REDWatch Monthly Meeting 4 Aug – Waterloo Estate: LAHC proceeds to implementation

Start: 2022-08-04T08:00:00

End: 2022-08-04T09:30:00

Location: Factory Community Centre 67 Raglan Street Waterloo and online via Zoom

There are two parts to the
redevelopment, the planning controls and the logistics of the redevelopment. Of
late the development discussion has focused only on the planning controls, but
it is important to also have discussions about how the redevelopment will be
done. 

 

On the logistics side LAHC has
now committed to the redevelopment of the Waterloo Estate starting with
Waterloo South. Developers and Community Housing providers are being sort,
potentially for the redevelopment of whole estate as part of the planning for
how the development will proceed. The community will see examples of the
redevelopment proceeding with contamination drilling planned in Waterloo South
in August. LAHC is reopening Waterloo Connect for a couple of days a week and
becoming more directly involved around the estate now that the formal
exhibition is over. Planning frameworks for relocations and human services are
also starting to happen. All of this is independent of the final planning
controls. REDWatch has asked LAHC to talk to this part of its activities at the
meeting.

This REDWatch monthly meeting
will be on Thursday 4th August at 6pm. It will be a hybrid
meeting to allow tenants with online difficulties to join in person at The
Factory Community Centre and for others who might be isolating or have
difficulty getting to The Factory to join via Zoom on https://tinyurl.com/RedwatchZoomMeeting.
