Consultation to decide on building designs for new homes
Another round of consultation kicks off this month as Ealing Council pushes forward with the regeneration of South Acton Estate.
Throughout November, the Council will be holding meetings to consult with residents on the proposed building designs for the estate's new homes, tower blocks and environment. Residents will be asked to contribute their views on a number of different design aspects including the layout of the new flats, the use of green space on the estate and what each new property should look like.
Once the consultation is complete, detailed design plans will be submitted to the council for final planning permission. A public exhibition of initial building designs will be held offering residents one last chance to have their say on the designs.
Councillor Ian Green, cabinet member for adult services and housing, said: “We want to create the best possible homes and environment for all residents that live on the estate. For us to achieve this goal, we need residents to tell us exactly what they want from the new buildings and homes we’re creating for the estate. We will take residents’ ideas to the architects and ensure they are considered when developing final building designs. I would encourage residents who have questions on any aspect of the next stage of building and design to contact their independent tenants advisor or the council."
This round of consultation is part of Phase 2 of the regeneration project. The proposed designs are for new buildings which will replace tower blocks that have recently been knocked down. Residents wanting to discuss any part of the consultation process, can contact their independent tenants advisors on free phone 0800 0234 807.
The public exhibition of building designs will be held at The Change Base, Bollo Bridge Road from 4-8 December,10am – 5pm.
Consultation meetings will be held at Bollo Brook Youth Centre, Bollo Bridge Road on 30 November (6-8pm), 1 December (12.30 – 4.30pm) and 2 December (10am –
