SUMMARY:Police Ward Panel Meeting
DESCRIPTION:The local police are holding a public meeting regarding community policing in Brownswood Ward.\n\nWhat is a Police Ward Panel Meeting?\n\nWard Panels are an instrumental part of local police engagement in London “As Met Police Safer Neighbourhood (SN) teams engage with communities\, through various methods such as meetings or contact sessions\, the teams will gain an insight into the local community’s crime and disorder concerns. In order to ensure that the work of each police team is focused on resolving these problems\, each police team will require a process to involve local people to decide promises for them to work on.\n\n\nThe Ward Panel will decide the promises for the area by examining the results of community feedback and research by police and partners such as Hackney Council and local housing management offices. This will include taking account of results from crime data\, public events and meetings where the community have voiced concerns. In addition to promise setting the panel is also fully involved in deciding what type of action should be taken on their concerns and have an input to the problem solving approach.

SUMMARY:Consultation event for young people
DESCRIPTION:We have another opportunity for young people to get involved in the development of the estate. The architects involved with the landscape planning have been asked by Hackney Council to take some photographs of the play street and the completed courtyards. They are inviting young residents to attend and voice any opinions they have about the existing play areas and landscape and offer opinions towards the next phase. They will provide some refreshments and can offer printed copies of the images for the young people to keep. \nMeet outside the vacant commercial unit on the play street at 4.30pm.

Date of next meeting \n  \nMinutes: \n\n\n\nIn Attendance:\nCllr Brian Bell (BB) (Chair) \n7 residents \nRon Greenwood (RG) \nBronwen Thomas (BT) \nCarol Squires  (CS) \nJohn Morris (JM) \nMenekse Sayitoglu (MS) \nLiza Fior (LF)\n  \n  \n  \nLB Hackney \nLB Hackney \nSource Partnership (ITLA) \nSource Partnership (ITLA) \nSource Partnership (ITLA) \nMUF Landscape Architects \n \n\n\n \n \n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n1.0\nIntroductions and apologies \nAction\n\n\n \nApologies were received from: Cllr Clare Potter\, Karsten Hartmann\, Emma Crouch \n \n \n\n\n2.0 \nNotes of previous meeting and matters arising\n \n\n\n2.1\nThe notes were agreed as accurate.\n \n\n\n2.2\nMatters arising: \n4.1 in previous minutes. BB reinforced the post meeting note that was made regarding the leaseholder recharge cap. He emphasised that the negotiated cap that has been in place since 2011 should apply to the whole development.  RG added that a paper has gone to senior officers before being issued to the Mayor on the financial implications of this. \n  \nA matter arising from previous Partnership meetings is to note that new CCTV is being installed in Weston Court. \n \n  \n  \n  \n \n\n\n3.0\nUpdate on phases 3 & 4 \n \n\n\n3.1\nGeneral update (RG). \ni)                    Work with LBH Highways Dept and on estate traffic\, parking etc. \n  \nFurther discussions on parking will take place in September. RG confirmed that any resident who currently has an estate parking permit will still be able to use it after the development is completed.  There are 47 parking spaces on the south side\, 25 on north. Of the 47\, 6 spaces will be for blue badge holders\, spread evenly around the estate.  In addition there will be 2 car club spaces. LBH policy also means that 20% of the spaces will provide for electric vehicles. \n  \nOther issues being worked on include: cycle stores across the estate\, how deliveries can be accommodated and how vehicles move in and out of the estate\, how refuse is collected. In particular\, further discussion with Highways is needed on reconciling need for a delivery bay outside the Green Lanes commercial units (A & B) and the plans for a cycle lane along Green Lanes. \n  \nBB felt that the electric vehicle provision was high; RG emphasised that this was policy and part of the ‘future proofing’ of the development. \n  \nPA asked why blue badge holders get so many dedicated parking spaces when they can already park anywhere (including on double yellow lines for a fixed period). RG replied that this in compliance with LBH and GLA policy and also responds to a number of residents at consultation events who complained that they cannot park close to home even with a disabled badge.  