GLA Planning For London Programme 2022-24
Both Jack Maizels’ slide (and the oral introduction it supported) and our summary of key issues raised during the two roundtables refer to the “Planning for London Programme” which the GLA London Plan Team (with Jack and 2CV) have been undertaking in the last year or so in preparation for a new round of London Plan-making/revision after next May’s Mayoral election.
Background information on what they have been doing via intensive engagement with a random sample of ordinary Londoners and now in roundtable exercises with stakeholders – together with links to the publicly available reports – can be found here:
The last of these has links to the main substantive outputs so far, notably substantial (and glossy) reports from the (market research) consultants on four core themes:
Towards a Green and Fair Economy; Sustainable Transport and Public Spaces; Housing in London; and Places and Communities
