SUMMARY:Barbican and Golden Lane Neighbourhood Forum - drop in
DESCRIPTION:The Barbican and Golden Lane community has applied to beco
 me a designated neighbourhood forum so that it can prepare a neighbour
 hood plan and participate in local planning matters on a statutory bas
 is. Under the government’s Localism legislation, communities can dra
 w up their own plans that become part of the statutory framework for l
 and use. This will be the City of London’s first neighbourhood forum
  and neighbourhood plan.\r\nThe application is supported by local resi
 dents, councillors, businesses and community groups such as GLERA and 
 the BA. As the process develops we hope support and membership will gr
 ow.\r\nTim Godsmark, Chair of GLERA says “As Chair of GLERA I fully 
 support the Barbican and Golden Lane Neighbourhood Forum which takes r
 esident involvement in planning policy a step forward following on fro
 m the resident proposed conservation area.”\r\nAlderwoman Sue Pearso
 n: “I’m a great supporter of neighbourhood plans and the Barbican
  and Golden Lane Forum will give residents the ability to shape the de
 velopment of the area.”\r\n\r\nKey Points \r\n1. This is about plann
 ing. The Forum is supported by the BA and GLERA as well as other local
  resident associations, as it strengthens local influence by;\r\n• C
 reating a Neighbourhood Plan (in line with the City’s Local Plan)\r\
 n• Commenting on planning applications\r\n• Influencing CIL spendi
 ng – the c£9m annual levy on planning applications\r\n2. The Neighb
 ourhood excludes areas in Islington as it would be too complex and cos
 tly to co-ordinate two boroughs at this stage.\r\n3. The Forum needs y
 our support – the consultation to bring it in runs to midnight on We
 dnesday 21st June, 2023\r\n\r\nConsultation\r\nThe City of London has 
 started a statutory consultation about the Neighbourhood Forum. The co
 nsultation deadline is Wednesday 21st June at midnight\r\nhttps://city
 neighbourhoodplans.commonplace.is/\r\n\r\nPlease:\r\n• Support the a
 ims of the Forum \r\n• Support the Area defined by the Forum \r\n•
  Reject extending the Area into Islington \r\n\r\nCome and find out mo
 re during the consultation open drop-in session for residents, workers
 , businesses and community groups. More info on Forum website\n\nFor m
