Estate ballot process review (7)

  • Reference: 2022/1016
  • Question by: Siân Berry
  • Meeting date: 24 March 2022
In your response to the City Hall Greens budget amendment proposing a Resident Empowerment Fund, you said: "Estate residents may choose to reject proposals through voting or abstention if they are not confident, for any reason, that the proposals they have been offered are right for them or their community.” This reads as though abstention from voting in a ballot amounts to rejection of the proposals. Could you confirm whether this is the case? If it is, will you update your estate regeneration guidance and Resident Ballot Requirement Funding Condition documentation to reflect this?

What process are you following to reclaim or reallocate money given to boroughs for new walking and cycling infrastructure schemes that have been removed or cancelled?

Space standards and grants

  • Reference: 2022/1011
  • Question by: Siân Berry
  • Meeting date: 24 March 2022
During the recent London Assembly Housing Committee investigation into Alternative Methods for Expanding Social Housing in London, GLA requirements over space standards were cited as the reason for grant not being given to obtain older properties, refurbish them and add them to social housing supply aimed at families. Is this the case and, if so, what can you do to enable the buying back of larger homes that don’t meet current space standards?

District Heating Networks

  • Question by: Siân Berry
  • Meeting date: 24 March 2022
People who live in apartment blocks that are part of a District Heating Network (DHN) are treated as commercial rather than domestic users and are therefore not covered by the energy cap. In the London Plan it states that you are: “exploring how to increase the rate of their development in London, which will require central government to create a level playing field for the treatment of district heating networks compared to other statutory utilities regarding access rights and business rates. ” What action have you taken to lobby the Government on this and what response have you received?
