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
