Pre RCC Member QUESTIONS

For 2 March 2015 RCC

ITEM 4

1. In The Appendix 6 of The latest RCC papers the latest comment is : “ Stair edging alternatives have now been sourced and agreed by Planning. To Rollout across the Estate following The Beech Street Gardens Project” -

This statement is very vague and considering that Defoe RTA has been asking that the poor and dangerous condition of the risers be rectified for over 12 months now we would like a more specific update. Currently the risers constitute a hazard.

The edging tiles have now been successfully installed within the Beech Gardens Project area and tiles have been ordered for the rest of the Estate. Where tiles edges are currently missing, they have been concreted temporarily and painted white.

ITEM 5

2. Bicycle facilities – On p45, question 8 seems to show that people don’t want pods. But p43 says that we’re going to spend some of the funding on pods. Why is that?  Are we assuming that people didn’t choose pods in question 8 because they didn’t know what they were?

The survey was to assist in preparation for the allocation of monies for next for financial year – if successful in receiving further funding from TfL.

3. Why not select a colour that matches one on the "approved palette"? Why not have the galvanised-iron ends (of poor quality galvanising) painted to match as above? Ditto for main frame of BIKEHANGAR?

The facilities we have received are a gift from funding via TfL and the products discussed with Planning.

4. When the Listed Building Consent Officer was consulted, was he or she informed that these rack are permanently bolted down?

Yes

5.Was the officer, referred to above,
