potter highlighted the issue with people not reporting matters enough to the police. Cllr Potter welcomes the news of Brownswood SNT bringing more officers to deal with ASB issues. Cllr Potter also stated that there is a walk around with Islington officers planned soon.\nPC Hussain stated that we identified a doorway area next to the Sainsbury’s which will be continuously looked at and targeted.\nOne of the residents stated that on a positive note they have witnessed more visibility of officers at Blackstock road recently.\nPS Durrant stated that officers from Islington are also helping patrol the area. The last operation carried out at the location helped gather a lot more intelligence with CCTV images. There will be a continuous effort to make these types of operations a more regular occurrence.\n\n  \n  \nGreen Lanes – Sainsbury’s \n  \n\nPC Hussain stated that we have more resources to tackle robberies and more patrols are conducted to prevent ASB issues.\nOne of the residents wished to highlight an area next to Clissold Park (Greenway road) where some of the main offenders hang around.\nPC Hussain provided an update about recent police activity where 3 people were arrested around the location.\nPS Durrant stated that we have combined officers from Clissold ward and Stoke Newington ward to patrol around Clissold Park. We have also requested Robbery squad to patrol the area in the evening time. The Met have also paid for a drone to cover the park area which would be a very useful tool to have.\n\n  \nOther Issues \n  \n\nPC Hussain stated that the police met with Clarion housing in order to suggest installing more CCTV around Barkway court. PC Hussain also stated that we have knocked on doors at Wilberforce road and Finsbury park road in order to encourage people to report crime as much as they can.\nA resident wished to highlight an issue with very noisy drug dealing and ASB activity which takes place at Brownswood road\, Wilberforce road and Mountgrove road.\nPS Durrant states that we are aware of issues on Wilberforce road\, Finsbury park road. We are working towards implementing a PSPO (Public spaces protection order) in order to deal with ASB issues. PS Durrant requests residents to continue in report to the police.\nA resident wished to highlight an issue with very noisy bikes on Finsbury park road. This is normally between 1:30 – 6:30pm.\nA resident from St johns court stated that he will be sending a letter to the estate manager (Jonathan West) and request more CCTV\, re enforcement of the entry doors and better fencing.\nCllr Potter offers all residents if anyone wished to volunteer themselves to chair the Brownswood ward panel meeting.\nPC Hussain stated that we plan to hold police public contact sessions on Blackstock road.

The answers provided were not satisfactory\, Annette is suggesting that those issues are raised at the steering group. \nClaire Potter also volunteers to deal with some of these issues. \nEmley explains that as a resident it’s difficult to get resolution and answers from Hackney as everybody says those particular issues are not dealt with by their department. \nAnnette suggests to also email neighbourhood@hackney.gov.uk where she can channel the issues to the right person. Alternatively the info@hackney.gov.uk is also an email address where any questions can be raised and the email will be passed on to the right department. \nDeborah suggest we (TRA) make an action plan where we keep track of the pending actions from Hackney and the dates issues were raised. This way there is track of how long issues take to get resolved and it easier for Hackney representatives to grasp the urgency of some of these pending actions. \nAnnette holds weekly (ish) meetings in the Vince Murrain Centre most Thursdays between 2-4pm. \nThe police will serve a 24hour notice to the travellers tonight and will be evicted within 2 weeks. At no point should residents approach these people\, they are not friendly travellers (some are but not them). There is a travellers’ officer who is happy to be contacted by any resident:  02083565154 angie.emmerson@hackney.gov.uk \n·        New Build Team: could not make it. \n·        Anti-social behaviour team (Bianca and Deborah) \n·        Deborah confirms that if a resident raises an issue\, the responding officer should update that resident regularly. Residents are raising the fact that Hackney doesn’t come back to people and that CCTV doesn’t work on the estate. Deborah also explains that crimes have to be dealt with by the police unless the criminal is a resident of the estate\, ASB team cannot do anything otherwise. \nBianca explains that if a resident is not happy with Hackney’s service\, they can raise the issue with a community trigger (against one person over several actions