  • Autumn 2014 Eastcote Residents’ Association Founded 1930 Newsletter Issue 47
    era news Autumn 2014 Eastcote Residents’ Association founded 1930 newsletter issue 47 EASTCOTE IN BLOOM Following campaigning by the Eastcote Residents’ Association (ERA), Eastcote has received an array of hanging baskets throughout Field End Road, with thanks to Hillingdon Council. Eastcote’s main shopping area received some seasonal inspiration just in time for the summer, as a number of hanging flower baskets were installed on lampposts. The injection of colour throughout the area offers an immediate visual boost and really livens up the area. The baskets were delivered following requests from the ERA, noting the improvements and investment in neighbouring towns. With help from local councillors and support from local residents, the council delivered the baskets in June. Eastcote has recently received a number of minor improvements in the local landscape, with new seating installed by Budgens and seating repairs completed outside the library. In addition, Eastcote has recently received major road surface improvements as well as junction improvements outside the station in 2012. With the recent formation of the Eastcote Chamber of Commerce, it is hoped that Eastcote will have an even brighter future ahead, with local businesses and residents working together to bring further enhancements to the area. INSIDE THIS ISSUE Keeping you up to date with local issues: the newly formed Eastcote Chamber of Commerce, meet your new councillors and the new inspector for Hillingdon North, the archaeological dig at Eastcote House, the naming of the

  • MOD Disposals Report FINAL
    In the public interest? Community benefits from Ministry of Defence land disposals A report by Julian Dobson for the Bill Sargent Trust Rowner estate, Gosport - see page 40 1 In the public interest? Community benefits from Ministry of Defence land disposals: research report Executive summary The planned disposal of large swathes of Ministry of Defence land offers a unique opportunity to address housing shortages in the UK and provide long- term economic benefits to local communities. The Ministry of Defence is under increasing pressure to rationalise its landholdings and save public money. This process was already well advanced before the financial crisis and subsequent recession of 2008–9. It is likely to accelerate as the 2010 Strategic Defence Review proceeds and the MOD seeks to release additional funds for frontline services. Widespread public benefits can be achieved through many of these land disposals. But little research has been done to examine how this can be realised and for the last decade there has been minimal interest in the issue from central government. This report raises significant issues of public policy that have been largely ignored for many years. Much MOD land is in areas that have been highly dependent economically on military activity (such as Aldershot and Whitehill Bordon in Hampshire) and the release of land is an opportunity not only to meet housing need but also to reconfigure defence-dependent local economies. Other sites are of significant historic interest and are valued by local communities; the opportunity to reuse them to meet contemporary needs should not be passed over.
