Starting mid June and running until 29th October 2010 Bristol City Council is holding public consultation on the ideas and possible housing developments affecting our green spaces.

In order to see the ideas you need to go to here (page 11 for Okebourne Road space and page 17 for Crow Lane) but to get a view of all the sites you have to go to this page . You can also look at the copies held by the library but they do not have any  to take away.

Mark Weston has arranged for an information meeting on the proposals for Henbury & Brentry Ward at Emmanuel Chapel on Saturday 24th July at 10:00 am.

As you will note from the documents referenced above the green space proposals are being published for the whole Henbury and Southmead Neighbourhood Partnership. A Drop-In meeting for the whole area will be held on Monday 27th September at the Greenway Centre, Southmead from 12 noon to 20:00

You can make your comments on the proposals using this link

- Investment opportunity to improve the space
Area Green Space Plan Assessment of this site states:
“Local residents feel passionate that Crow Lane Open space is at the heart of their community – however it’s “no go” reputation and associated anti-social behaviour at certain times of the day and evening, it’s size and the access to all of the space makes it difficult for this sense of ownership to be expressed.”
Crow Lane Open Space is being looked at separately by Masterplanners employed by the City Council. Proposals for these sites will be presented during a public consultation in September. A session was held to discuss these sites in May – these views have been fed back through into the work considered by the masterplanners.
