The group started developing these ideas in 2001 and published the Redcliffe Neighbourhood Framework in November 2002. “Redcliffe Futures has been fully involved in developing this SPD. Both the Neighbourhood Framework and General Principles are the foundations of this Supplementary Planning Document and the Council thanks the group for all their hard work in helping to prepare this document. The Council and community now wish to work with landowners and developers to deliver the vision of this SPD.” Councillor Dennis Brown, Executive Member for Transport and Development Control, Bristol City Council * The group’s membership has included representatives from: Avon Fire Brigade, Arup, Business West, Bristol City Council, Bristol Civic Society, South West Primary Care Trust, Bristol Urban Villages Initiative, Buchanans' Wharf Management Company, Lyons Davidson Solicitors, Midshires Estates Ltd, Pattersons (Bristol) Ltd, Redcliffe Community Forum, Redcliffe Residents Association, Redcliffe Parade Environmental Association, St Mary Redcliffe Church, English Heritage, St Mary Redcliffe Church of England Primary School, United Bristol Healthcare Trust (UBHT), Custom House Management Company, Beckett Hall, Byzantium Restaurant. i Supplementary Planning Document Number 3 THE VISION FOR REDCLIFFE IS: A sustainable neighbourhood of compact, mixed-use development that is human-scale, accessible to all and respectful of the area’s history and character.

It will have formal status as a material consideration within the planning process. 1.5. The Redcliffe Neighbourhood 1.3. Unsympathetic post-war development and highway works have degraded the area causing blank frontages, a poor pedestrian environment and severance between north and south.

Some versions of Adobe allow the viewer to move quickly between bookmarks. Submission to the Local Government Boundaries Commission by the Bishopston, Cotham and Redland Neighbourhood Partnership 15 February 2015 Nick Clark (Chair) Neighbourhood Partnership status This submission on the proposed City of Bristol ward boundary changes is made by the Bishopston, Cotham and Redland Neighbourhood Partnership. We are one of 14 Neighbourhood Partnerships within the City of Bristol, and cover the three current electoral wards of Bishopston, Cotham and Redland. The membership of the Partnership includes all Bristol City Councillors from these wards as well as representatives of local community groups and advocates for local topics of concern. This submission is made independently from that of any political party. As part of the devolution of local authority powers to a local level, we have responsibility for a small devolved budget from Bristol City Council but also for decisions on matters such as minor road schemes, management of parks and street scene, including local services, amenities, appearance and accessibility. We were not made aware of the current boundary consultation until shortly before the initial submission deadline. We have also not been given access to computer software to allow us to measure the effects of different boundary choices on electoral representation. We wish more had been done at an earlier stage to involve Neighbourhood Partnerships in providing their contributions to the current boundary changes. We therefore make the following submission, in reaction to the new boundary proposals, primarily on matters of principle.
