"Sorry but Crystal Palace is absolutely something to with a council ! - Mayor of London, London assembly, the new GLC whatever you what like to call it. And as it serves the need of a community that is very close by I would think that local council, would take some interest ?"


But your point related to borough council's rather than the Mayor or the London Assembly, and local council's taking an interest in developments is not the same as having a responsibility for which they should be put under close public scrutiny, except where a project (such as CP) is could be, or is, part of the council's culture/sport/leisure strategy.


"As for the scrutiny commitee and the minutes it's not exactly direct engagement, and does not cover what has been decided outside of meetings and behind closed doors."


You said there was no scrutiny provision and I showed you that there was. Whether you are satisifed with it is a different issue, but you are free make your views known here through Community Councils and elected councillors (you could even stand yourself), unlike in places under the political control of people such as General Musharaf.

    • I have no information on that. I'd imagine GALA would be happy to advise you direct. I am interested to know what happened at the consultation meeting a few days ago and am hoping that someone from FOPRP can share. The concern is that it is proposed to extend the event footprint and timeframe.  If successful, this could set precedent for further extensions and for other events organisers to bid for slots throughout summer, in a scenario similar to what has happened at Brockwell Park. This is not a flight of fancy, Cllr Catherine Rose has stated intention to monetise parkland.
    • I didn't get residents tickets, but have signed up for the early bird release which goes live today at 10:00 am - I haven't received a link or access code though... anyone else?  
    • I've done this 3 times recently and they actually respond very quickly to clean the mess
    • There are also really bad pitted holes further up near the school and hospital - mainly in the areas cyclists use near the pavement. I have no idea why the pavement and road surfaces of this road used by so many children walking and cycling to school is so poorly served by whoever is responsible for maintenance.  A note to all the people driving up to the barrier and forced to do a u-ey,  when there are 4 x road closed signs….. maybe the road is closed. Doh!
