A
Good
afternoon
and
welcome
to
our
new
vcp
council
live
question
and
answer
sessions,
my
name
is
drew
mello
and
I'm
the
leader
of
bcb
council,
so
really
great
to
be
with
you
today
and
it's
great
to
be
back
during
these
sessions
as
well.
It's
been
it's
been
a
little
while
we've
had
some
really
helpful
and
good
feedback
around.
You
know
our
deep
dive
sessions,
how
useful
they
were
when
we
get
a
panel
of
people
together
and
answer
some
of
your
questions,
but
we
didn't
want
to
lose.
A
We
don't
want
to
do
too
many
of
those
and
lose
effectively,
but
you
know
every
two
weeks
challenge
and
an
opportunity
to
answer
questions
directly
to
me
either.
So
what
we've
done
now?
We've
taken
a
taken
out
feedback
and
we've
now
brought
together
those
sessions,
so
we're
actually
having
a
longer
session.
A
So
we
can
do
you
know
the
the
both
of
those
things
effectively,
and
we
really
believe
that
we,
you
know,
want
to
give
you
the
opportunity
to
question
us
as
a
council
and
and
hold
us
to
account,
and
we
we
don't
want
to
lose
that
part
of
the
q
a
so.
These
sessions
would
be
longer
more
focused
more
in
depth
in
the
previous
versions
and
as
well
as
hearing
from
me.
You'll
also
hear
from
key
people
behind
the
decisions
that
affect
affect
our
lives
here.
A
The
first
part
of
a
new
look,
q
and
a's
will
be
that
deep
dive
on
a
different
theme,
and
today
our
theme
is
cleaner,
greener,
safer
work.
So
thank
you
to
everybody,
who's
already
sent
in
your
questions
on
on
that
topic
and
the
team
who
lead
on
cleanit
greener,
safer,
and
I
will
try
to
answer
all
the
questions
you've
sent
us
then,
after
that
session,
so
which
is
gonna
be
about
half
of
this
hour
and
we're
going
to
revert
to
the
normal
live
questions
sent
in
by
those
of
you
joining
online.
A
So
hopefully
we
get
the
get
the
best
of
both
worlds,
really
keen
to
have
anybody's
feedback,
both
in
terms
of
how
these
new
sessions
are
working,
but
also
other
key
topics.
You
want
us
to
deep
dive
in
so
you
know
just
remember
these
are
your
sessions.
So
if
you
have
any
suggestions
at
all
or
feedback,
please
let
us
know
and
message
us
via
our
social
media
channels.
So,
okay,
so
what
we're
to
do
today,
I'm
going
to
spend
a
little
bit
time
on
on
cleaning
green
is
safer.
A
I
thought
it
would
be
I'll
just
kick
off
in
terms
of
what
we
actually
believe
that
to
be
what
what?
What
is
that
and
it's
our
plan
to
make
you
feel
truly
proud
of
living,
working
and
playing
in
our
fantastic
bournemouth,
christchurch
and
paul
region.
So
in
practice
this
means
leveling
up
our
services
and
investing
in
what
matters
most
to
residents
and
significant
feedback
is,
is
often
about
residents
want
to.
A
You
know
the
place
to
be
cleaner,
greener
and
safer,
and
what
I've
said
since
I've
been
leader
of
the
council,
it's
not
about
us
saying
we're
doing
that.
It's
about
us!
You
guys,
you
know
everybody
feeling
those
things
as
well,
so
it's
about
reveal
we're
building
a
clean,
green
and
safe
environment
across
bcp
area.
You
know
poster
pantene
pandemic
we're
going
to
run
into
a
a
video
now,
an
introductory
video
on
cleaning
green
and
safer,
which
the
team
are
just
about
to
play.
A
A
Great
thank
you
very
much
for
that
and
I
hope
some
of
the
some
of
the
stats
and
and
pictures
there
were
interesting
to
see.
You
know
this
has
been
a
priority
era
for
us
and
we're
trying
to
you
know,
got
a
long
way
to
go,
but
we're
trying
to
invest
significant
amount
of
money
in
in
delivering
for
that.
So,
okay,
let
me
let
me
introduce
our
team
they're
going
to
be
answering
questions
today,
so
perhaps
we
could
bring
everybody
up
online.
A
Firstly,
we've
got
I'll,
introduce
everybody
and
then
I'm
sure,
as
when
we're
coming
in
to
answer
questions,
people
can
can
introduce
themselves
again
and
so
first
of
all,
we're
joined
by
council
nichola,
green
and
who's
our
portfolio
holder
for
delivery.
Here
we've
got
kelly,
ansel
who's,
our
director
of
communities,
martin,
which
is
our
project
leader
in
environmental
services
and
simon
legg,
our
highways
delivery
manager.
So
thanks
everybody
for
spending
time
today
and
we've
now
got
a
list
of
questions
that
we're
going
to
our
answer
in
here.
A
B
A
Let's
go
first
of
all
to
to
the
questions
and
just
as
a
reminder
we'll
be
doing
this
for
about
half
a
half
an
hour
and
then
we'll
be
looking
forward
to
getting
your
questions
in
a
normal
way.
You
were
done
historically,
so
please
put
that
on
I'll.
Put
those
questions
in
and
I'll
and
I'll
be
answering
those
at
the
end
of
this
session.
So
great,
let's
go
to!
A
Let's
go
to
the
first
question,
which
I
believe
is
from
ann
millward
and
we're
going
to
get
up
online
and
yeah
so
and
said
we,
you
know,
had
a
wander
along
sandbanks
along
the
harbour
wallside
and
was
disappointed
to
see
that
most
of
the
benches
were
broken
with
slats
missing.
When
will
they
get
renovated?
So
you've
seen
some
of
the
investments
we've
done
in
street
furniture
in
the
video
there,
and
so
there
is
investment
going
in
perhaps
I'll
I'll
come
to.
