The purpose of the Legacy Corporation is “To promote and deliver physical, social, economic and environmental regeneration of the Olympic Park and its surrounding area, in particular by maximising the legacy of the 2012 Olympic and Paralympic Games, by securing high-quality sustainable development and investment, ensuring the long-term success of the facilities and assets within its direct control and supporting and promoting the aim of convergence”. As the Local Planning Authority for its area, the Legacy Corporation is required to prepare a Local Plan. The Local Plan sets out the Legacy Corporations strategy for the sustainable development of its area as a whole, including the general amount, type and location of new development it considers could take place and the policies that applications for planning permission should conform to in order to meet these objectives. This is a non-statutory stage of consultation on the draft Local Plan with this document setting out the form that the Legacy Corporation considers that the Plan should take and provides an opportunity for views to be expressed on the direction of the vision, objectives, policies and proposals before it is finalised for its ’Publication Stage’. Comments made at this stage will be taken into account as the plan is finalised for its ‘Publication Stage’. This final version of the Local Plan will then be subject to its ‘Publication Stage’ consultation after which it will then be subject to an Examination into its soundness, held by an independent planning inspector. This non-statutory stage of public consultation starts on [date] and ends on [date]. A consultation response form is available with this document to help you respond. Consultation responses should be sent to the following postal or email address no later than the end date of the consultation. Postal address: Local Plan Consultation Planning Policy & Decisions Team London Legacy Development Corporation Level 10, 1 Stratford Place, Montfichet Road, London. E20 1EJ Email address: [email protected] Telephone: 0203 288 1800 The draft Local Plan and related material can be viewed on the Legacy Corporation website at http://www.londonlegacy.co.uk/ Paper copies of the consultation documents are available on request and can also be viewed at the Legacy Corporation office reception at the above address. London Legacy Development Corporation Local Plan Interim Consultation Document/draft/vs0.1 PROTECT - POLICY 3 1. Spatial Portrait of the Legacy Corporation Area The regional context – the strategic role of the Legacy Corporation Area within London 1.1. The Legacy Corporation area is located within east London, approximately 4 miles from the Central Activities Zone. It lies at a key strategic location with proposed connections to Europe via the Eurostar from Stratford International Station and Crossrail which will provide fast links across London and beyond once completed. 1.2. The Legacy Corporation area also sits at the meeting point of the London-Stansted- Cambridge-Peterborough growth corridor and the Thames Gateway Growth Corridor. Within London, the area is directly connected to the major business and growth hubs of Central London, Canary Wharf and the Royal Docks. 1.3. Identified by the Mayor as one of London’s key future growth points, probably the most important for the next twenty five years, particularly within Policy 2.4 of the London Plan (The 2012 Games and their Legacy), the area in combination with much of its immediate surroundings, provides a significant land resource for meeting part of the need for housing and employment that will be generated by the projected growth of London within the Plan period. Falling also within the Lower Lea Valley Opportunity Area, the strategy for growth of the area within this Plan is therefore designed to meet the local need of those living within the area but also to develop a series of places that are part of their surroundings and provide opportunities for housing, employment, business and leisure for those living in the surrounding communities and more widely in the Growth Boroughs, while also providing a London-wide strategic resource within the context of the overall growth of London. London Legacy Development Corporation Local Plan Interim Consultation Document/draft/vs0.1 PROTECT - POLICY 4 Figure 1.1 Key Diagram 1.4. The potential of the area to provide for identified needs goes beyond the development of land; the social, economic and environmental characteristics of the area mean that the Legacy Corporation’s role is also to deliver wider benefits for the local area, London and beyond. 1.5. East London has some of the highest levels of deprivation in England. In 2010 the English Indices of Deprivation ranked Hackney as the most deprived Borough, followed by Newham and Tower Hamlets ranked second and third and Waltham Forest seventh1. This provides a useful context to the area, demonstrating why the legacy of the Games in terms of improving the life chances of residents is key to the aims and remit of the London Legacy Development Corporation. 1.6. In order to address the issues faced by many living within the most deprived

  • Housing, Credit and Brexit
    Housing, Credit and Brexit Ben Ansell∗ Abstract Dozens of articles have been drafted attempting to explain the narrow vic- tory for the Leave campaign in Britain’s EU referendum in June 2016. Yet, hitherto, and despite a general interest in ‘Left Behind’ commentary, few writ- ers have drawn attention to the connection between the Brexit vote and the distribution of British housing costs. This memo examines the connection be- tween house prices and both aggregate voting during the EU referendum and individual vote intention beforehand. I find a very strong connection at the local authority, ward, and individual level between house prices and support for the Remain campaign, one that even holds up within regions and local authorities. Preliminary analysis suggests that housing values reflect long-run social differences that are just as manifest in attitudes to immigration as Brexit. Local ‘ecologies of unease’ (Reeves and Gimpel, 2012) appear a crucial force behind Brexit. This is a short memo on housing, credit and Brexit to be presented at the University of Wisconsin, Madison, April 2017. ∗Professor of Comparative Democratic Institutions, Nuffield College, University of Oxford. [email protected]. My acknowledgements and thanks go to Jane Gingrich for the provision of local economic and housing data. 1 1 Introduction If there is one saving grace of Brexit for the British higher education system it is a boom of Brexit studies that began pouring forth as the dust settled on June 24th 2016. Most scholars have coalesced around an understanding of Brexit that to some extent mirrors that implicit in Theresa May’s quasi hard Brexit strategy - Brexit was caused by both economic and cultural forces, with opposition to the European Union based on concerns about immigration and of declining cultural and social status rather than economic deprivation or actual migration levels per se (Kaufmann, 2016).