or against many people over one action). \nBianca has been patrolling the estate and she got suspicious people’s details who she has managed to link to people known from Hackney. Things are being done. \nAlice raises the issue of the CCTV and the fact that we can’t get a straight answer as whether or not is works. Deborah suggests residents ask for a job number when calling to raise this type of issue. \nAnnette took 14 actions regarding CCTV at the last meeting here are the update on these. In the new builds the cameras are working. On the old side: There are 5 cameras working at ?? Court. There were 15 cameras not working across the estate\, they have been removed. There is a capital camera replacement project for 2019-2020\, some of the cameras removed will be replaced during this project. \n·        Waste Operations \nBilly: the algae solution was to buff the top and clean\, now it needs to be sprayed regularly to keep on top of it but it shouldn’t come back. \nJill is asking how often the old blocks are being cleaned. Billy says every day\, Jill confirms this has not been the case recently. There is a problem of urine in the lift. \nPigeons: Charmaine has only got 97 responses out of over 500\, of them 27 said they were affected by the pigeons. In March there will be a pilot project costing £70\,000; a special gel will be used which looks like fire and scares pigeons. It should be around £130 per property.\nAnnette Reid & colleagues\nBilly\, Annette to send a list of contact at Hackney \n  \nEmley to email Claire Potter the list of issues regarding the new builds and discuss at Steering Group. \n  \nNewBuild to send update on CCTV and security \n  \nDS to send the Community Trigger information \n  \nAnnette will invite the New Build Team to the next TRA meeting \nAnnette will find out if the pigeon gel is a one payment for a few years or if this is a yearly cost \n  \nTRA to create an action plan\n\n\n3\nUnit C Update\n \n \n\n\n \n·        Introduction to Hackney Showroom \nHackney Showroom are the new tenant of Unit C. \nSam explains that Hackney Showroom has been around Hackney for a long time and they produce shows and organise event for Hackney community (activities for kids\, adult learning etc.). \n  \n·        Update on progress so far and funding opportunities \nHS and the TRA have a plan of sharing the space but are trying to find funding for creating a division to create two places. Hackney Showroom wants to have a clear plan of the future before signing up for a 5year lease with Hackney. \nEmley and HS have put a few applications for funding for joint events and activities.\nEmley/Sam\nEmley to update the TRA on tomorrow’s meeting on Unit C funding for the division/sharing\n\n\n4\nTRA Update\n \n \n\n\n \nEvents & Family fun mornings going well.\nEmley\n \n\n\n \nBank account & finances \nOne person yet to provide details to open the bank account and then 5 working days to do so should be open in January 2020. \nAlice gives an explanation of the Finance Policy she wrote. Emley suggests that section 3 is different for the funding coming from Hackney. She proposes this is excluded from the level one as the £3000 could disappear fast if many people request £500 each. \nSH propose that the policy is approved\, including the proposed changes. Jill seconds.

Unfortunately we are too late to apply to do this officially so we will just be putting up bunting and politely asking people not to drive through from about 11am-4pm for the duration of the party including set up/clear away. Notices will be sent out about this to all residents. We will also need volunteers to marshal this during the party to ensure kids are safe if they are playing on the road\, walking down to the basketball court etc \nFor a map of the requested vehicle-free area and key locations during the event see: \nhttps://www.google.com/maps/d/viewer?mid=1XeuZ7mbslsm6jelUPvgv9LXI7LyzqDfO&usp=sharing \n  \nTo contact the KC TRA committee please email kcresidentsgroup@outlook.com \n(This will be happening instead of the family fun morning that normally takes place on the last Saturday of the month) URL:https://kingscrescent.org/calendar/community-street-party/ LOCATION:Play Street\, 4 murrain road\, London\, N4 2BN\, United Kingdom CATEGORIES:community event,Family fun ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://kingscrescent.org/wp-content/uploads/2019/07/Happy-to-have-play-st-barrier.jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=Europe/London:20190921T100000 DTEND;TZID=Europe/London:20190921T160000 DTSTAMP:20260404T010742 CREATED:20190906T113245Z LAST-MODIFIED:20190908T203851Z UID:808-1569060000-1569081600@kingscrescent.org SUMMARY:Open House London 2019 DESCRIPTION:Open House is a celebration of London’s architecture both old and new.