A
Great,
thank
you.
Thank
you
very
much
and
I'm
hoping
people
are
starting
to
see
some
of
the
investment
is
that
is
going
in
okay,
then.
So
we've
got
a
question
now
from
elizabeth
cowley.
So
thanks
for
sending
for
sending
these
in
elizabeth
is
saying
all
the
streets
enchantments
to
need,
weeding
and
cleaning
middle
of
capstone
road,
particularly
bad.
It
seems
charming
as
main
street,
only
being
kept
on
top
of
parker
road
in
wynton.
Behind
the
weight
trays
is
in
a
bad
way
or
all
the
curbs
need
need
replacing
simon.
B
Yes
good
afternoon,
thank
you
for
raising
this.
My
name's
simon
leg,
yeah
weeds,
is
a
particular
problem
or
has
been
a
particular
problem
across
the
three
towns
we've
focused
this
year
on
starting
weed
control
programs
in
the
three
main
town
centres
and
are
rolling
that
out
right
across
bcp.
The
first
treatment
is
around
about
80
complete
and
the
second
treatment
will
start
again
in
august
with
regards
to
the
curbs
in
the
road
our
highway
inspectors
do
visit
and
carry
out
safety
inspections
on
a
regular
basis.
B
A
Yeah
and
your
reference
to
effect
some
reference
to
report
it
there.
If
perhaps
I
think
that
would
be
something
useful.
We
could
that's
our
reported
function
as
a
council,
so
yeah
great
thanks
for
that,
so
btp
council,
dot,
gov
dot,
uk
forward,
slash
report
it
so
any
issues.
Please
report
it
through
that
as
we're
becoming
a
more
digital
authority
and
they're
going
to
be
easy
ways
of
of
reporting
in
and
coming
into
next
year,
but
that
is
a
really
positive
way
for
now
yeah.
A
I
think
that's
a
you
know,
sort
of
a
national
problem,
so
if
anybody
does
is
aware
of
people
who
would
be
interested
in
any
of
the
vacancies,
we've
got
in
our
you
know
in
environmental
teams
be
really
keen
to
to
hear,
and
my
my
email
address
for
one
will
be
coming
up
a
number
of
times
today.
Yeah.
Thank
you.
Thank
you
very
much
for
that.
B
A
So
then,
let's
go
to,
I
think
we're
gonna
go
now
to
dan
dan
shave.
Great.
So
there's
a
wooden
play
equipment
on
haskell's
rec
for
it's
dangerous.
It's
been
reported,
it
was
taped
off
the
grass
allowed
to
grow
up
around
it
and
it
was
left.
It's
been
vandalized
and
there's
a
hazard.
It's
it's
time.
It
was
removed.
We
wasted
money
on
it
a
few
years
back
and
it
was
never
maintained.
A
It's
dangerous
and
it's
sorting
out
yeah,
so
I
mean
we've
got
it
I'll
I'll
start
there
down
and
then
I'll
bring
probably
mark.
Martin
in
on
that
question,
we've
got
a
real
commitment
across
children's
players
in
general
and
our
recreation
spaces
and
we're
hoping
to
bring
forward
some
some
work
on
that
generally
across
the
convention.
Now,
certainly,
as
you
know,
I've
got
young.
You
know
two
or
four
year
olds
and
appreciate
how
it's
important
those
areas.
Those
areas
are
so
pretty.
Martin.
B
A
D
No
problem,
thank
you,
drew
yeah.
Thank
you
for
your
question.
It's
nice
to
get
some
of
our
local
play.
Spaces
recognized
as
well
as
well
as
our
bigger
spaces,
so
yeah,
the
the
wooden
play
equipment.
That's
referred
to
here,
isn't
dangerous.
It's
part
of
kind
of
a
play
landscape
approach
to
place.
It's
not
all
equipment
within
a
fenced
place
space.
D
So
this
went
in
about
seven
years
ago
and
it
you
know
timber
naturally
degrades
and
deteriorates
from
the
ground,
but
that
in
itself
is
a
play
opportunity
for
for
young
people,
people
of
all
ages
and
as
part
of
that
wide
as
we
play
landscape
design.
So
it's
about
exploring
and
finding
those
natural
materials
we
inspect
the
play
equipment
and
the
natural
play
spaces
regularly.
We
don't
consider
any
to
be
dangerous
and
in
time
as
and
when,
if
they
do
need
removing,
then
obviously
we
will
do
that
work.
D
A
Yeah
great,
thank
you.
Thank
you
very
much,
though,
really
helpful.
So
let's
go
to
a
question.
Now
we've
got
from
martin
smalley.
Let's
get
that
question
quick
question.
I
was
relating
to
urban
urban
planting
and
and
trees
I'll.
Just
let
me
read
it
out
so
yeah,
martin
small.
If
this
relates
to
green
issues
that
has
bcp
council,
now
got
in
place
a
program
of
tree
replacement.
A
We
noted
that,
prior
to
bcc
being
formed,
no
tree
planting
took
place
in
the
previous
two
years
as
there
wasn't
a
budget
for
it
tree
ponds.
I
think
it's
so
important
for
decarbonisation
yeah
mark
martin
completely
completely
agree
with
that.
Hopefully
you
know
you're
starting
to
see
some
of
the
investment
and
budget
we're
putting
in
nichola
you'll,
probably
have
more
detail
on
that,
wouldn't
you
so
nicola.
Perhaps
you
could
answer
that.
Thank
you.
C
Yeah,
just
in
not
a
great
deal
of
detail,
but
martin.
Thank
you
so
much
for
the
question
and
actually
drew's
going
to
be
answering
a
question
in
a
little
while,
more
generally
about
the
the
climate,
emergency
and
obviously
tree
planting
is
a
really
really
important
part
of
it.
But
it
is
just
one
aspect
and
of
course
it
sits
along
with
alongside
meadow
management,
natural
regeneration
and
all
the
rest
of
it.