PA raised the issue of blue badges being displayed by drivers who should not have them. BB assured him that the council’s Audit Committee regularly receive details of action against blue badge fraud including prosecutions and revocations. He should report any such suspected cases. \n  \nii) Design Team update  \n  \nArchitects are working on Stage 2 designs – internal layouts and refurb details being refined. There will be a delay while the financial impact of these are being considered by LBH. Stage 3 follows – preparation of the planning application. \n  \nii)                  Programme  \n  \nNext week’s consultation on Wednesday 3RD Oct concentrates on pubic realm proposals. Then November’s consultation will focus on refurbishment proposals. Final pre-planning exhibition is now scheduled for before Christmas with planning submission Jan 2019. SH asked when\, on this schedule\, work would start. RG – possibly around Feb 2020\, though this will be dependent on a successful planning application which will allow for contractor procurement etc. to take place over summer 2019. \n \n \n\n\n3.2\nPublic realm proposals presentation from Liza Fior (MUF)  \nLF gave a presentation that demonstrated the current proposals for the public realm in phases 3 and 4. The following comments/questions were made/asked: \n·         DS thought there would be more of a sense of ownership created by the option of building walls on the Queens Drive corners. \n·         With regard to the garden plots\, LF wants to talk further to existing gardeners to fine tune the proposals. MS expressed a preference for plots in the central area; they would be safer\, over looked. BB commented that these would have to be very well managed to avoid this area becoming an eyesore. It was noted that John Lonergan in the New Build Team is responsible for the current plots. At the moment\, 2 growing seasons are guaranteed for plot holders. If plots are not used\, they will be re-allocated to someone on the waiting list. LF pointed out that the garden areas will be the last element of the development to be completed\, so there is time to determine demand. \n·         PA asked why there wasn’t more ‘defensive planting’ instead of bare walls. LF gave an example of St Marks Church in Dalston where play equipment fencing has been covered in greenery. She added that paler bricks can work well and can deter graffiti.  SH would welcome more green to offset brickwork. \n·         As part of architect’s Stage 3 work\, the question of how to address the security of the central area is being discussed. Further details of proposals can be viewed and discussed at the consultation event on Wednesday afternoon\, 3/10\, 4.00 to 8.00 in the community centre. \n·\n \n\n\n4.0\nUpdate on Northside play street and traffic calming \nBT reported that additional signage and bollards are on order\, should be in place by end of October. LBH sign makers are doing the No Entry signs. Materials still being decided for the barriers. With regard to scooters using pavements\, the police and the ASB team need people to report instances straight away and\, if possible\, with reg. numbers. BB repeated the lesson\, not to build a play street that looked like a road! \n \n \n\n\n5.0\nSocial and community initiatives \n \n\n\n5.1\nKings Crescent Story \nRanait (Source intern) has been working on this over the last few weeks. She has gathered lots of information that will be collated and ready by the time of the next RSG. A final decision can be made on how this is all presented (Book? Film? Other medium?) early 2019 in time for the planning application. \n \n  \n \n\n\n5.2\nCommunity Facilities  \nRG reported that a tender is currently out for social enterprises and community centre managers to express interest in running Unit C as a space for community activities for the KC estate and their own business. A 5 year lease is on offer in order to properly pilot an approach that could be adopted for the permanent centre.  End of October is deadline for expressions of interest.  DS asked when the facility might be available. RG replied that part of the tender is for businesses to propose a timescale for opening for activities. What will happen to this building (the current community centre)? If Unit C is up and running there could be a temporary use agreed while it is still here; could be another 1 to 1.5 years.  