  • 1 APPENDIX a HARROW OPEN SPACE STRATEGY Introduction
    APPENDIX A HARROW OPEN SPACE STRATEGY Introduction Good quality green spaces are an essential component of the urban fabric of Harrow and make a profound contribution to the quality of life of local communities. They offer a wide range of economic, social, environmental and health benefits. Adopting a strategic approach to the management of open spaces will maximise the value of capital investment and revenue expenditure. Open space in this strategy is a generic term covering a wide spectrum of different types of spaces – from parks to small grassed areas in housing estates, play areas, woodlands and natural areas and allotments – that are available for communities to use and enjoy. Approximately a quarter of all land in the borough comprises public or private green space. Harrow’s green corridors are a key element of the emerging Green Grid which was st approved by Cabinet on 21 July 2011. This aims to create a network of interlinked multi- purpose open spaces with good connections to the areas where people live and work, public transport, the green belt and the Thames. Why do we need an Open Space Strategy? An Open Space Strategy has to fulfil a number of needs. These include: • demonstrating the value of open space in achieving corporate, strategic and community objectives; • reinforcing local identity and civic pride; • addressing any deficiencies in the quality of existing provision so that open spaces enhance the quality of life of local communities and the environment; • achieving standards of maintenance that reflect the expectations

  • Harrow Council on the Proposed Warding Arrangements As Part of the Current Phase of Your Electoral Review of the Borough
    Legal & Governance Services Director – Hugh Peart Andrew Scallan Lead Commissioner The Local Government Boundary Commission For England 14th Floor Millbank Tower Millbank London SW1P 4QP 8 October 2018 Dear Mr Scallan, Electoral Review of London Borough of Harrow Please find enclosed the submission from Harrow Council on the proposed warding arrangements as part of the current phase of your electoral review of the Borough. It consists of a narrative report, a Borough map with our proposed ward boundaries and a spreadsheet which includes the electorate forecast figures for each proposed ward. This submission was approved at a meeting of the Council’s Licensing and General Purposes Committee held on 4 October 2018; the Committee has delegated authority to determine matters related to electoral arrangements in the Borough. As required by the procedures established by the Commission, the submission is based on the Council size of 55 councillors, the figure the Commission agreed it was “minded to” recommend. However, at the meeting, certain Members expressed their concerns at the proposed reduction in the number of councillors and, in particular, its implications for the democratic representation of local residents in the future. The Committee resolved to request the Commission to reconsider its view on the appropriate Council size and agree to retain the current number of 63 councillors for Harrow Borough. Should you require any further information or clarification, please do not hesitate to contact me. Yours sincerely, Elaine McEachron Democratic Electoral & Registration Services Manager Tel: Email: address Democratic Services, Harrow Council, Civic Centre PO Box 2, Station Road, Harrow, HA1 2UH web fax www.harrow.gov.uk 020 8424 1557 Local Government Boundary Commission for England Warding Pattern Submission for Harrow October 2018 2 Contents Introduction ........................................................................................................................