We are offering tours of the estate on the hour every hour. This will include the new streets and the landscaped courtyards. We would also like to show visitors the lobby areas of the new blocks (Kimpton & Wallington only).\nVisitors will be accompanied by members of staff at all times in small tour groups. Hackney staff and members of the design team will be leading the tours.\n\n\nThere will be posters put up on the day on all the block entrances stating that they are not open to the public to ensure anyone visiting is aware that the Open House does not mean ‘access all areas’.\n\n\nThe project team at the council would like to thank all the residents of Kings Crescent\, and we hope that the visits will not cause any disturbance to you. If you would like to come along please drop in on the day\, the meeting point will be on Murrain Road\, near Sainsbury’s.\n\n\n\nA flyer will be circulated to all residents soon with a summary of the information.\n\nIf there are any concerns or questions please contact Bronwen who is organising this event: bronwen.thomas@hackney.gov.uk URL:https://kingscrescent.org/calendar/open-house-london-2019/ CATEGORIES:Open House END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=Europe/London:20190918T160000 DTEND;TZID=Europe/London:20190918T190000 DTSTAMP:20260404T010742 CREATED:20190912T220037Z LAST-MODIFIED:20190912T220037Z UID:823-1568822400-1568833200@kingscrescent.org SUMMARY:Volunteer Fair N1 6SH DESCRIPTION:Anyone interested in volunteering?

A draft safeguarding policy has been prepared. \n  \nTraining is offered for safeguarding. \n  \nSafeguarding champion: Jennifer F can take named person as safeguarding champion and already has the relevant requirements (eg.

AH supplemented with a few extra details – in particular residents have been involved in reviewing the service charges which are about to be sent out. This shows a positive step forward though the draft charges were not without error.\nAlice\nAlice and other committee members to work with Hackney to review service charges\n\n\n4\nUpdate on available community funding \n(Hackney funding and income from film crew rent) \n  \nEP gave an update on Finances. \n£2500 initial pot initially for the KCRG at the start of the year \n£500 ‘big lunch’ funding \nSpent: Only money spent so far has been on the coach trip (around £700). \n  \nHackney have been renting out hoarded area for film crews and  the fee taken for this has been shared: \n25% for new community centre\, Ron and Bronwen’s team \n25% of the rental price goes to the TRA \n50% for Hackney \nRent: c.£3500 for TRA to date \n  \nNoise disturbance has been limited\, slight issue originally but seems to have been resolved. \nCrews need to come in at 5am and it was agreed at steering committee that this would continue. \n  \n£500 of costs funding available for running the TRA (eg. Printing). (initially documented as £600 in draft minutes but corrected by EH prior to publication) \n  \nEH confirmed that we would need to apply for funding for community events (eg. Christmas event\, February party). Forms are on Hackney website. EH would provide additional support during the interim process of us setting up the TRA though it was stressed that we would need to start applying formally for council funding and Emma H will share the forms and rules around this. \n  \nConfirmed that the cash from the film crews has no time limit over where it needs to be spent. \nIt was highlighted that there are opportunities to use the cash we have currently to apply for matched funding grants. \nLikely also that when the new developer is on site\, there may be other money available to contribute to community events. \n  \n  \nOther funding: “Estate walk around” budget which is to fix issues identified via the estate walkaround – though note this can end up being added to service charges \n  \n \nEmley/Emma H\nEH to send details of how to apply for the community funding \nEP to coordinate event planning for upcoming events to ensure application done in time \n  \nAH to keep track of available funding\n\n\n5\nUpcoming Community Events:\n \n \n\n\n \n‘Big Lunch’ community street party 28 September \n(Updates\, ideas and planning) \n  \n£500 for big lunch\, funding from Hackney. \nCommunity big lunch will be on play street with community centre near unit C. \nPlay bus has been booked and parked near unit C. \nDimensions checked with play bus company and driver did a site visit to ensure they can get in and out of the estate. \n  \nWe will be asking residents to bring a dish to share. TD suggested to have catering too as a back up\, this was agreed. JWM will ask if Otantic can provide