EP asked if residents will get a say; RG agreed that residents should certainly be involved in decisions around the use and management of the permanent centre. \n \n  \n  \n \n\n\n5.3\nStudy visit to Bourne Estate \nA visit to the Bourne Estate in Clerkenwell is proposed for Sat. 3rd November. A different architect was involved but Higgins were the building contractors. Also\, we hope to visit the community space there. \n  \nThe other commercial units were discussed: \n·         BB asked for the sign saying ‘Unit B\, Clissold Quarter’ to be changed. BT to contact the lessees or LBH commercial lettings. \n·         Both Units A and D should be open and trading by early 2019. \n  \nPA asked about the current position on the proposed loading bay for Sainsbury’s. BT replied that LBH Highways now don’t want a bay so deliveries will have to unload on Green Lanes. Generally\, loading bays are discouraged. \n \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \nBT\n\n\n5.4\nSocial events  \nSource’s two events in August attracted 47 different people. This proved to be a good way for residents to become more familiar with the phase 3&4 proposals in a more informal environment. \n \n  \n  \n \n\n\n6.0\nSupported Residents Group\n \n\n\n6.1\nWebsite and feedback from SRG meeting 13th Sept \nThe website designed by DS and with content written and collated by EP\, was launched at the event. It has been welcomed and recognised as well designed and a valuable source of information and\, in the future\, interaction between residents. \nJM fed back on the meeting that was planned to be an AGM; a decision on a Chair and committee was postponed as no one at the meeting was prepared to immediately take on any of the positions. \n \n \n\n\n7.0\nAny urgent business \n \n \n\n\n7.1\nPS asked about the phasing of the south side works. RG responded that the exact phasing and timings will emerge from discussions with the successful contractor. The contractor will be invited to RSG to discuss this and there will be a resident rep participating in the contractor selection. BB pointed out that it will be around a year and a half before these decisions will be made. \n \n  \nBB\n\n\n7.2\nAF reported that a lift in Weston Court was out of action – details to be taken after the meeting. \n \n \n\n\n7.3\nPA asked if a green wall could be created on the end of Weston Court. LF will take this back to the landscape design team; it’s a v. expensive option but there is a successful example in Homerton.\nLF\n\n\n8.0\nDates of next meetings \n  \n24th Oct\, 7.00 pm \n28th Nov\, 7.00 pm \n \n \n\n\n\n  \nThe Meeting closed at 8.25 pm

SUMMARY:September Residents Group Meeting
DESCRIPTION:Agenda:\n\nAnnual General meeting\nKings Crescent Website\nResident Campaigns\nSocial Activities / Funding / Grants\n\nMinutes:\nMeeting Summary:\nThis meeting had a great turnout with over 20 residents in attendance along with Cllr Clare Potter – Brownswood Ward Councillor and Hackney Speaker\, John Morris – Source Partnership\, and Oliur Rahman – Hackney housing Resident Participation Manager. \n  \nWhat the group is\nOliur explained the purpose of the group is to raise issues/concerns/problems\, with a member of the housing team here to support us. The meeting is for us as a community with support in how to solve issues. It has been running for a year. \n  \nAGM\nThe plan was to hold an ‘Annual General Meeting’ today to elect a new chair and leadership committee. The aim of the committee is to hold smaller meetings between the main residents’ meetings to work on issues\, run campaigns\, lobby council etc. Roy is stepping down as chair to allow others to fill role. Oliur and residents agreed that Roy has done a great job and built momentum in getting the group to where it is now. There was a concern that since this meeting was many resident’s first time\, it may be a bit to soon to expect to elect a new committee. Oliur proposed that he would be willing to chair the meetings in the interim until the group is ready to form a committee and elect a chair. This was agreed to by the residents in attendance. \n(Correction: 30/11/18 – After writing these minutes I spoke to Roy and he said that he was not intending to step down from the committee. He was happy to remain as chair if needed\, but