C
So
we
are
developing
this
tree
strategy
and
what
that
will
help
us
do
is
identify
places
for
planting
and
making
sure
that
we
plant
the
right
tree
in
the
right
place.
That's
as
as
important
as
as
selecting
the
tree,
and
you
know
that
will
form
that
lovely
tree
canopy,
which
will
help
to
benefit
future
generations.
Just
to
finish
with
a
little
fact
you
may
have
picked
up
on
the
on
the
video
is
that
in
the
year
20-21
we
planted
10
000
trees,
so
we're
on
the
journey.
A
Yeah,
great
and
and
there's
no
genuine
budget
in
there
to
how
we
can
enhance
our
our
tree
planting,
which
is
which
is
great
and
great
to
see.
Okay.
So,
let's
go
to
a
question
from
sally
briggs,
big.
Sorry,
why?
If
you're
going
to
bournemouth
town
center
is
everything
clean,
lamppost
painted
roads
and
pavements
swept,
etc
the
boscon
roads
and
pavements
are
dirty
and
never
seem
to
be
clean,
well
sally.
You
know,
first
of
all,
thank
you
for
noticing
the
improvements
in
in
bournemouth
town
center.
That's
really
it's!
A
It's
been
a
real
area
that
we've
tried
to
try
to
invest
in,
because
we
have
some
negative
feedback
and
we
don't
feel
we've
quite
got
there.
Yet
we
feel
we're
on
a
journey
around
around
bournemouth
and
our
other
town
centres.
But
I
appreciate
you
noticing
that
that's
been
positive.
We
we
have
ambitious
plans
to
renew
bosca
and
the
public
realm
there
and
we've
just
secured
what,
over
a
year
ago,
22
million
pounds
of
government
funding
for
regeneration
in
boston
as
part
of
the
town's
fund
project.
A
A
We
had
the
globe,
you
know
in
boston
over
the
weekend,
so
it
really
feels
like
there's
a
there's,
an
undercurrent
of
really
positive
things
happening
in
boston,
which
we're
we're
delighted,
delighted
about
what
we've
done
in
terms
of
our
clean
and
greener,
safer
work,
and
he
said
probably
why
you've
noticed
it
more
in
in
the
town,
centers
paul
bournemouth
from
christchurch
town
centres
is
we
wanted
to
start
a
pilot
effectively,
so
we've
we've
gone
into
town
centres.
First,
to
do
exactly
what
you're
talking
about
lamppost
painted
we've
gone.
A
We've
done
a
street
audit
effectively
where
we've
looked
at
all
the
things
that
are
there
and
what
that
needs
to
be
replaced,
taken
away
or
painted
etcetera.
So
that's
been,
it's
been
really
quite
successful
and
it's
been
a
significant
amount
of
extra
work
for
our
our
our
colleagues
to
actually
our
colleagues
to
do
that.
We're
now
looking
at
how
we
can
roll
that
out
across
the
conibation.
So
we've
got
something
that
works.
We
can
prove.
We
prove
it
works.
A
A
Thank
you
very
much
for
your
question.
We
do
note
it
more
work
is
coming
both
long
term
regeneration
in
boston
through
through
the
town's
fund,
but
also
as
we
roll
out
our
cleaning
green
and
safer
work
into
outside
of
our
core
town,
centers.
Okay,
so
let's
go
to
question.
Okay,
we've
got
an
anonymous
one:
why
is
grass
cutting
maintenance
not
been
carried
out
in
the
east,
boston
cemetery
and
will
regular
grass
cutting
now
come
in?
A
D
A
D
Yeah,
I
think
it's,
it
is
a
detailed
answer
as
well,
so
the
bereavement
care
team
obviously
take
a
great
deal
of
pride
in
delivering
a
range
of
services
to
grieving
families
at
their
greatest
time
in
need.
The
management
provision
of
graves
internment
of
ashes
and
maintenance
of
our
nine
cemeteries
is
all
delivered
in
internally
by
designated,
bereavement
range
maintenance
teams.
At
present,
those
teams
continue
to
experience
really
high
demand
for
internment
of
ashes,
which
is
severely
restricted
during
the
pandemic.
D
So
but
that's
the
kind
of
the
general
answer,
I
suppose
so
it's
about
managing
the
resource
that
we
have
to
to
deliver
that
service
boscombe
cemetery
in
particular,
is
currently
about
fifty
percent
cut.
So
that's
the
main
entrances
there's
signs
to
the
main
roads
and
areas
in
which
recent
burials
and
nintendo
bearers
they've
all
been
recently
cut.
So
work
on
site
remains
ongoing
to
try
and
catch
up
and
reach
all
those
other
areas.
D
A
Great
thanks,
martin!
Thank
you.
Thank
you
very
much
for
for
that
question.
Okay.
So
let's
go
to
your
next
question
now:
question
about
violent
crime
and
so
from
harry
p.
There
are
more
violent
crimes
in
the
area
by
the
day,
so
I'll
I'll
bring
kelly
until
just
in
a
second
on
this
who's,
our
director
in
in
charge
of
community
we've,
we've
done
a
lot
of
work.
It's
been
really
interesting.
Working
with
the
new
he's
been
in
place
just
over
a
year
now:
police
and
crime.
A
Commissioner,
david
sidwick,
so
david
stood
on
a
a
platform
around
tackling
antisocial
behavior.
So
then,
when
we
came
in
as
an
administration,
just
before
that
and
made
you
know
clean
agreement
safer,
a
real
prior
priority
error
for
us
we're
actually
seeing
some
real
benefit
from
that
really
joined
up
working
with
with
the
policemen
brilliant
operation
last
summer.
With
the
you
know,
you
know
in
terms
of
our
summer
response
as
well,
so
from
from
our
perspective,
we
feel
we're
really
start.
E
Thanks
drew
yeah,
I
mean.