some catering for the event. \n  \nEmma C. suggested running an art event and will coordinate that. \n  \nJWM to ask two residents who belong to a steel band to see if they can come and play for an hour. \n  \nTotal event time is planned for 12.30-3pm \n  \nBring and take exchange event – ‘swap shop’ suggested by JWM. Emilie volunteered to help coordinate/arrange. \n  \nWe cannot officially close the road as it is a private road. There is a plan to coordinate a polite notice to ask people not to use the road. \nEmma C. suggested having a joint invitation/polite notice to not use the road. Emma H. confirmed that this is possible but the wording would need to be sent to her by Monday. \n  \nWill need insurance in place prior to event\nEmley\nELG to draft wording for invite/notice – to be with EH by Monday\n\n\n \nChristmas event early December \n  \nTentative plan for the following\, Alice and Sarah H will take a lead in organising though all welcome and if anyone else is keen to help organise\, please let us know. \n5-6pm children’s activities. \n6-7:30pm: mulled ??? (wine/juice) with carols – if wine this will need to not come from Hackney funds. \n7:30pm residents meeting\nAlice\nAH and SH to plan event and apply for funding at least 6 weeks in advance\n\n\n \nFebruary party – will be planned but details TBC later. To go on agenda for December meeting. \n \nEmley\n \n\n\n \nAny other ideas? \n  \nAdditional event: \nPumpkin carving/Autumn event – Sarah C agreed to coordinate – maybe Saturday 26th October. \nIt was suggested this would be combined with the Family Fun morning. \n  \n \n \nSC and EP to plan event asap to apply for funding\n\n\n6\nEstate Issues\nEmley/Annette\n \n\n\n \nUpdates from steering group on new build planning\, pigeons\, courtyard\, new community centre plans etc \n  \nSource Partnership are remaining our independent residents support organisation. \nPlanning Committee meeting is coming up soon and is open to the public\, anyone can go\, can apply for a slot to speak (c. 3 min). \n  \nOpen house on the estate 21st September – guided tour offered to public. John from Source will confirm what the arrangements are. \n  \nThere was a discussion about the CCTV cameras across the estate and also the break-in where several bikes were stolen. \nA few of the key details: \n·        Ron/Bronwen confirmed all CCTV cameras working though there may be an issue with how images are stored/reviewed. \n·        28th June – housing officer and other staff members did a walk about on older blocks\, as well as some newer blocks. This confirmed that some cameras had been sprayed over. \n·        Weston court didn’t have CCTV\, this has been now added. \n·        Newer blocks\, the CCTV cameras do work but there is potentially an issue with the centralised system. And also potentially an issue with there being a lack of resource at the council to view and assess images. \n·        Bramfield court (exterior of block)\, new cameras were brought but sprayed over again within 24 hours. . \n·        The other concern is that when bikes were stolen (after the door was released)\, all internal doors were also open to the public. \n·        It was noted by a resident that the police closed the second bike theft case as there was no CCTV evidence. Several residents emphasised that we want Hackney to confirm why the CCTV camera footage was not able to be released to the Police? We pay for CCTV coverage and yet there have been more than one occasion where a crime has been committed and the Police could not access the CCTV footage from Hackney. Therefore\, residents are seeking both confirmation that CCTV cameras are operational and an explanation as to why\, in the event of the bike theft\, was that footage not able to be shared with the Police.  Annette confirmed that she would find out why the local authority was not able to release the CCTV footage to the police. \n·        Roy made a request to find out: Why all cameras have been removed from Datchworth? \nHousing Officer (Annette) confirmed that she would find specific answers to the questions above and send the answers to the TRA. \n  \nIt was suggested that at a later TRA meeting\, we could invite Safer Neighbourhoods team. Or in fact\, anyone from Hackney could be invited so we could invite someone from the CCTV team\, head of cleaning\, etc. etc. \n  \nAzalia Court\, community hall\, bi-monthly meeting Community Action Panel (CAP) meeting held by the policy. The CAP meeting dates will be shared with the  TRA. The two councillors will usually attend these meetings: Councillor Bell\, Councillor Potter\, \n \n \nAR to follow up on issues raised\n\n\n \nCCTV update – as above\n \n \n\n\n \nCladding certification \n  \n1.      