(A-B) Starkie, Emily From: Wasee Abu Sent: 07 May 2017 21:10 To: reviews; Subject: Comments on LGBCE Croydon Review I am responding to the draft report by the LGBCE Boundary Review for LB Croydon, for which the deadline for comments is 8th May 2017. I have been a Purley resident for the last 11 years and an active member of the community. I’m delighted to see that you propose to remove the anomaly whereby many local residents who think of themselves as living in Purley because they have a Purley postal address, find that they live officially in Kenley or Coulsdon West wards. I often receive casework from local residents who describe themselves as living in Purley, and they are sometimes quite upset to find that they are deemed to be living elsewhere. It’s clearly the case that “postal Purley” is far too large to be a single ward, but your proposal to split it into two wards of three and two councillors respectively, to be called Purley & Woodcote and Purley Oaks & Riddlesdown is obviously sensible. The name Purley & Woodcote restores a sense of pride and a historical link to the pre-GLC era in the Woodcote area of West Purley, as the residents certainly do not think of themselves as living anywhere near Coulsdon, nor do most of them have a CR5 postcode, which belongs to Coulsdon. The new warding pattern also places all of Purley town centre into one ward, whereas there are currently arbitrary ward boundaries slicing through the town only 100m South & East of its recognised centre. The name Purley Oaks & Riddlesdown also reflects reality on the ground; it is pleasing that Purley Oaks station will now be in a ward reflecting its own name, while Riddlesdown is now recognised as a location in its own right, well known for Riddlesdown Common and for the major sixth form college in the area, Riddlesdown Collegiate. In summary, I strongly support your proposals, and I hope that they are implemented in full.

I would like to suggest improvements which better meet the stated goals of of the boundary review for the ward of Addiscombe. Having lived in the area for a period of time, I feel that it is essential to maintain a coherent ward of Addiscombe. It does not make sense to me or to my partner who works in a local school for the ward to be potentially divided between different wards and several councillors as it lessens the clear link between the community at large and the council that will be elected to represent it. The current proposals seem artificial, and and will link areas such as Park Hill and Davidson Road that really don’t have that many meaningful community links. I support the alternative proposals that would involve two new wards (see attached) based on areas along the Lower Addiscombe Road. Addiscombe would be better represented by recognising Addiscombe Road as the community’s southern limit and reincorporating the Tollgate Estate to create one two‐member ward and one three‐member ward. A new ward could then be formed to the south of similar housing types around the parks, taking in Park Hill and the Whitgift Estate, which identify strongly with one another, and the isolated, lower density housing around Shirley Avenue. I feel that these proposals would enable the Commission’s argument around ‘Places’ and Croydon’s clear natural boundaries to be applied consistently across the borough, producing a set of proposals far more in keeping with the Commission’s three goals. Yours Sincerely, Nathaneal Amos‐Sansam 1 Starkie, Emily From: ChrisTine Armstrong Sent: 30 April 2017 19:10 To: reviews Subject: New boundary proposals Dear Sir/ Madam I’ve been told that there is a boundary review going on for Croydon council and that I can give you my opinion. I’m not a member of any political party but I’ve always been interested in politics and how the town is run. I retired a couple of years ago but before that worked all over the town, so I know it all pretty well. I have lived on Addiscombe for over 20 years. For a long time I worked at Whitgift School off Brighton Road. My daughter lives in Selsdon/Sanderstead, so I know that well as well. And I am about to move to Selsdon. So I am going to tell you what I think about the ideas you have got for all these places, not just where I live now. Where I live is Addiscombe, quite close to East Croydon station. When young people move here they usually do that because it is so convenient for the station. Your plans make a council ward for the centre of Croydon, for all those new people who are moving into the new tower blocks. That's happening not far from me in Addiscombe as well. I can see that there are enough people living west of the railway line in the town centre to make it entitled to its own councillors. I think it makes lots of sense to put my area in with Park Hill. You see loads of people walking to the station every day in my area and loads in Park Hill too. I don’t think Park Hill has any shops. Probably the people who live their either use the ones near me in Addiscombe or in the town centre. There’s loads of doctors and dentists in Addiscombe near the station and I reckon the people in Park Hill must use them, like people here do. I used to work sometimes in the areas either side of Addiscombe Road up near the Trinity School roundabout. That hasn’t got a lot in common with my area, so putting all that in another area makes sense to me. I used to work at Whitgift School, which is in Waddon. That’s been in Waddon for as long as I was there. The area around it is all nice big houses or blocks of flats. The other side of the Brighton Road is all terraced houses. Your new ideas leave this area alone and I think that’s right. My daughter lives in At the moment some of that road is in Selsdon ward, some in in Sanderstead and some is in Croham Hurst. That’s really confusing for everyone. Everyone round there thinks they live in Sanderstead, and that’s where you have put it. I think that’s right. All that area including West Hill is really Sanderstead. And in a few weeks I am moving Selsdon. You’ve split Selsdon into two bits, a north bit and a south bit. I’m going to be in the south bit. That looks right to me. Where I am is cut off from Sanderstead. Without going back up to the junction on Addington Road you can go the back way through Selsdon Vale and over to Forestdale.

