Mitcham Town Centre update

At Monday nights scrutiny panel on Mitcham town centre is was agreed to set up a sub-committee to look into the revised revisions to the planning guidance for the regeneration of Mitcham and report back on the consulation that is to take place on the planning policy revisions.

Due to most of the meeting being in private session along with being in another meeting myself, I cannot report on what went on but the meeting seemed to be more constructive then previous discussions. Whether it lasts remains to be seen, as the scheme does need to be viable and sustainable, regenerating Mitcham has to be a high priority of the Council though I have my doubts much will happen with the Tories running Merton Council.
