Ashburnham Triangle Association

The new chair of the Safer Neighbourhood Board, Cheryl, led a meeting on Friday 11 November to discuss the changes to Greenwich borough Safer Neighbourhood wards. The Ashburnham Triangle is part of the Greenwich Park Ward. We are currently looking to recruit a diverse range of residents to join the local ward panel, which will be held with the Greenwich Creekside Ward. The panels are held approx six times a year and are attended by local officers, councilors and members of the Greenwich Safer Spaces teams. If you are interested in supporting security and help shape and feed into policing in the local area please get in touch. There is a meeting about the formation of the new wards on 19 January at 18:30. Please note the new email address for the local Safer Neighbourhood Policing Team: GreenwichPark@met.police.uk

( Click here to see the document.) The document highlights the existing consented scheme and then goes on to highlight the proposed amendments that will be made through a Section 73 planning application. (A section 73 enables planning permission to be granted on the same development as previously authorised by an earlier planning permission, but subject to different conditions - it doesn’t enable permission to be granted on a different development)  The salient points to note on the new proposal are;  They are no longer planning for the second basement level which will minimise disturbance from construction and excavation and should be less time consuming.  Heights of the 4 taller buildings immediately behind the magistrates court are increasing - notable fo...

Dear all, Following the sad news of the death of the Queen, the country is now in a period of mourning. Her Majesty’s funeral is likely to take place either on the day of our planned street party next weekend or shortly afterwards. In the circumstances I am sure you will understand our decision to cancel the event this year. We shall rearrange the party to take place in 2023. Regards, Roger, ATA Chair