  • CHASE Residents' Association
    CHASE Residents’ Association Via: www.chaseresidents.org.uk CHASE Residents’ Association submission to the Local Government Boundary Commission for England’s consultation on proposed changes to ward boundaries within the London Borough of Croydon We wish to draw the Commission’s attention to difficulties that would be posed by putting into practice draft recommendations for changes to ward boundaries within the Addiscombe area of Croydon Central. We propose an alternative re-drawing of boundaries, a position we believe is in keeping with the views of a number of neighbouring residents’ associations and individuals. Established communities The notional boundaries of the “community” of Addiscombe are distinct from the present electoral ward of Addiscombe in that the community includes a sizeable part of the present Ashburton Ward. Addiscombe Road forms the southern boundary, in both electoral and community terms, for both wards. Residents of Fairfield Ward to the south do not identify with the community of Addiscombe. Within the current electoral wards of Addiscombe and Ashburton there is a more distinct community-based division between: • The western end, where residents living near East Croydon Station gravitate towards shops, schools, churches and facilities in the area between Cherry Orchard Road and Clyde Road. • The eastern side, where the Lower Addiscombe Road is the main district centre serving a community extending from east of Ashburton Park to Elgin Road to the west. Difficulties presented by the proposed boundaries Creating the proposed new wards of Addiscombe West & Park Hill and Addiscombe East by imposing an arbitrary border between Addiscombe/Ashburton and extending these wards south of Addiscombe Road would include areas with no natural affinity with Addiscombe.

  • Croydon London Borough
    Croydon London Borough Personal Details: Name: Richard Chatterjee E-mail: Postcode: Organisation Name: Comment text: To the Local Government Boundary Commission As a resident since 1992 within the Addiscombe and Shirley Park Residents' Association (ASPRA) area, and who has represented the current Shirley Ward as a councillor since 2002, I hope that the following comments will be useful generally but especially in relation to Addiscombe and Shirley. The 16 'places' of Croydon were arrived at to meet the needs of the communities of Croydon and, just like the histories of Addiscombe referred to below, are objective and not generated for electoral ends; they deserve to be given greater weight than the council's proposals because of that objectivity and even- handedness. Identities If you ask people here where they live, they will give their geographical location, such as Addiscombe, Shirley, Purley, Woodside, South Norwood, Upper Norwood, Sanderstead, West Croydon, and Norbury. Some of those areas are large, such as Addiscombe (which naturally runs eastwards from the line out of E Croydon railway station and is centred on the Lower Addiscombe Road); beyond that, including the Longheath estate, people usually describe themselves as being in Shirley, and contact the Shirley councillors even though they are technically in the artificially construct of 'Ashburton Ward'. Geographic Shirley is greater than the current Shirley Ward, as it really comprises the stretch southwards from the Longheath estate, and to the Shirley Hills (which are also known as the Addington Hills, according to which map is being used). The reasons for these identities is the natural boundaries such as railway lines, the roads that glue the communities together (eg the Lower Addiscombe Road shopping centre has shops on one side and houses on the other that have permanent free parking outside; have bus routes that people from both sides of the road come together to use, and the Addiscombe Tram Stop; and socially cohesive pubs such as The Alma and The Claret).
