Easton

Legislation introduced in April 2009 calls on local authorities and developers to involve local people in decisions that affect them.

Local residents and architects have taken the initiative to find out what their community wants during a month-long intensive consultation this October.

The aim is to create a shared vision for Easton’s future which will then be developed into a strategic, community-led regeneration document that reflects local people’s aspirations.

An urban regeneration document which clearly sets out residents’ visions will not only give the community more power at the planning stage but will also be invaluable for developers and the local authority.

Producing a well-researched and relevant regeneration document will make the community’s wishes clear. Whilst we cannot guarantee that the document will be adopted fully, it should be invaluable in supporting the local authority’s obligation to consult.

The Love Easton Urban Design Task Group will be opening a Community Cafe, holding a street party, music events, consultation events and much, much more...

The Love Easton Community Cafe will open as a consultation ‘Hub’ on 3rd October 2009
5 Stapleton Rd, Easton, Bristol, BS5 0QR
