On Tuesday 19th January Haringey's Cabinet approved the Issues and Options Document for Wood Green Area Action Plan (AAP, part of Wood Green’s Future Plan) to go out to public consultation from February 8th to 19th March 2016. This includes four options for how the town centre could change over the next 15-20 years.
At the meeting on the 2nd of February we will be reporting on the public consultation carried out in November 2015 and informing on the plans for the coming consultation on the AAP and Wood Green’s Future in February/March.

Council Leader Peray Ahmet and a few of her fellow councillors came to discuss the issues with our representatives.

The loss of trees is becoming an issue locally. The wonderful false acacia at the junction of Mayes Road and Coburg Road was removed because it ‘had a fungus’ - just in time for the planning application to build on the petrol station site beside it.
