    Response to Petition to Extend the Dartmouth Park Area Healthy Neighbourhood Consultation Deadline

    Report of the Director of Environment and Sustainability

     

    This report is in response to a petition which was received by the Council in regard to extending the Dartmouth Park Area Healthy Neighbourhood consultation deadline. The petition states, ‘We’re asking for an extension, explanation of the purpose and objectives and real consultation.’ The petition received 2308 signatures, of those 595 signatures are Camden addresses. The report outlines the Council’s response in addressing the key issues raised in the petition.

     

    As part of our Camden Transport Strategy programme of works, officers have developed initial proposals for a “Healthy Neighbourhood” in the area of Dartmouth Park covering Highgate, Kentish Town North ward and part of the London Borough of Islington.

     

    The project’s main aims are:

     

    ·         Make the area greener, healthier, and more pleasant to spend time in, with new plants, trees, and seating.

    ·         Create safer streets in the area for children to travel independently, feel confident walking, scooting, and cycling, and with new areas for play.

    ·         Reduce traffic in the area to make local streets quieter, less polluted, and safer to walk and cycle around.

    ·         Support local businesses to thrive; and

    ·         Improve health and wellbeing through cleaner air and by making it easier to walk, cycle and wheel.

     

    This Healthy Neighbourhood project has just undergone a six-week Phase 2 Engagement with local people to collect feedback and comments on initial proposals shared. This phase 2 engagement was the second phase of a 3-phase process of engagement for the project.

    Camden Transport Strategy Delivery Plan 2025 - 2028 and Local Implementation Plan

    Report of the Cabinet Member for Planning and a Sustainable Camden

     

    Transport plays an integral part in the lives and well-being of Camden residents and those who visit, work and study in the borough. Creating healthier, greener, safer streets and travel helps improve public health and the environment, and supports local businesses and a strong, sustainable and inclusive economy. Although significant challenges remain, we have made extensive progress in delivering safer, healthier streets and travel in Camden since the Camden Transport Strategy (CTS) was adopted in 2019. Camden is currently ranked 4th amongst all London Boroughs by the independent “Healthy Streets Scorecard” assessment.

     

    This report updates Cabinet on where we are now in delivering the current Camden transport strategy including healthier, safer streets and transport across Camden, and uses that information, alongside prioritisation methodologies, stakeholder feedback and other considerations such as funding to propose the next CTS Delivery Plan for 2025/26 to 2027/28. It also seeks approval for proposals for TfL “Local Implementation Plan” (LIP) funding bid submissions, and for further Council Capital “Healthy Streets” funding to support the 3-year plan. In the new 3-year plan we have recommended 3 new “spotlight” areas: buses, car clubs and motorcycle safety, alongside an EQIA on the new Delivery Plan.

     

    In line with previously approved transport strategy processes, each individual project within the proposed 3-year Delivery Plan is subject to scheme-by-scheme consultation and decision-making processes, equality considerations and funding availability. We will also consider how relevant projects within the programme contribute to our three overarching themes of public health, environment, and local economy.

    Draft North London Joint Waste Strategy 2025-2040

    Report of the Managing Director, North London Waste Authority

     

    The draft North London Joint Waste Strategy (the Strategy) is a statutory requirement and is a joint strategy between Barnet Council, Camden Council, Enfield Council, Hackney Council, Haringey Council, Islington Council, the North London Waste Authority (NLWA) and Waltham Forest Council. The Strategy will guide our work for the next fifteen years and through the aims and activities as set out in the document, will help north London move towards a low waste, sustainable future.

     

    NLWA is facilitating a public consultation on the Strategy, seeking views from residents, business and local communities to ensure a fully rounded and robust final Strategy is developed which draws on a wide range of views and expertise. The consultation will be over a 12-week period and will close on 19 January 2025. Adoption of the Strategy is expected in 2025.
