Councils in Barnet, Camden, Enfield, Hackney, Haringey, Islington and Waltham Forest are currently developing a plan to deal with North London’s waste up to 2020. When adopted, the plan will form part of this council’s Local Development Framework.
The North London Waste Plan will identify sites for the wide range of waste facilities needed to manage the waste produced in North London. The plan is in the early stages of preparation but your views about the key issues and policy options that have been identified are wanted.
Local people will get the chance to find out more about the plan, and give their views at this early stage through a series of workshops which will be held in January and February 2008 in each of the seven North London boroughs. Details of these are as follows:
24 January, Ocean, 270 Mare Street, Hackney E8, 6.30-8.30pm
11 February, Camden Centre, Bidborough Street, Kings Cross WC1, 6.30-8.30pm
(Note in this notice, we’ve only indicated the workshops in the Hackney and Camden – link to workshops in other boroughs)
In order to attend the workshop please register in advance by emailing events@nlwp.net or calling Archie Onslow on (020) 7974-5916.
The full issues and options report can be viewed at www.nlwp.net, the council’s planning office or one of the council’s libraries. At the same locations you can also see related reports on waste data, previous consultation, flooding risks, habitats, equalities and sustainability.
You can send feedback in a number of ways:
• Send general comments by email to feedback@nlwp.net or in writing to Archie Onslow at Camden Town Hall, Argyle Street, London WC1H 8EQ
• Send your reponses to the questions in the issues and options report by completing the questionnaire online at www.nlwp.net
• If you are a member of a community group that has a particular interest in the issues, we would be happy to attend one of your meetings to discuss the issues with you. Just email us at events@nlwp.net
All questionnaires and comments must be returned by 4 March 2008.
