Concern was raised about dog
mess, and dogs off their leads on the estate including in the kids
playground. It was agreed that Hackney
Homes would liaise with the Community Safety team to increase
patrols on the estate. Hackney Homes staff can also issue FPNs.
The effectiveness of any
enforcement will depend in part on residents providing intelligence
on the times/places that dogs are causing a nuisance – any
concerns should therefore be reported to Hackney Homes.

The TRA are installing bike storage facilities
around the estate. The plans are based
on resident consultation and will be discussed at the next
TRA meeting on 10
December. In the meantime there is
still time for residents to influence the plans and to express an
interest in having access to bike storage.
Individual bike lockers will
cost residents £35 a year. Some
concerns were raised about the affordability of this for
residents. Cllr Mitchell agreed that
she would raise this issue with Hackney Homes on their
behalf.
It was reported that the
TRAis
having to pay for the installation of bike racks. Cllr
Alcock agreed to raise this issue with Hackney Homes, as she felt
the TRA should not have
to pay for this.
