Sue Pearson replied to Ruben Mendes's discussion Hatfield House Power Loss
"Michelle informs me that Ian is waiting for UK Power to switch on the power... The electrician has finished and certificates are signed and printed. I popped out a few minutes ago and everything is still dark but fingers crossed."
Sue Pearson replied to Ruben Mendes's discussion Hatfield House Power Loss

CITY DEFERS REFORM OF ITS DISCREDITED “STANDARDS” REGIME
As mentioned in my last blog https://www.goldenlaneestate.org/profiles/blogs/the-beginning-of-the-end-of-the-city-s-discredited-standards, a significant proportion of City residents signed a petition last year declaring that they had no confidence in the City Corporation’s “standards" regime. One of their demands was for reform of “standards" proceedings. A motion was put…See More

The beginning of the end of the City’s discredited “standards” regime?
Last year, more than 1,100 City residents - many of them in our ward of Cripplegate - signed a petition declaring 'no confidence' in the City's standards regime. That petition called for two specific reforms.The first was to let your elected representatives speak and vote on matters which affected both you and them as residents. After nine months of intense campaigning, including residents attending…See More

Graeme Harrower commented on Sue Pearson's blog post THE LATEST ON COLPAI WORKING HOURS
"I am responding to Alderman Graves’ comment below. His “newsflash” that ISG’s request to extend its working hours on the COLPAI site had been turned down was posted five days after…"
David Graves (your Alderman) commented on Sue Pearson's blog post THE LATEST ON COLPAI WORKING HOURS
"Just a positive Newsflash that ISG applied to extend the working hours from 7.30am to 9pm Monday to Saturday but this was refused by the Islington and the City Planning Departments. So people were right to be worried, but the right answer has been…"

THE LATEST ON COLPAI WORKING HOURS
Here is correspondence I’ve had with the City Corporation’s Policy Chair and the Community Services Chair after the government recently published guidance promoting longer working hours on construction sites: My email to the Policy Chair and Community and Children’s Services Chair on 14 May Will you undertake that the City Corporation, as the developer of the COLPAI project, will not seek permission to extend the working hours on the site in the light of government guidance published…See More

Construction hours
You may be aware that last week the government announced that it was allowing construction work to continue until 9.00pm weekdays and all day Saturdays.I have managed to secure the following statement form the City of London Corporation.We understand residents’ concerns on the impact of the Secretary of State for the Ministry of Housing, Robert Jenrick’s, statement advising local planning authorities to review applications from contractors for an extension to site working hours. The City…See More
Tim Godsmark commented on Sue Pearson's blog post ALDERMAN LUDER JUSTIFIES WORK ON COLPAI DURING LOCKDOWN
"Thank you Sue,
I live on the ground floor of Hatfield House within 12 metres of the site. I am trying to work at home as we are having to isolate as my youngest son is being treated for cancer. Our living room, where I have to work because of the…"
Anne Corbett commented on Sue Pearson's blog post ALDERMAN LUDER JUSTIFIES WORK ON COLPAI DURING LOCKDOWN
"Sue has worked tirelessly to support the residents and families on Golden Lane during this odd and difficult time. She has listened to residents and made time for the people who are isolated in their homes. No-one could doubt Sue’s commitment…"
Mark Bostock commented on Sue Pearson's blog post ALDERMAN LUDER JUSTIFIES WORK ON COLPAI DURING LOCKDOWN
"The City had an opportunity of showing real moral leadership by delaying the COLPAI construction work during this difficult period of lockdown. It has failed to do so. It is clear that families confined to their flats with their children…"
Jane Carr commented on Sue Pearson's blog post ALDERMAN LUDER JUSTIFIES WORK ON COLPAI DURING LOCKDOWN
"I wonder where Alderman Luder is living during lockdown? Not, I suspect, within 6m of a building site that continues to work noisily for upwards of 8 hours a day. Perhaps he would like to swap with me (if that was allowed) to experience first hand…"
William Pimlott commented on Sue Pearson's blog post ALDERMAN LUDER JUSTIFIES WORK ON COLPAI DURING LOCKDOWN
"I strongly support Sue Pearson’s position. A small delay in the work on COLPAI is justified in view of the enormous disruption its continuation causes residents during lockdown, as well as the potential health implications. City of London…"
