We seek this in order conclusively to reverse the decline of Ladywell Village as a local retail centre and to foster a greater sense of local pride in the area, which the Council only last year designated as a Conservation Area."

This is another issue, but I wasn't sure where else to comment/contact. The lovely old street lights on Malyons Road are being removed and replaced with new lights, the residents have not been consulted about this and it seems to be going ahead right now. I tried contacting the council, but didn't really get anywhere. Does anyone have any information about this and have any idea of what we can do?
Apparently there's a 25yr PFI tie-up with Croydon to replace every street light in the borough. Perhaps the work in Malyons Road is part of this. Perhaps our ward councillors can pursue this one as some Council officers resent the involvement of the community.