Obviously
violent
crime
is
a
is
an
issue
that
is
incredibly
it's.
You
know
a
terrible
impact
when
it
happens
on
in
terms
of
the
individuals
involved,
and,
of
course,
we
understand
that.
That's
a
huge
concern
for
our
our
communities,
obviously
in
terms
of
dealing
with
crime
police,
would
take,
would
take
the
lead
in
terms
of
that,
but
as
a
local
authority
we're
also
incredibly
active
and
working
to
support
the
work
of
the
police.
E
One
of
my
key
areas
of
responsibility
is
community
safety,
and
we
have
a
community
safety
team
who
are
involved
in
considering
what's
happening
out
there
in
terms
of
all
sorts
of
different
crime
and
disorder
and
antisocial
behavior
monitoring
levels
of
violent
crime.
I'm
really
looking
to
work
with
our
multi-agency
partners
to
understand
the
root
causes,
and
what's
beneath
that,
so
that
we
can
take
a
an
approach
of
early
intervention
and
prevention
of
those
of
those
issues.
So
we
work
with
the
community
safety
partnership,
which
is
a
partnership
of
statutory
agencies.
E
The
council
lead
that,
and
are
there
from
a
multi-disciplinary
sort
of
you
know,
set
of
departments.
Are
there
so
you'll
have
housing
you'll?
Have
my
teams
around
communities
you'll
also
have
drug
and
alcohol,
mental
health,
children's
and
education
really
kind
of
multifaceted
kind
of
approach
to
really
looking
at
what
the
issues
look
like,
as
well
as
other
statutory
partners,
health,
probation,
police
fire
they're
all
there
to
consider
how
we
can
work
together
to
resolve
these
issues.
E
So
we
take
an
evidence-led
approach,
but
we're
really
looking
as
a
as
a
community
safety
partnership
to
enhance
the
work
that
we
do
around
getting
out
there
and
talking
to
our
communities
about
these
really
wicked
and
complex
issues
that
we
see.
So
that's
a
really
important
part
of
the
focus
and
and
tackling
violent
crime
in
all
its
form.
All
its
forms
is
a
priority
for
the
csp,
but
I
would
also
just
want
to
add
in
terms
of
the
work
and
building
on
what
drew's
already
said.
We
have
a
14,
strong,
csas
team.
E
I've
had
investment
in
that
over
the
last
couple
of
years
and
this
additional
investment
of
six
hundred
thousand
pounds
worth
of
new
investment
going
into
recruiting
new
csas
officers
and
also
providing
security
patrols
out
in
our
town
centres,
particularly
around
our
our
seasonal
response
and
our
response
to
the
really
busy
periods
that
we
see
throughout
the
summer.
So
you
know
really
making
sure
that
we're
promoting
public
safety
and
connecting
everybody
together
to
deal
with
that.
The
only
thing
I'd
also
just
want
to
mention
is
cctv.
E
We
know
that
cctv
not
only
makes
people
feel
safer
when
they're
out
there
in
our
town,
centers,
but
also
prevention
and
detection
of
crime.
Cctv
is
absolutely
critical
to
that.
So
there's
been
a
significant
amount
of
investment,
not
just
in
additional
cctv
across
bcp
as
part
of
the
cleaner,
greener,
safer
programme.
There's
also
been
additional
investment
in
enhanced
monitoring,
so
we
now
have
24
7
monitoring
across
the
whole
of
bcp.
E
We
did,
whereas
we
didn't
have
that
previously
and
also
it's
often
understated,
but
the
quality
of
the
images
that
we
have
through
cctv
really
help
us
to
detect
crime
and
and
to
prevent
and
to
be
able
to.
Usually
it's.
Our
kind
of
you
know
the
eye
and
the
sky
in
terms
of
real
time
and
what's
happening
so
there's
been
a
significant
amount
of
investment
to
to
enhance
our
imaging
and
really
help
us
from
an
operational
perspective.
A
Great
thanks
kelly
there's
a
huge
amount
of
work
going
on
there.
If
I
just
explain
effectively
by
csas
officers,
we
mean
effectively
officers
employed
by
us
as
a
council,
but
they
have
some
pleasing
powers
giving
given
to
them.
So
it's
a
way
that
we
can
really
be
quite
directional
in
terms
of
that
that
resource
so
you'll
see
them
walking
around
in
in
uniform
with
community
safety.
You
know
officer
across
across
their
their
uniform.
A
We
we've
as
kelly,
says:
we've
got
some
in
we're
getting
we're
getting
loads
more.
We
think
it
really
works
and,
and
people
really
report
they
like,
seeing
that
uniform
presence
on
the
street
so
kelly's
doing
some
great
work
nationally
leading
in
that
area
and
we're
really
proud
of
what
we're
able
to
do
so.
Okay,
but
harry,
thank
you
for
your
question
and
you
know,
there's
a
there's
always
more
to
do.
A
Right
come
on,
let's
go
to
julian
deadman
now,
so
we've
got
a
question
about
road
sweeping
so
there's
a
lack
of
road
sweeping
drain
clearing
and
it's
so
detrimental
highway
infrastructure
that
is
counter
productive.
Recently,
the
roadway
winston
avenue
it
literally
exploded
after
heavy
rain
because
of
the
roadside
drain
was
blocked.
The
high
cost
of
repairs
must
impact
other
budgets.
When
will
the
council
attend
to
this
widespread
problem
and
don't
divert
their
efforts
away
from
the
seafront
and
pull
apart
again?
A
You
know
you
know
we
thank
you
for
noticing
what
we
are
doing
in
terms
of
trying
to
activate
and
provide
many
more
facilities
down
on
the
seafront
and
in
paul
parker.
Anybody
particularly
paul
park
and
he's
not
been
there
recently,
it's
fantastic
but
julia's
point
is
around
roadsides
sweeping
and,
and
the
knock-on
of
that
so
probably
one
for
one
for
simon
simon
to
come
in
on
yeah
simon
one,
for
you.
