The Liberal Democrat administration on Kingston Council has committed to giving the residents of Cambridge Road Estate a say on the future of a regeneration project that would have a major effect on their homes.

Councillors have voted to remove an unpopular ‘built out kerb’ at Buckingham Road after concerns were raised by residents.

Councillors have voted in favour of granting local listing status to Norbiton Hall in Kingston at a recent Kingston Neighbourhood Commitee meeting.

Local Liberal Democrats have committed to working with the community on the proposed regeneration of Cambridge Road Estate, and to hold a ballot of residents on the final regeneration deal.

Local Lib Dem Focus team is proposing to put two venues in Norbiton under the control of community organisations.

More needs to be done to resolve homelessness in Kingston

CNM Estates have withdrawn their controversial planning application to build a 14-storey tower block on the site of Canbury Business Park.

This retreat follows intense local opposition to the plans.  Residents in neighbouring streets felt the tower block was too high for the area and many were appalled that the plan included very little provision for affordable housing. It would also have required the re-siting of a school.

The Labour London Mayor has just reviewed the proposed 14-storey development of Canbury Business Park.