was open to another resident taking the helm if there was someone willing to take it on. Either way he would like to remain on the committee. EP) \nEstate Initiatives\nOliur introduced the idea of projects for the estate on behalf of the council. \n\nWheely Tots: Hackney have tried Wheely Tots at events in the past. David Pitcher attended the meeting to introduce Wheely Tots and the plan to host children’s bike events on Kings Crescent. Wheely Tots will be running cycling sessions for 2 to 4-year olds on Wednesday mornings from next week\, 9.30-11.30am. This will be a 6-week trial to see how popular it is. They will bring lots of balance bikes for children to try. The sessions are free but donations welcome. Look out for leaflets or see their website http://wheelytots.com/about/ The team can also run sessions for older children and families providing advice on bike mechanics and cycling for all age children and adults. Can look to do after school and/or weekend sessions at a later date if there is a desire for it. To get in touch with Wheely Tots with questions or suggestions email info@wheelytots.com\nZumba and yoga should be starting in October. We will be notified. Again\, this will be a trial basis for 6 weeks to see how popular it is. It will be council funded and held in the community centre.\n\n  \nIssues to raise\n\nNeed more space for secure\, indoor bike provision. Oliur said there could be an option for close lids bike shelters but would be a service charge. Roy had experience with ones on street: anyone can use\, about £30 per year\, get a key to use it. Secure to padlock it inside. Is bolted to the floor. Could speak to regeneration colleagues to see how it fits in.\nNo parking available on the estate now\, this is an issue for the older residents who rely on carers or family bringing shopping etc. Hackney wide initiative trying to reduce cars in the borough. Cllr Potter mentioned there has been abuse of visitor parking\, change of policy to try to try to manage it. All new builds are now car free\, but it is having a knock-on effect on the existing residents. Parking will get worse during next build phase. Can still get visitor vouchers for side streets/Queens Drive. Cllr Potter mentioned that Hackney are trying to manage the situation fairly\, but she will take those concerns back to Hackney.\n\n  \nFeedback from last meeting (Oliur):\n\nConcerns about changes and increases to service charges. Final bill coming in October\, for some this will be the first service charge bill. Council will hold some surgeries to discuss this with individuals. The original estimates were based on 2014/15 actuals when road and estate cleaning was separate but now together\, big change.\nCleaning – asked new build teams to see how can be reduced. One option team suggests is to have allocated cleaners. Currently new blocks have 4 full time posts equivalent cleaners but suggestion to reduce to 3 posts. Reactive cleaning won’t take place straight away – just on the scheduled days that week. Unless it’s a health and safety issue\, then still within 24hrs. Letter will come out about this. Pay attention from 1st oct to see if happy with the change. Not sure how often the scheduled cleaning is.\nPigeon issue on the estate. Has been a few issues on what can be done\, lots of discussion on this. Consultation and different options will go out to all the estate. Look out for that. It did stop for a while\, but now lots of people have moved in and some people feed them!!! Suggested to put warning in the next newsletter. Apparently\, it is on the lease that residents are not supposed to feed them.\nTraffic calming issues – will be more coming in October\, painting to the play street. Need more humps\, bollards etc. Lots of motorbikes still going through the play area. Bells barriers planned. Children event did some plans. Change the colour will change the perception. Will be more markings and yellow lines taken off.