B
Yeah,
thank
you
very
much
for
raising
this
one
really
important
one
and
to
give
you
some
ideas
of
scale.
There
are
around
58
60
000
road
trains
across
bcp,
and
there
is
an
active
program
involving
four
gully
tankers,
trying
to
keep
those
clever
and
keep
on
top
of
those.
The
particular
incident
that
happened
in
winston
avenue
was
it
wasn't
directly
related
to
the
the
rogue
galleries,
the
actual
surface
water
main
blocked,
and
we
assisted
our
colleagues
with
wessex
water
was
investigation
and
repair
to
that.
B
One
well
actually
committed
to
street
cleaning
programs
and
maximizing
use
of
resource
that
we
do
have
developing
emptying
schedules
and
trying
to
adjust
those
to
reflect
the
seasonality
of
the
service,
so
things
like
leaf,
fall,
pine
needles
and
then
those
types
of
things
which
impact
on
the
success
or
or
failure
of
the
surface
water
system.
If
I
may,
as
well
just
pick
up
on
a
comment,
that's
made
earlier
around
recruitment,
it
is
an
area
we
do
struggle
to
recruit
to.
B
A
A
I
mean
what
in
particular
I
know,
we've
had
some
really
great
feedback
from
christchurch
christchurch
was,
was
had
a
significantly
less
investment
and
had
less
less
road
sweeping
historically
one
of
the
first
things
we
did
was
level
that
up
so
now,
that's
at
the
same
level
across
bournemouth,
christchurch
and
paul.
But
julian,
thank
you
for
your
question.
We
we
can
and-
and
should
you
know,
try
now
raise
that
bar
again
and
go
further.
A
Okay
got
a
question
from
chris
evans.
Then,
why
are
the
local
parks?
Grass
not
cut
anymore?
Poor
is
a
disgrace
overgrown
jungle,
stopping
children,
adults
alike,
enjoying
outdoor
space.
I
don't
agree
with
the
with
your
analysis
of
you
know
where
we
are
on
on
that
chris.
I
think.
There's
some
elements.
You
know
we're
letting
growth
for
for
a
biodiversity
in
terms
of
parks.
D
D
There
is
a
link
we
can
share
for
the
grass
cutting
rounds,
so
you
can
find
out
when
it's
due
and
we're
on
track
on
that,
and
also
there
is
a
seasonality
to
that
as
well
in
terms
of
how
quickly
the
grass
is
growing
and
kind
of
active
times.
The
other
part
of
the
question
is:
we
are
making
a
concerted
effort
in
some
spaces
to
leave
areas
longer
as
grass
meadows.
This
helps
very
much
with
our
ecological
emergency,
as
well
as
the
the
carbon
footprint
of
the
council.
D
If
we're
having
to
cut
it
less
we're
not
using
mowers
and
traveling
as
much
but
in
terms
of
wildlife
having
the
long
longer
grass,
especially
around
trees
and
as
kind
of
connectivity
across
our
sites
linking
to
our
nature,
reserves
is
absolutely
vital
in
in
in
trying
to
help
our
wildlife
recover,
especially
our
pollinators
and
kind
of
the
insects
and
invertebrates.
So
it's
a
dual
message,
but
in
the
main
yeah
we
should
be
on
a
six
seven
week:
grass
cutting
rain.
D
A
Yeah,
thank
you.
Martin,
it's
really
helpful.
Actually,
we
we
had
a
wide
ranging
pilot.
Did
we
last
summer
where
we
were
trying
to
allow
more
areas
to
grow
and
you've
been
really
well
received
in
some
areas
and
not
unless
so
in
others,
so
we've
the
feedback
we've
had
from
people
has
been
really
important
as
we've
adapted
that
we
adapted
it
a
little
bit
back
into
last
year,
but
we've
done
it
differently
this
year,
as
well
because
of
that
feedback.
A
B
A
B
Beyond
the
land
columns,
but
some
of
the
other
street
furniture
and
assets
that
we
have
our
main
roads
are
on
a
five-year
inspection
cycle,
I'm
taken
by
an
arbor
or
crotch
officer
and
when
they
do
that
they
will
arrange
dead
wooden
crown.
Lifting
and
removal
of
foliage
around
important
important
pieces
of
infrastructure
such
as
street
lighting,
gravel
hill
is
due
inspection
this
coming
autumn.
So
hopefully
the
issues
that
being
raised
there
today
will
get
picked
up
as
an
interim.
B
In
any
case,
our
highway
inspectors
are
always
looking
for
immediate
tree
defects,
so
if
they
spot
something
which
is
of
concern
or
of
danger,
they
will
raise
that
with
our
agricultural
team
and
hopefully
arrange
the
necessary
work
but
yeah
to
give
some
reassurance
gravel
hill.
In
particular,
we
looked
at
this
coming
autumn.
A
Great
thank
you.
Thank
you
very
much,
simon
and
really
helpful.
So,
let's
go
to
a
question
now
from
fanny
glenn
glennon.
The
council
declared
a
climate
emergency
three
years
ago,
but
you
haven't
seen
seen
action
sea
level
rises
with
a
critical
impact
here
and
we'll
have
no
by
2040,
which
means
no
tourism.
When
can
we
start
to
see
some
action?
Biodiversity
crisis,
massive
declining
insects,
what
moe
roadside
verges
et
cetera
and
trim
hedges
during
bird
nesting
season?
Thank
you
a
really
really
interesting
and
important
question.
Thank
you.
A
Thank
you
very
much
for
it.
So
I
think
we've
heard
a
little
bit
about
what
we're
doing
in
terms
of
mowing
roads.
Roadside
verges
we're
doing
some
of
it
in
in
in
more
prominent
areas,
we're
actually
letting
it
grow
where
we
can
do,
and
that
is
about
biodiversity
and
biodiversity
improvements
there.
