We asked

We asked for your views on the Draft Edgware Growth Area Supplementary Planning Document (SPD).

You said

We received 142 online questionnaire responses, in addition to 77 email responses, and approximately 160 people attended two online public consultation events. 87% of the online respondents agreed with the SPDs Vision and Objectives, while a broad level of support for town centre renewal was also expressed in consultation meetings and the email responses. Concerns were raised over increasing pressure on local community services, levels of congestion, impact on public car parking, and building design, notably height.

We did

In response to the public consultation, we revised the SPD to include strengthening references to the need for provision of community facilities, making the town centre more appealing for young people, and for design to consider local heritage and context. The final version of the document was adopted by the Policy and Resources Committee on 16 June 2021 and can be viewed here.
