Crofton Park and Honor Oak Park Neighbourhood Planning Update

The Council consulted on the Crofton Park and Honor Oak Park proposed neighbourhood forum and neighbourhood area in February and March 2014.

Whilst there was a significant level of support for the proposal, the consultation exercise did reveal concerns by members of the public regarding the exclusion of those living outside of the proposed Neighbourhood Area from taking part in the Forum activities.

In response to these concerns, the proposed Crofton Park and Honor Oak Park Neighbourhood Forum has made revisions to the constitution to allow those outside the proposed area to become non-voting ‘associate members’ of the proposed Forum.

The full wording of the revised constitution can be found by clicking here. The relevant paragraph number is 6.2.

The applications for the proposed neighbourhood forum and area will be determined by the Mayor of Lewisham at the Mayor and Cabinet meeting on the 16th July 2014. Full details will be available a week before the meeting, and will be found by clicking here.

Please direct enquiries regarding procedural matters relating to the Mayor and Cabinet meeting to Kevin Flaherty, Head of Committee Business, 0208 3149327.

Yours faithfully


David Knight
