Elaine and David's commitments

Elaine and David promise to work for Northfields Ward residents by:

■ Working to ensure that older and more vulnerable members of the community gain maximum access to all local services

■ Representing local issues in local redevelopment and planning

■ Working to extend Town Centre regeneration initiatives along High Street North

Maximum access to local services for the older and more vulnerable

Whether council services or facilities provided by local businesses, it’s important that the needs of all community members are met whatever their capabilities.

We will work with key service providers (including the council) to make their services equally accessible to all, and to encourage the development of accessibility programmes to help non users gain better use of the internet.

Local Redevelopment and Planning

Northfields has three sites up for redevelopment - the Tidy Tip in French’s Avenue, the Greenacres Care Home site and the AC Delco/Highways Depot site.

Together we have first-hand experience of the ramifications of local development. There is no substitute for local knowledge in planning and the care with which the three sites mentioned above are developed will have a significant impact on the local community.

We will work to effectively represent local issues and concerns to planning committees, landowners and local developers.

Dunstable Regeneration extending into Northfields

The retail environment is a key factor in defining the atmosphere of an area. Dunstable Town Council has some great initiatives for regenerating the town centre, but we’d like to see the effects of this move up High Street North into the area between Chiltern Road and Brewers Hill Road.

We will work with the council and local retailers to help promote improvements to the local retail environment.