Delays on the provision of a certificate which demonstrates that the cladding is suitable and meets post-Grenfel regulations. \n2.      It seems likely that this is available though there are some questions remaining on whether it is the right format for some mortgage lenders. \n \n \n \n\n\n \nAny other estate concerns? \n  \nBollard incidents – Ron at Hackney has been made aware of the number of people hitting the bollards. \n  \nOutstanding defects: \n·        One door – Kimpton court – is broken. Ron is now aware\, however\, this has been a fault for sometime. \n·        Algae/mould in the courtyard (Barley Court\, Chipping court etc) – the council are aware that this is an issue but is an ongoing discussion between Hackney and Higgins as to who is responsible. No resolution in sight yet. \n  \n \n \n \n\n\n7\nAny other business? \n  \nWho does what in council? \n1.      New build team: Charmaine and John. New person replacing Evelena. \n2.      Management of New build will move to Annette and her team\, Housing management on 16th September. Works closely with Karl\, Ron and  Bronwen. \n  \nThey have a generic email address – neighbourhood@hackney.gov.uk \nAndrea Scott – Area Manager \n  \nSimon Ware will move to a new role\, the members passed on his thanks and best wishes for the future. \n  \nWe formally thanked Roy for all his efforts for the residents committee in the past. \n  \nNone other raised\n \n \n\n\n8\nDates of next meetings (5th December & TBC) \n2020 dates TBC \nDay of the week may change from Thursdays to facilitate Councillor Potter being able to join. \n \n \nEP to check dates with Cllr Potter and AR\n\n\n8\nSocial time \nSeveral residents stayed on for a drink after\n \n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n  \nPrevious post: \nCome along to meet your neighbours\, find out about fun activities coming up\, make suggestions for events you would like to see on Kings Crescent\, get involved etc. \nThere will also be a Hackney representative attending the meeting so you can discuss any issues you might be experiencing on the estate \nWe will be deciding at this meeting if we are wanting to transition into a ‘Tenants & Residents Association’ rather than the ‘supported residents group’ that we currently are meaning we are supported by Hackney’s resident participation team. Being a TRA will allow us a bit more independence and to have our own bank account and therefore apply for external funding\, grants etc for any projects we want to do. We will also be receiving an income from the film crews using the hoarded area so we need a bank account for that! \nWe require a minimum of 15 residents to vote for us to become a TRA so please come along if you can to support the residents group and have a say in what happens on Kings Crescent. \nIf you would like to be involved or join the committee please email us to let us know what position you would like or to discuss what options are available: kcresidentsgroup@outlook.com \nSee full agenda below and minutes of the meeting will be posted here within a week of the meeting so you can always catch up with what happened if you can’t make it on the day. \n\n\n\n \nAgenda Item\nSuggested \nTiming\nLead\n\n\n1\nWelcome and Introductions\n5 mins\nEmley/Emma\n\n\n2\nTRA Transition\n30 mins\nEmma H\n\n\n \nPublic vote to change from supported residents’ group to official Tenants and Residents Association (TRA) – minimum 15 votes to pass\n\n\n\n\n \nApprove constitution\n\n\n\n\n \nElect TRA committee (minimum 12)\n\n\n\n\n \nDiscuss next steps\n\n\n\n\n3\nBrief feedback on events so far: \n10 mins\n\n\n\n \nFamily fun mornings (last Saturday of month)\n\nEmley\n\n\n \nMorning tea for gardeners\n\nSarah H/C\n\n\n \nSeaside visit\n\nPatricia/Emley\n\n\n \nUpdates since Service Charges meeting\n\nAlice\n\n\n4\nUpdate on available community funding \n(Hackney funding and income from film crew rent)\n5 mins\nEmley/Emma H\n\n\n5\nUpcoming Community Events:\n20  mins\n\n\n\n \n‘Big Lunch’ community street party 28 September \n(Updates\, ideas and planning)\n\nEmley\n\n\n \nChristmas event early December\n\nAlice\n\n\n \nFebruary party\n\nEmley\n\n\n \nAny other ideas?\n\n\n\n\n6\nEstate Issues\n15 mins\nEmley/Annette\n\n\n \nUpdates from steering group on new build planning\, pigeons\, courtyard\, new community centre plans etc\n\n\n\n\n \nCCTV update\n\n\n\n\n \nCladding certification\n\n\n\n\n \nAny other estate concerns?\n\n\n\n\n7\nAny other business?\n5-10 mins\n\n\n\n8\nDates of next meetings (5th December & TBC)\n\n\n\n\n8\nSocial time \n(Please bring your drink of choice.

