Planning for real – build your own perfect park Attendees were asked to work in their groups to 1. After attendees had split into to groups of 5-6 ‘build their perfect park’, through discussion and people, they were provided with a large map of debate, with the aim at arriving at a consensus of the park and various representations of different any competing views from fellow group members. 53 Leisure centre (blue dots) and sports facilities (yellow dots) The map shows that the majority of residents would like to see the leisure centre remain where it is currently located, and have the sports facilities situated on the playing fields. Parking (red dots) and access (orange dots) The map demonstrates that residents would like to see access at certain points along the park boundary; in the north east corner, adjacent to Morden South Rail and at the Lower Morden Lane/ Epson Road corner. The majority of residents would like to see parking at the college site and along Lower Morden Lane. Nature Improvements (purple dots) Nature Improvements such as a hay meadow, pond, nature play facilities and new trees would be welcomed across the whole park, especially in the southern parts. 54 Car park (orange dots) and leisure centre (red dots) Broadly speaking, residents would like the leisure centre and car park to remain where they are, with additional car parking at Lower Morden Lane. Sports Facilities (Tennis Courts: black dots, Football Pitches: dark blue dots, Cricket Nets: burgundy dots, Cricket Pitches green dots) The consensus is for improved sports facilities to be placed where the existing ones are on the playing fields and at the Lower Morden Lane/Epsom Road corner. Play Facilities (yellow dots) and Bandstand (purple dots) Residents would like to see playing facilities in a variety of locations: on the South West fields, near the existing leisure centre and on the playing fields. As for the bandstand, its current location is well-loved by residents. 55 “Lack of respect for saving and nurturing our green spaces” “The challenge of maintaining to a high standard the upkeep on non-commercial sports facilities” • The Community Trust has ideas for meeting part of this challenge • Another way is to charge fees on a not- for- profit basis (i.e. to lower costs only). “Tackling / avoiding vandalism and litter in the park” “It is important to take into account the larger communities views. However the impact of decisions falls on those who live nearby. These Constraints – how do we deliver the vision? people’s views need to have higher weighting.” 2.a For the second part of the workshop, “The Council!” attendees were asked to discuss and record the constraints to achieving the vision for Morden “No extreme environmental changes” Park. Attendees were also asked to then consider how the constraints might be overcome and how “Tennis courts: not too many, because of noise the vision could be delivered. The constraints (minority view), maintenance needed” identified by attendees are outlined below: “Pond dangerous for children – would “Geography – flooding / marshy land in place” need enclosure” “Any new building should not be built over Stone Street” “Football pitches - changing facilities needed, maintenance” “Some form of park ranger to make sure that any new buildings do not get damaged by youths – “Putting green – maintenance needed, kiosk to be which will happen!!! And generally to keep the staffed regularly” park clean” “Leisure centre – rebuild where at present? “Lack of manpower e.g. to have and empty more (include swimming pool), staffing levels” bins, clean up litter, police for litter etc.” “All proposals involve cost – initial and/or ongoing (for maintenance and staffing)” “Politics of the Council and politics between the various political parties” “Finance – payments for sports facilities” “Lack of empathy for needs of young people and 2.b Some of the ideas for helping to achieve the children and the disabled” vision are outlined below: “Priority in these economic times?” “Grants from sports bodies” “Safety issues” “Community Trust to leverage in grant funding” “Lack of coordination, cooperation, and “Additional parking on grasscrete for events communication between departments and lack of such as Wimbledon, concerts – infrequent but clear vision and leadership in the Council” heavy demand” 56 “Information boards in the park should “Not-for-profit fees for use of sporting facilities include maps – no information from (i.e. cover costs of maintenance, as you have with London Road entrance.” pitch and putt)” “Information centre to sell leaflets etc.