So,
in
terms
of
the
the
climate
emergency
more
more
generally,
we're
actually
doing
a
huge
amount,
and
perhaps
I'll
just
run
through
some
of
the
things.
A
Now
I
mean
as
an
administration,
we
that
the
previous
administration
cut
all
of
the
money
for
climate
and
climate
emergency.
We
put
it
back
in.
We
then
doubled
it
and
then-
and
now
we've
made
it
permanent,
so
the
council
has
actually
got
a
double
amount
of
budget
for
for
climate
action
and
we
vent
in
our
last
budget.
In
february
we
created
a
20
million
pound
green
futures
fund,
so
that
is
20
million
pounds
of
cash.
A
We
have
to
invest
in
tackling
the
climate
agenda
head-on
and
you
know
with
spearheading
plans
to
reach
the
council's
goal
of
carbon
neutrality
by
2030
that
that
green
futures
on
20
million
pounds
about
is
that
action?
It's
not
about
hot
air?
It's
not
about
talk,
it's
about
doing
things
so
we're
effectively
through
that
leading
the
country
in
terms
of
that
level
of
level
of
commitment
to
it.
A
I'm
really
really
proud
that
we've
we've
all
signed
up
to
the
climate
and
ecological
emergency
and
what
we've
done
as
administrators
put
money
and
money
behind
that,
and
not
just
talk
so
lots
of
initiatives
underway
to
reduce
our
carbon
footprint,
including
energy-saving
projects.
In
our
public
buildings,
we've
secured
some
some
salex,
which
is
government
funding
to
the
public
sector
to
to
improve
energy
efficiency.
A
We've
got
an
active
fleet
replacement
plan
to
to
green
our
fleet
and
by
that
it
means
our
our
trucks
effectively
and
our
refuse
trucks
and
and
other
fleets
we've
huge
investment
in
an
active
travel
investment
we're
the
first,
I
believe,
we're
the
first
to
come
forward
with
biodiversity
net
gain
policy
being
developed
so
again
leading
the
country
in
terms
of
hardwiring
biodiversity
into
our
into
our
planning
system.
Massive
investment
in
green
spaces.
A
A
B
B
A
Please
send
please
send
ideas
in
to
us,
and
but
you
know,
maybe
we
need
to
communicate
better
and
perhaps
a
session.
One
of
these
sessions
on
climate
would
be
would
be,
would
be
useful,
but
really
thank
you
ever
so
much
for
your
question
and
right
we're
getting
towards
the
end
of
this
part
of
the
session.
Now
so
apologies.
I
probably
answered
some
of
the
questions
in
in
too
much
detail.
We'll
do
we
go.
We
go
to
one
more
question
here
and
any
questions
we
haven't
answered,
we'll
we'll
come
back.
A
Perhaps
I
could
go
to
nicola
councillor
green,
clean
up,
bournemouth
square
and
town.
Don't
look
good
that
doesn't
look
good
for
tourists
or
people
who
live
here
and
also
appear,
which
is
interesting
because
we've
just
been
told
bournemouth's,
looking
great
and
the
seafront's
looking
great.
So
so
we're
getting
some
things
right,
but
all
of
a
nicola.
Perhaps
she
could
shed
some
light.
C
Absolutely
yes,
I
mean,
I
think
we
did
all
recognize
that
bournemouth
town
centre
needed
a
bit
of
tlc
as
we
came
out
of
covert.
It
said
you
know
it's
common
across
the
country,
but
certainly
we
recognized
it
here
in
all
our
three
main
town
centres
and
that
kind
of
really
drove
our
thinking
on
on
the
cleaner,
greener,
safer
pilot.
So
we
put
some
money
and
we've
achieved
some
deep
cleans
and
that's
been
particularly
around
footwear.
C
Subways
we've
supplemented
the
team
with
two
additional
full-time
cleansing
staff
we've
put
in
35
new
public
literatures.
These
things
matter,
we've
been
smartening
up
the
road
network,
the
railings,
the
bollards,
the
lamppost.
As
was
noted
in
that
previous
question,
so
much
activity-
and
you
know
it
is
beginning
to
make
an
impact,
but
we
all
acknowledge
that
you
know
there
was
quite
a
lot
to
do
as
with
the
other
town
center
pilots.
C
We
work
really
really
closely
with
business
improvement
districts
and
those
are
the
the
local
business
networks,
so
they're
telling
us
what
what
their
particular
needs
and
priorities
are,
and
working
so
closely
with
them.
We're
able
to
bring
about
that
sustained
improvement
that
the
residents,
the
businesses
and
the
visitors
and
alike
are
looking
for.
We
do
know,
and
I
think
we
have
to
acknowledge-
that
begging
and
street-based
anti-social
behavior
are
a
real
concern
for
all
and
they
do
impact
on
people's
perceptions
of
how
safe
they
feel
in
the
town
centres.
C
So
we
work
really
really
closely
with
those
experts
at
mungo's
to
address
the
root
causes.
Some
of
those
very
complex
root
causes
for
the
individuals
concerned,
at
the
same
time
we're
taking
a
really
robust
approach
to
enforcement
to
ensure
that
everybody
is
safe
to
enjoy
our
town
centers
and
then
just
you
know.
A
Yeah
absolutely
thank
you.
Thank
you
very
much,
nicole
right.
We
really
do
need
to
close
that
section
off
now.
So
can
I
just
please
thank
kelly
martin,
simon
and
and
nicola
for
their
for
their
support.
Today,
any
of
the
questions
have
been
asked
that
we
haven't
got
to
live
we'll
get
back
to
you,
we'll
get
back
to
you
on
with
it
with
an
answer,
but
we're
going
to
move
now.
We've
got
I've
just
actually
had
a
look.
