Waterloo Redevelopment 2016
To help keep everyone accross the proposals for the Waterloo redevelopment as they unfold REDWatch is bringing together key documents related to the Governments Plans for the Estate.
The first version of this Community Plus hand out was distribted to agencies on 28 November to agencies. Much of the content is similar to the LAHC response to the REDWatch questions. Please note this is the final version with changes made after the December 12 meeting with Minister Hazzard. This version was modified to recognise that relocations will not take place until mid-2018.
This framework has emerged from agencies asking Land and Housing Corporation (LAHC) to spell out their engagement framework in advance of any actual Master Plan engagement. It follows workshops with agencies in July and August and feedback from agencies to draft frameworks. A meeting at NCIE on November considered a draft and further changes were made after this meeting. This is the public document released in December 2016.
The Waterloo Connect team, along with the NAB, would like to invite you to an end-of-year BBQ on 8 December, 11.30am - 1.30pm at the Waterloo Neighborhood Centre. There will be free food and refreshments so come along and enjoy the festivities.
Discussions are still underway about what studies will be be undertaken in the Waterloo Master Plan which is scheduled to start in 2017. Land and Housing Corporation (LAHC) have said the Master Plan will determine where on the estate redevelopment will take place. These delays mean LAHC will not know until well after mid 2017 where they will start and which residents they will want to relocate. On 12 December 2016 it was decided that Waterloo tenants should be advised that the first relocations will be pushed back. A brief statement on the FACS website says LAHC are now looking at relocations starting mid 2018.