\n\n  \nFunding/grants\nAll estates have a community development fund they can use. This summer residents used some of this to fund trip to Broadstairs. This was advertised at the community event. Was some miscommunication about how it was paid for. Council paid for it\, not from service charge. Patricia commented that they had a wonderful time! A few of the older residents who have been living on the estate for 50 years mentioned they used to go to seaside a lot! \nThere is still some money left in the pot (£800-£1000 available) Suggestion to do something in winter. Oliur is compiling email list to inform residents. Ideas…Christmas party\, trip to see a pantomime\, party to combat winter blues at end Jan when it’s miserable\, winter BBQ with\, gazebos\, mulled wine etc. Bring something to contribute to a party makes it nicer. \n  \nSocial Events\nNext coffee afternoon 2-4pm 27 Sept \nHope to have more regular events again\, the older residents commented that it would be good to do more like they used to have in the previous hall. \n  \nCommittee\nIdeally need 4-5 people to get things moving in between the main meetings (can use hall for free for meetings if needed). Lots of new faces today so all decided it is best not to rush into forming an official committee now. Oliur is happy to keep chairing for now. He can have separate conversations with anyone interested in getting involved. \nJohn asked if anyone would be interested in forming an interim group to get things going. Only Emley and David put up their hands to offer to be involved\, but others later said they could help too. \n  \nNew Website\nDavid S and Emley P have built a new website to help keep residents informed and encourage community\, see: kingscrescent.org \nOliur mentioned there is also another website potential on the Hackney site. \n  \nAny other issues\nYounger residents would like a youth group. David from Wheely Tots mentioned there is lots of finding available for this if it is something to do with bikes! He is happy to help with this. Ideas- can separate the age groups\, education based\, 12+ study prep or hangout with other young residents. Oliur suggested contacting him about ideas and what kids want. \n  \nRound of applause at the end for Roy in expression of everyone’s gratitude for his work for the resident’s group so far \n  \nIf you want something on the agenda for the next meeting\, want to get involved\, or have ideas fr anything contact Oliur: oliur.rahman2@hackney.gov.uk

SUMMARY:July steering group meeting
DESCRIPTION:Notes of Kings Crescent Steering Group Meeting held on 24th July 2018 in the Community Centre \n  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nIn Attendance:\n12 residents \nCllr Brian Bell (BB) (Chair) \nRon Greenwood (RG) \nBronwen Thomas (BT) \nCarol Squires  (CS) \nJohn Morris \nMenekse Sayitoglu\n  \n  \n  \nLB Hackney \nLB Hackney \nSource Partnership (ITLA) \nSource Partnership (ITLA) \nSource Partnership (ITLA) \n \n\n\n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n1.0\nIntroductions and apologies \nAction\n\n\n \nApologies were received from: Cllr Clare Potter. \n \n \n\n\n2.0 \nNotes of previous meeting and matters arising\n \n\n\n2.1\nThe notes were agreed as accurate.\n \n\n\n2.2\nMatters arising: \n3.1 in previous minutes. BT reported that Higgins now off site but will return in September to start end of first year defects checks. Marketing suite (Unit B) handing back next week. \n  \n3.3 in previous minutes: commercial lettings. RG reported that Unit D (opp Costcutters) progressing; looking hopeful for letting as a barbers. Sainsburys targeting 1/11/18 opening in Unit A. Unit B lease being finalised with Hourglass (indy coffee shop). Senior management team in LBH looking this week to make a decision on commercial letting vs community use for Unit C. \n \n  \n  \n  \n \n\n\n3.0\nUpdate on Northside play street and traffic calming \n \n\n\n3.1\nBT reported that speed humps will be created in the next 2 weeks.  New boulders/bollards are being procured and should be fitted in the next 3 months; target date\, end of October. New signage should also be in place by the Autumn. EC asked how many No Entry signs there will be; 4 in total one on each side of the road at each end of Murrain Rd. BT added that this should also make it easier to challenge drivers who drive onto the street. BB urged officers to progress this as quickly as possible.