Resident surnames removed for web version. \n\n\n\nThose Present:\nCllr. Brian Bell  (BB) (Chair) \nCllr Claire Potter (CP) \nEmley P (EP) \nPeter S (PS) \nThomas D \nHana C \nAlfred F \n \nPeter A (PA) \nNatalie C (NC) \nMichael N (MN) \nPeter D (PD) \nKarsten H (KH) \nJill WM (JWM) \nLate – Yannis V \n  \n \n\n\nIn Attendance:\nJohn Morris (JM) \nRon Greenwood (RG) \n \nSource Partnership (ITLA) \nLB Hackney \n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n1.0\nIntroductions and apologies \nAction\n\n\n  \n1.1\n  \nApologies were received from Jo G\, Nick J\, Ewan S Andrew M\, Bronwen T\, and Carol Squires (Source). \n \n \n\n\n2.0\nNotes of previous meeting held 9 July 2019 and any Matters Arising not elsewhere on the agenda\n \n\n\n  \n2.1\n  \nFrom 2.1 re Sainsbury’s vent. The noise report has been supplied. LBH Planning still chasing Sainsbury’s for a response. Objections have been received from some residents. \n \n \n\n\n  \n2.2\n  \nFrom 2.2 re ITLA re-procurement. Source were re-appointed and new contract started 20/8 for 2 years\, which can be extended if necessary.\n  \n \n\n\n  \n2.3\n  \nFrom 2.3 re Unit C. A successful bidder has been identified but contracts still not exchanged. Planning application for additional use will be determined by 27/9; no objections received so hopefully the decision can be delegated to officers. Once the lease is signed\, the space will be fitted out and in use by end October.  RG hopes that the successful bidder will be able to present to the RSG on 9/10. \n  \nBB asked about a temporary licence that has been granted for an activity. RG reported that Hackney Showroom have been given a licence to use Unit C for rehearsals from 9/9 to early October but knew it had to be available for the Big Lunch on 28/9. \n  \n \n \n\n\n3.0\nPhase 3 & 4 update\n \n\n\n  \n3.1\n  \nPlanning update \nA total of 27 objections have been received\, most from Wallington and Kimpton Courts and mostly concerning the scale of the proposed block opposite and the potential for ASB in the courtyards. RG confirmed the expectation that the application will be heard on 2nd October. \n \n \n\n\n  \n3.2\n  \nConstruction procurement \nLBH are currently preparing more detailed design information for tenderers to bid on and more time will be spent on evaluating their response. As a result\, the sign off of the tender documentation is delayed by approx a month.  However\, there will be scope to make up time if the negotiation period shrinks (period allowed for this has been quite generous). \n  \nLBH are going to carry out an exercise to photograph the current condition of all south side ground floor flat gardens; Karen Jelenje\, who is working with RG as a new Project Officer is co-ordinating this with Source to take place on 19th and 23rd Sept. \n  \nRG acknowledged that progress is slow but it is felt to be better to allow more time now to detail the specification of works so that competitive and as accurate as possible costings can be obtained from bidding contractors in a very uncertain market. \n  \nPS commented on the delays and that residents are asking him about progress.  RG added that detailed questions about site management\, dealing with noise\, dust\, parking\, respite facilities etc. are all being developed. These will be of particular interest to the 3 or 4 residents who form the procurement panel. \n  \nCP asked if the original start on site timing of Oct/Nov 2020 could be achieved if time is made up. RG suggested this might be possible but it is unknown how much time will be needed for contract negotiations which may delay the process. \n \n \n\n\n4.0\nPhase 1 & 2 update\n \n\n\n  \n4.1 \n \n  \nUse of vacant area south of Murrain Road \nRG circulated the T&Cs of use of the area by film crews. So far\, £14\,000 has been generated in fees for hiring out this space\, £3\,500 of which will be paid to the TRA and £3\,500 will be available for Unit C to go towards running the new community facility. \n  \nRG reported that 2 written complaints were received about noise early in the morning from generators used by the film crews\, so in the revised T&C’s\, it is stipulated that ultra silent generators must be used and catering vehicles cannot access the site until 6.00 a.m. However\, the later start has deterred some crews from using the site as they need to be up and running at 5.00 a.m. Consequently\, there are no lettings in September at the moment. RG put to the RSG the option of reverting to allowing a 5.00 start in order to capitalise on what is a lucrative source of income for residents of the estate. \n  \nPA was in favour of this if it could be guaranteed that noise would be kept to a minimum. NC is a resident in Kimpton Court and she gets up early and hasn’t noticed undue noise. JW-M commented that residents can do a lot with £3\,500. \n  \nCP asked if the portion of the funding that is