A
B
A
A
B
A
Until
I
won't
read
the
whole
question
because
we've
got,
we
bring
it
up
on
screen
and
I'll
try
and
answer
it
a
couple
couple
of
things
all
right,
so
so
we've
we
put
back
in
the
park
and
ride
system
because
we
as
part
of
our
seafront
response,
so
that
and
that's
working
well
in
in
king's
park.
I
do
kings
park.
I
do
see
your
point
around
how
you
can
make
that
more
of
a
hub.
You
know
with
electronic
vehicle
charging
points
and
as
a
real
positive.
A
What
we
wanted
to
do
was
put
something
in
quickly,
and
so
we
had
so
we
had
it
there
test
out
test
how
well
it
was
how
it
worked.
How
well
used
it
was,
and
then
we
can
work
out
a
longer
term
plan
about
whether
we
want
to
do
that
permanently.
If
we
did
it
permanently
how
we
would
support
that
with
other
facilities,
we're
particularly
keen
in
not
just
park
and
ride,
but
in
terms
of
building
a
transport
hub.
A
If
you
look
at
paul
town
center
and
what
some
of
the
things
we're
trying
to
look
in
and
potentially
acquire
there,
it
was
a
real
opportunity
to
create
you
know
a
a
you
know:
car
parking
space
train
station
bus
station
effectively
where
we
can
then
wrap
around.
All
of
that-
and
I
know
those
plans
that
we're
looking
at
do
absolutely
overlay
electronic
vehicle
charging
points
and
and
and
and
that
we've
got
a
pool
town
center
plan
coming
through
soon.
So
it's
not
just
about
the
bournemouth.
A
It's
also
about
paul
as
as
well
in
that
in
terms
of
electronic
charging
points,
and
we've
got
us
a
large
project
going
at
the
moment
where
we're
working
at
how
we
can
deploy
at
pace
and
scale.
But
there's
there
are
issues
around
the
lamppost
charging
and-
and
you
know
effectively
where
the
right
place
of
that
is,
but
we
are
coming
forward
with
with
an
ev
charging
plan
shortly
and
councillor
mike
mike
green,
I
believe,
is,
is
leading
on
it
so
to
watch
your
space.
A
I
agree
with
you,
we
we
we're
on
it
and
we
will.
We
will
look
to
do
more
of
that.
Going
forward
aid?
Okay,
I'm
not
actually
going
to
answer
the
question.
Some
of
the
questions
have
been
answered
on
cleaning
grid
safer,
because
I
think
we
spent
a
chunk
of
time
on
that,
but
we
will
get
back
to
you:
offline,
okay,
fine,
okay,
so
lee
atkins,
atkins
1248.
When
are
you
going
to
stop
these
idiotic
cycle
lanes
and
actually
listen
to
residents
and
and
not
go
against
them?
A
Lee
thanks
thanks
for
the
question,
because
it's
got
a
slightly
different
different,
take
on
it.
What
we're
trying
to
do
with
the
cycle
lanes
so
bournemouth,
christchurch
and
paul
is,
I
think,
the
third
or
fourth
most
congested
part
of
the
country.
So
we've
got
a
real
problem
and
it's
not
going
away.
It's
not
going
away
anywhere
and
what
we
need
to
do
is
to
make
sure
that
people
who
want
to
drive
and
need
to
drive
have
the
ability
to
do
so.
A
So
so
it's
trying
to
support
motorists
to
to
be
able
to
travel
and
use
our
road
system.
So
what
would
we
actually
saw
with
the
barrel
situation?
So
more
people
can,
if
you
use
some
of
their
trips
for
for
walking
and
cycling,
that
takes
cars
off
the
road,
which
means
we
can
the
rest
of
us.
Drivers
can
can
use
the
roads
more
more
often
than
and
less
congested.
So
we
know
we
know
their
work
in
terms
of
listening.
A
This
is
exactly
what
we
have
done,
so
we
had
a
previous
administration
that
came
in
a
little
bit
more.
We
we
felt
it
was.
We
know
best
approach
that
they
were
giving
we've
stopped,
that
we've
asked
local
wall
councillors
what
they,
what
they
feel
to
really
feed
in
on
our
active
travel
schemes
and
wherever
ward
councils
agree,
they
shouldn't
happen.
We
stop
them
so
really
listening
to
to
to
local
residents
and
local
voices.
A
You
know
that's
a
proven
fact
we're
trying
to
put
cyclones
in
to
support
people.
You
know
your
travel,
your
choice
and
the
ones
we've
got
in,
you
know
being
successful.
We
keep
wanting
to
learn
and
listen.
So
please
do
feedback.
You
know
where
it's
working
well
and
where
it
isn't
working
well,
but
lee.
You
know
we
need
to
find
ways
of
getting
people
who
want
to
walk
and
cycle.
You
know
off
the
road,
so
the
people
who
need
to
use
the
cars
and
want
to
use
cars.
A
You
know
I've
got
a
two-year-old
and
a
four-year-old,
as
I
mentioned.
You
know
it's
very,
very
difficult
for
me
to
to
to
cycle
everywhere.
So
you
know,
let's
make
sure
that
people
who
can
cycle
when
I
can
cycle
when
I'm
going
on
my
own.
But
not
my
cars,
comes
off
the
road,
so
you
know
people
who
need
to
use
the
roads.
Words
can
do
so
lee
get
your
question.
Thank
you
and
I
promise
you.
We
are
listening
to
to
the
feedback,
both
ward
councillor
and
you
know
local
residents
as
well.
A
A
So
one
of
the
things
we're
trying
to
invest
in
is
actually
the
the
look
and
feel
of
them
effectively
some
of
these
space
and
and
and
that
both
includes
a
multi-story
carol
parks,
but
also
we're
looking
at
a
project
which
future
places
are
are
leading
on
in
paul.
I
think
it's
just
chapel
lane
effectively
where
we're
going
to
revamp
both
the
aesthetic,
but
also
the
usability
of
some
of
our
car
parks.
