Moving towards delivery 123 Strategic Environmental Assessment Interim Environment Report 131 Appendix 144 49365601 /05 49365601 /05 1. Executive Summary The City of Glasgow has a long tradition in the pursuit of a high quality built environment and public realm, continuing to the present day. This strategy represents the next steps in this tradition by setting out how open space should be planned, created, enhanced and managed in order to meet the priorities for Glasgow for the 21st century. This is not just an open space strategy. It is a cross‐cutting vision for delivering a high quality environment that supports economic vitality, improves the health of Glasgow’s residents, provides opportunities for low carbon movement, builds resilience to climate change, supports ecological networks and encourages community cohesion. This is because, when planned well, open space can provide multiple functions that deliver numerous social, economic and environmental benefits. Realising these benefits should be undertaken in a way that is tailored to the needs of the City. As such, this strategy examines the priorities Glasgow has set out and identifies six cross‐cutting strategic priority themes for how open space can contribute to meeting them.

Glasgow City Council Housing Development Committee Report by Director of Development and Regeneration Services Contact: Jennifer Sheddan Ext: 78449 Operation of the Homestake Scheme in Glasgow Purpose of Report: The purpose of this report is to seek approval for priority groups for housing developments through the new Homestake scheme, and for other aspects of operation of the scheme. Recommendations: Committee is requested to: - (a) approve the priority groups for housing developments through the new Homestake scheme; (b) approve that in general, the Council’s attitude to whether the RSL should take a ‘golden share’ in Homestake properties is flexible, with the exception of Homestake development in ‘hotspot’ areas where the Housing Association, in most circumstances, will retain a ‘golden share’; (c) approve that applications for Homestake properties should normally be open to all eligible households, with preference given to existing RSL tenants to free up other existing affordable housing options; (d) approve that net capital receipts to RSLs through the sale of Homestake properties will be returned to the Council as grant provider to be recycled in further affordable housing developments.

Our Local Plan at GHA for the Next Five Years
Glasgow Housing Association Investing In Our Futures www.gha.org.uk Our local plan at GHA for the next five years Mosspark, Craigton, Bellahouston, Cardonald, Corkerhill, Central Pollok, Househillwood, Old Pollok and North Pollok GHA’s new five-year strategy, ‘Investing In Our Futures’, has been shaped by listening to feedback from our tenants about what is important to them. This leaflet tells you what this means for you and your local area between now and 2020. It sets out what local people told us their priorities were and what we plan to do in your community over the next five years. This leaflet covers the communities of Mosspark, Craigton, Bellahouston, Cardonald, Corkerhill, Central Pollok, Househillwood, Old Pollok and North Pollok. What you told us In developing the local plan we engaged with tenants on their priorities during our customer conversations, talked to people at community events and met with local groups. Better homes, better lives We heard feedback on the need to continue to invest in our homes and communities, particularly for tenants who have not had external improvements due to sharing blocks with owners and those that had been invested in pre-GHA. There was a strong feeling additional environmental improvements were needed for a number of communities, including fencing and open spaces. Some customers told us about the need for more homes of the right sizes within their area as some families were outgrowing their homes and were leaving the community. Other priorities included improving the repairs and maintenance service, tackling condensation and helping to address fuel poverty by installing more cost-efficient heating systems in some property types.
