The bulk of ward projects had been completed, including the 5 No. Note Question /Action Point parking restrictions in Harewood Terrace and highways work in Havelock Road. James Morton reported that the improvements to the Norwood Road / Manston Avenue footpath had been delayed because of work to the adjoining properties. However, the job was snow in hand, and was costing £2,000 less than the budgeted figure. Councillor Mann noted that this saving would be carried forward to the 2013/14 budget. A confirmed site for the litter bin in Tentelow Lane / Poplar Avenue was required from the Norwood Green Residents Association.

Councillor Mann worked through the projects listed to date: Khalsa Primary School – contribution to road safety scheme DF confirmed this comprised a pedestrian crossing and other safety features, and had been designed by his colleagues in the council’s Transport department, taking into account the concerns of parents, who had attended the ward forum previously. The scheme was likely to cost £30,000 and the meeting suggested a contribution of £5,000 Park Avenue CCTV scheme Residents and councillors felt this to be an important project for the ward, given the success of the camera in Park Avenue. The area around the alley leading under the railway line to the Armstrong Way industrial estate was felt to be the priority location for a camera. DF explained that costings were awaited. Southall Manor House Grounds – improvements This joint scheme involving local schoolchildren, with Southall Green ward also providing £3,500, was supported. Uxbridge Road – hanging baskets Councillor Mann felt this was a worthwhile project, given the support for the previous planting in the Uxbridge Road central reservation. The area around the bus stop and the alley leading from Argyll Avenue was identified. Hanwell Meadows – litter bins 7 No. Note Question /Action Point James Morton reminded residents that this project was planned for last year, but had been taken off the budget following concerns about the cost of bins designed to receive dog waste. This matter had now been resolved. Norwood Green – public exercise machines Residents agreed that these machines were popular in other Southall Parks. Could an outdoor table tennis table be added? James Morton and DF offered to see if a table could also be afforded. Community Grants: Southall Micro Fund DF explained that the council’s Leader and Deputy Leader had asked that all Southall wards consider a £6,000 contribution to this fund, which was designed to provide small grants to local community projects. The Leader had established this fund last year, and now asked if the wards could now take the project forward.

  • THE CHARACTER of the LANDSCAPE 2.39 the Thames
    THE CHARACTER OF THE LANDSCAPE 2.39 The Thames enters the Greater London Area at Hampton. From Hampton to Erith, the river fl ows through the metropolis; an urban area even though much of the riverside is verdant open space, particularly in the fi rst stretch between Hampton and Kew. 2.40 The character of the river is wonderfully varied and this chapter concentrates on understanding how that variety works. We have deliberately avoided detailed uniform design guidelines, such as standard building setbacks from the water’s edge. At this level, such guidelines would tend to stifl e rather than encourage the variety in character. Instead we have tried to highlight the main factors which determine the landscape character and propose recommendations to conserve and enhance it. 2.41 Landscape Character Guidance LC 1: New development and new initiatives within the Strategy area should be judged against the paramount aim of conserving and enhancing the unique character of the Thames Landscape as defi ned in the Strategy. The River 2.42 Although, being a physical boundary, the river is often on the periphery of county and local authority jurisdictions, it is essentially the centre of the landscape. The Thames has carved the terraces and banks that line its course, the valley sides drain down to its edges and the water acts as the main visual and physical focus. It is a dynamic force, constantly changing with the tide and refl ecting the wind and the weather on its surface. 2.43 Downstream of the great expanse of water at the confl uence with the Wey, the Thames fl ows from west to east – the Desborough Cut by-passing the large meander near Shepperton.
