Mitcham's Corner Development Framework SPD

Representation ID: 31388

Received: 16/10/2016

Respondent: Ms Anne Rivington

Representation Summary:

I agree that everything should be underpinned by sustainability. All features of a new Mitcham's corner should be totally ecological in their design. For example planting wild flowers which is good for the environment and great visually. Large areas of wild flowers(like those on Jesus Green this summer)affect people's behaviour in a positive way,improving sociability and reducing tensions.This has been done successfully in other UK cities. Also planting trees in groups enables then to support each other and improves the air we breathe. Plant more of them in a large central grass area,rather than having isolated trees surrounded by paving.
