NEW AREA COMMITTEES ......first task. £35K Neighbourhood Renewal Funding.

You editor is informed that the Link Officer post with the Forum has been abolished. We are at present trying to find out details of the new Area Committee and meeting times.
The committee have allocated £35k of NRF. the BAF are getting a proposal together for consideration.

MILKWOOD ROAD GROG SPOT

Walk the length of this Road ( its about a mile) and you will realise the contrasting standards and conditions that apply in Herne Hil.
Walking from HH Junction to Lowden Road say a third of the distance there is a 90% damage to paving stones. There is the traditionl dumping near the flats above the Three Monkeys. The Junction Island at Lowden Road is a mond of cracked paving stones and this spotis crying out for care and attention.
The block of flats that was being building at 199 Milkwood Road was destroyed by Fire last year the site is now abondoned and all the signs relating to ther exciting new Housing Association development have been removed. The Street outside has again become a dump. I have approached Councillor Peter O'Connell to see if a regneration plan can be started.
The areas in front of the industrial estate say another 1/3rd/ mile are just one continuous dump. This observation stops at the MILKWOOD OPEN SPACE
which I am pleased to say is to be improved.

MILKWOOD OPEN SPACE

Following three years of struggle by the MILKWOOD ROAD RESIDENTS ( MRA) a plan has been devised and funding of £200k promised to bring life to this spot.
Efforts by Maude Eastwick, Hazel Watson and Jackie Plumbridge must be acknowledged tp name but three.