  • River Wandle Catchment Plan Section 4: Water Quantity and Flow
    River Wandle Catchment Plan Section 4: Water Quantity and Flow SECTION 4: WATER QUANTITY AND FLOW “Our Vision is a river full of water that is plentiful and clean, and varied in its flow speeds, widths and depths” Wandle Catchment Plan Objective 1: Water supply in all sections of the river is sufficient to sustain a healthy population of native flora and fauna, and is resilient to risk of drought or flood from extreme weather events or management for human use 4.1: Overview and historic flow records Chalk rivers like the Wandle rely on abundant autumn and winter rainfall (when evaporation and transpiration by trees and plants is reduced) to recharge their ground water aquifers, scour silt away from gravels during high winter flows, and then maintain flows at adequate levels for the rest of the year (English Nature and Environment Agency, 2004). When flows are reduced by abstraction and other pressures such as climate change, the duration of flow in winterbournes is shortened or lost altogether, perennial habitat for fish and other animals is lost, river gravels are choked by algae as a result of increased nutrient concentrations, and pollution events become more damaging because dilution is reduced. Most chalk rivers are located in south eastern England, where population densities are high (and growing) and rainfall is relatively low. In some river catchments, including the Wandle, ground water aquifers have historically been relied upon as a source of clean water for public supply: as a result, today’s flows in the Wandle are considerably reduced from their historic highs.

  • Sutton's Biodiversity Action Plan
    Sutton Biodiversity Plan front cover and dividers.qxd 20/01/2006 10:11 Page 1 Sutton Biodivers ty Partnersh p Biodiversity Action Plan Foreword It gives us great pleasure to present Sutton’s Biodiversity Action Plan for 2005- 2010. For the first time we have brought together a Sutton Biodiversity Partnership comprising key organizations and individuals who contribute to wildlife enhancement in the Borough. This partnership approach has resulted in Sutton’s first Biodiversity Action Plan. We are proud of the existing amount of good work carried out for the benefit of biodiversity in the Borough. It is our intention to build on this strong foundation, and this Biodiversity Action Plan (BAP) represents our clear intention to continue with our commitment to improving biodiversity. The UK is committed to conserving and enhancing wild species and wildlife habitats and has developed a UK Biodiversity Action Plan to achieve this. However, if the UK BAP is to succeed it requires a means to ensure that the national plan is translated into effective action at local level. The best approach to do this is by way of a Local Biodiversity Action Plan. By working together, public, private, business and voluntary bodies can deliver far-reaching conservation and enhancement of wild species and wildlife habitats. This plan also recognises that biodiversity conservation should be broadened to include those groups traditionally not involved in nature conservation. The Sutton plan includes a programme of action to gain broader commitment to biodiversity at every level. It is important to note that whilst this Local Biodiversity Action Plan is a product; it is also an ongoing process with this first plan continually reviewed and updated as necessary.

  • DRAFT Manor Park
    DDRRAAFFTT MMaannoorr PPaarrkk MMaannaaggeemmeenntt PPllaann 22001100 -- 22001155 1 Foreword by Councillor Colin Hall This document is the latest in a number of management plans for our parks, and I am very happy to say that they have helped to maintain and raise the high standards in our flagship parks. The London Borough of Sutton’s parks make an important contribution to the borough being considered to be one of the greenest urban areas in the country, and in Sutton we are lucky to have nearly 1500 acres (just over 400 hectares) of parks and open spaces borough wide. Parks are central to people’s quality of life and play a vital role in improving health, providing places for children to play and learn, increasing the economic value of a town, providing space for wildlife and in making our communities safer and stronger. The 2006/07 Council survey carried out by IPSOS MORI showed that 80% of people in Sutton are satisfied with our parks and open spaces. This tells me how vital and important our parks and open spaces are to the people of Sutton, and that is why we have produced a series of management plans for key parks sites. The eventual aim for this park is to achieve the nationally recognised Green Flag award for excellence in provision of public parks. At the time of writing this, the Council holds three of these awards for The Grove Park, Cheam Park and Recreation Ground, and Oaks Park. This management plan sets out the actions required to bring this park to that level.