earmarked for the new community facility has to be spent on anything specific. RG responded that it is just a condition that it has to be used towards running the facility. \n  \nPA asked if there is a market for this arrangement. RG – yes there is\, as long as crews can access and start work at 5.00 a.m. \n  \nThere was a consensus in the meeting that 5.00 starts should be permitted again. RG assured the meeting that the LBH Film Unit will keep track of activity and are very responsive to complaints and comments. \n \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n \n\n\n  \n4.2\n  \nDefects \nRG reported that there are a few items still outstanding to individual homes. The main item that is still causing concern in common parts is the algae on areas of the courtyards. There was an inspection last week with LBH Regen Team and the architects. LBH have asked for a report from the brick manufacturers but also an independent analysis\, to try to determine the cause. EP asked if cost of mitigating this will be a service charge item.  RG replied that it will not as long as it is a contractor’s liability. EP suggested roping off the affected areas\, PA jet washing them. RG noted that a long term solution is needed. LBH are changing the product for the phase 3 & 4 spec. and these bricks are being tested now throughout the winter months. \n  \nOther defect items include: \ni)      a tree needs replacing in the far west courtyard and this will be done later this year\, just before the end of defects period in December. PA also noted a tree that has been broken outside the Sainsbury’s on Green Lanes/end of Murrain Rd. \nii)     door closers are being replaced at Chipping\, Kimpton and Wallington. \niii)   KH reported that the fire/smoke vents are defective in Wallington. They were fixed at the end of July but the warning lights came on again. The issue is with the New Build Team but the problem hasn’t been permanently fixed yet. \niv)   EP raised the bike shed break ins. This was done by de-activating doors generally\, so there is a general sense of lack of security. KH commented that it cannot be right if buildings are ‘secured by design’ that doors can be de-activated [easily]. NC noted that LBH have told all residents that bikes need to be stored in the bike sheds\, not flats and so\, in her view\, LBH should take responsibility if they are saying where bikes can be stored and this area is not safe. RG will arrange for this issue to be taken up with Higgins as part of the defects monitoring meetings. Discussion with the New Build team will also take place. \n \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \nRG\n\n\n  \n4.3\n  \nOpen House\, 21st September \nKings Crescent will be part of the annual Open House weekend on 21st between 10.00 a.m. and 3.00 p.m. Any residents are welcome to join a tour or be around to chat to visitors. A letter is going out to residents next week. \n  \nAlso\, on 25th Sept\, the panel of judges for the Civic Trust Design Awards will be visiting and in another few weeks\, representatives from LB Haringey’s Regen Team are also visiting. RG thanked residents for their patience and in some cases\, hosting these and many other visits. \n \n \n\n\n5.0\nSource training for contractor procurement\n \n\n\n  \n5.1\n  \nJM reported that Source still intend to hold sessions on contractor procurement but that with the delays to the procurement process\, these are now likely to be October/November. These will be open to anyone but it is suggested that a small group actually take part in the contractor selection. Those who have put themselves forward are PA\, PD\, Ewan S and Jo G. \n \n \n\n\n6.0\nResidents Group update\n \n\n\n  \n6.1\n  \nEP gave feedback on progress and activities. \n  \ni)      On Thursday\, 5th Sept. a general meeting will vote on whether to become a TRA. EP noted that there are spaces still available to be on the committee\, so anyone interested is welcome. NC asked how everyone can hear about meetings\, activities etc. EP replied that the website (kingscrescent.org)\, facebook and e mails are kept updated with news. \nii)     On 28th Sept. the Res Group/ TRA is organising a Big Lunch. Food will be provided by people bringing a dish to share. It will be in and around Unit C\, so will have easy access to the play street. There have been discussions with LBH Resident Participation Team about taking Casbeard St out of commission to enable it to be vehicle-free for the period of the event between 12.30 and 3.00. JW-M suggested policing it ourselves and CP added that a play street she was involved in also used local residents to keep the street free of traffic for a few hours. RG added that Hackney Showroom are offering tables and chairs for the afternoon. \n  \n  \n  \n \n  \n  \n  \n  \n \n\n\n7.0\nAny urgent business\n\n\n\n  \n7.1\n  \nMN asked about details of the new scheme proposals.
