It sets out updated air quality monitoring data and assesses whether any new or proposed developments are likely to have a significant effect on air quality concentrations. Furthermore, this report fulfils the requirements of the Local Air Quality Management process as set out in Part IV of the Environment Act (1995), the Air Quality Strategy for England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland 2007 and the relevant Policy and Technical Guidance documents. The LAQM process places an obligation on all local authorities to regularly review and assess air quality in their areas, and to determine whether or not the air quality objectives are likely to be achieved. Where exceedences are considered likely, the local authority must then declare an Air Quality Management Area (AQMA) and prepare an Air Quality Action Plan (AQAP) setting out the measures it intends to put in place in pursuit of the objectives. Air Quality Monitoring Data Across Hertfordshire, where monitoring is undertaken, the concentrations of Nitrogen Dioxide (NO2) have been declining, which means air quality has been improving.

    WATFORD BOROUGH COUNCIL COUNCIL TAX FOR 2020/21 What you pay and what we provide For more information about council tax and ways to pay, visit www.watford.gov.uk/counciltax watford.gov.uk/counciltax watfordcouncil CT2020-21_FINAL.indd 1 28/02/2020 15:40 A message from Elected Mayor of Watford, Peter Taylor This is a really exciting year for our town. This year, we passed a budget that: l Delivers better transport for Watford l Supports vulnerable people l Invests in our parks, leisure centres and community events It is no secret that this is a challenging time for local councils. We have seen a £4m a year reduction in our funding from central government. Despite this, we have been able to keep council tax increases down and continue to deliver good quality services for our town. In spring, we will be launching a new bike hire scheme and a new on demand bus service, ArrivaClick. Many residents speak to me about congestion in the town and how difficult it can be to get around Watford. That’s why it is important that we are investing in schemes that will help tackle congestion, make Watford greener and make our air cleaner. No one should have to sleep rough and that’s why we working with others to do even more to tackle homelessness. This year we have secured nearly half a million pounds in additional support for people sleeping rough as well as building new council houses for local families. People deserve a permanent roof over their heads.