\n \n\n\n4.0\nUpdate on phases 3 & 4\n \n\n\n4.1\nInitial feedback from design exhibition 23 July \n  \nRG reported that 84 people signed in; 48 from existing blocks\, 31 from the new blocks and 5 from off the estate. On a small sample of the feedback forms\, initial comments were varied between positive and negative on the new massing and height proposals\, similarly mixed on the central square and there was a general welcome to the way the design has developed and that feedback from previous consultation has been taken on board. \n  \nKH indicated that there were still concerns. A resident did their own daylight study and suggested moving the 11 storey block further south to increase the amount of sunlight cast on Murrain Rd and the front elevations of the blocks facing it. This wasn’t exhibited in the new proposals. Further opposition to the current scheme is being organised. \n  \nEC asked why the illustrated options were restricted to just the outline planning scheme and the current version; no other options seem to have been considered. She also noted that it is difficult to interpret the drawings; could the proposals be presented as a video? RG stated that every resident was given the opportunity to have an accompanied tour of the exhibition and therefore for the daylight/sunlight exhibition board to be explained. \n  \nRG stated that many others have fed into these design proposals\, including the planning team\, a Design Review Panel and Client Design Panel. \n  \nJG welcomed the proposals for the refurbishment of the existing blocks but asked about likely leaseholder contributions. RG replied that costs are still being evaluated and a final decision on the extent of cost recovery will be made by the Mayor and Cabinet with a possible decision being made in approx. 9 months time. EP stated that everyone has been led to believe that there will be a cap of £10\,000 on leaseholder contributions that will benefit the southside owners. PA endorsed the assumption that the cap promise applies to the whole scheme\, not just phases 1 & 2. BB stated that a different financial assessment will be made for phases 3 & 4\, so the cap will not necessarily apply (NB – post meeting note: BB confirmed by e mail that in fact he does believe the negotiated cap applies to the whole development). \n \nThe \n\n\n4.2\nFeedback from young people’s consultation \n  \nMUF organised this event early July to talk to young people about design ideas for the public realm. Mostly attended by pre-teens. It was noted there was a serious lack of feedback from teenagers and young people. Feedback from younger kids and parents generally positive. MUF’s analysis of the consultation is awaited. \n \n \n\n\n5.0\nSocial and community initiatives \n \n\n\n5.1\nKings Crescent Story \n  \nBT is working with Source intern to talk to people over the summer. Interest is gradually increasing\, e.g. someone had photos of the demolitions of the tower blocks.\n  \n \n\n\n5.2\nCommunity Facilities  \nSource are currently drafting a report for RG to demonstrate possible usage of Unit C as a community facility. This will support the case internally in LBH for the space being used for community activities and it will also inform discussions progressing with a possible tenant. \n \n  \n  \nSource\n\n\n5.3\nStudy visits \nBT looking at another visit to look at high density new build as well as new community facilities. Bourne Estate in Clerkenwell a possible venue for a visit after the summer holiday period. \n \nSource/LBH\n\n\n5.4\nSocial events  \nSource summer social next Thursday\, 2nd August\, 5.00 to 8.30. This will give residents a further opportunity to look at and discuss the presentation boards. \n \n  \n  \nSource\n\n\n6.0\nSupported Residents Group\n \n\n\n6.1\nWebsite \nDS is designing a website with two areas; one for interaction/chat\, the other for information. DS has asked for assistance with the text for the second section. Target to be ready by the SRG AGM in September. \n \n \n\n\n6.2\nFuture meetings \nAGM 13/9/18. Following the election of officers\, there will be more frequent committee meetings. The next open meeting after the AGM will be in December. \n \n \n\n\n7.0\nAny urgent business \n \n \n\n\n7.1\nPS reported that the lift in Theobalds Court has been out of order now for 6 weeks. BB promised to chase the repair. \n \n  \nBB\n\n\n7.2\nRG asked if residents would want another exhibition for the landscape and refurb proposals in September\, followed by the final exhibition for the new build proposals in October. This was the preference. \n \n \n\n\n7.3\nFollowing questions about the feedback from Monday’s exhibition\, RG agreed to have the analysis collated by 10th August for circulation. \n \n \n\n\n8.0\nDates of next meetings \n  \n26th Sept\, 7.00 pm\, \n24th Oct\, 7.00 pm \n28th Nov\, 7.00 pm \n \n \n\n\n\n  \nThe Meeting closed at 7.55 pm