So
we
are
looking
at
doing
doing
more
of
this.
Your
questions
more
specifically
about
disabled
parking.
A
So
so
we,
you
know
I'll,
take
that
away
and
actually
ask
the
team
whether
we've
what
feedback
we're
getting
about.
You
know
the
amount
of
disabled
parking.
We've
got
we're,
certainly
not
taking
any
away.
We've
actually
got
more
parking
spaces
across
the
connection
than
historically,
because,
where
we've
been
replacing
building
on
some
surface
car
parks
we've
often
replaced
with
with
some
more
multi-storey
spaces.
So
so
we're
not
we're
trying
to
put
more
parking
spaces
in
whilst
being
aware
of
how
the
how
the
car
and.
B
A
A
Okay,
we've
got
a
question
which
I'm
not
going
to
get
read
out
because
because
it's
by
somebody
who've
already
been
answered,
but
about
the
the
air
show,
if
you
want
to
reduce
pollution
and
stop
the
air
show
well,
don't
agree.
You
know.
We
think
that
the
air
show
is
so
well
loved
and
by
by
everybody
it's
a
massive.
A
You
know
positive
for
our
tourism
and
how
happy
people
were
when
we
came
back
last
year,
so
we've
got
the
air
show
coming
we're
going
to
support
that
again
what
we
are
doing,
as
I
said
before,
we're
putting
20
million
pounds
into
in
into
cleaning
green
and
safe
and
we've
doubled
our
our
revenue
budget
as
well.
So
we
think
you
should
do
both.
It
shouldn't
be
a
choice
between
the
environment
and
you
know
in
the
environment
and
the
leisure
and
tourism
we
should.
A
A
A
Okay,
you've
got
a
question
from
from
sue,
heridge1251
come
and
have
a
look
at
summerford.
I've
messaged
you
about
denying
kids
the
green
space
outside
the
home
to
play
on.
I
think
that's
in
relation
to
the
the
green
specific,
the
cutting
strategy.
You
know
the
the
biodiversity
strategy
where
we've
let
some
grass
grow.
We
we've
said
you
know
we
listen
to
residents
in
in
some
areas
and
we
we've
cut
that.
We've
cut
that
back
so
where
we
think
it
is
play
space
which
we
bringing
it
back
to
play
space.
A
So
what
we're
also
doing-
and
I
will
you
know
and
again,
my
email
address-
is
drew.miller
at
bcpcouncil.gov
dot
uk,
if
there's
a
specific
area,
but
you
feel
we
still
haven't
got
that
right
where
the
grass
is
still
too
high
and
it
should
be
a
play
space.
Please
please,
let
us
know
about
it.
We
are
bringing
forward
a
a
play
strategy
where
we're
going
to
be
investing
both
this
year
and
putting
a
longer
term
planning
around
play
equipment
and
our
other
other
play
play
areas.
So
we
we
are
listening.
A
Okay,
susan
lennon,
12,
52,
the
toilets
and
paul
are
disgraceful,
broken
toilet
seat
and
disabled
one
no
locks
on
tours
and
ladies
staff
are
checking
clean.
What
message
we
send
into
visitors?
It's
the
same
football
okay
season.
Thank
you
for
that.
We
will
I'll
make
sure
that's
looked
into
our
toilets,
are
cleaned
cleaned
regularly
and
yeah,
so
we
should
be
aware
of
that.
B
A
We
there
was
a
half
a
million
pounds
put
into
the
budget
to
bring
six
toilets
back.
You
know
effectively
that
had
been
been
closed
and
that
that's
all
bar
one
is
has
been
completed.
Now
the
one
that
hasn't
been
completed
has
been
refurbished
and
while
we
work
out
a
longer
term
strategy,
so
all
of
those
six
are
now
in
place.
I'm
really
pleased
that
we've
been
able
to
deliver
deliver
that
more
toilets
into
pool.
A
On
top
of
that,
we've
got
a
effectively
three
new
toilets
coming
in
across
paul
in
in
new
areas
and
they're
effectively
the
toilets
have
been
used.
You
know
extensively
in
parts
of
the
continent
in
amsterdam,
self-cleaning
toilets,
so
we're
bringing
them
in
as
a
pilot
to
see
how
well
they
work
so
we're
putting
a
new
one
onto
paul
key
we're
putting
a
new
one
in
the
in
the
pool
bus
station
and
I
believe,
we're
looking
at
their
sites
in
in
ashley
road
as
well.
A
So
so,
on
top
of
the
six
that
have
already
gone
in
and
been
refurbished,
then
we've
got
two
of
those
are
in
hamworthy.
I
remember:
we've
got
three
new
ones
going
in
on
top
of
that.
If
that
works
really
well,
if
those
three
new
ones
are
really
well
received,
then
we
will
be
having
a
really
ambitious
strategy
about
rolling
it
out
across
across
the
convention,
so
huge
investment
in
toilets
in
paul
but
susan.
A
I
really
appreciate
your
question
about
some
existing
ones
where
the
the
maintenance
hasn't
been
good
enough
and
then
we'll
specifically
go
and
go
and
make
sure
somebody
is
able
to
check
on
that
for
us
so
susan.
Thank
you.
Okay,
fine,
okay,
so
max
bold
b.o.w.d.
What
what
can
you
do
so
1254.?
What
can
you
do
to
improve
paul
as
we're
getting
more
visitors
here
after
the
pandemic
and
would
be
lovely
to
see
a
facelift
yeah
completely
completely
agree
max.
We
are
across
the
connotation
getting
more
visitors.
That's
that's
been
great.
A
For
for
the
economy,
paul
is
an
absolute
gem.
You
know,
we've
seen
the
key
increasingly
bustling
and
busy,
which
is
great.
We've
got
festival,
coast
live,
which
is
our
sort
of
events
and
entertainment
projects
we're
trying
to
put
across
the
connervation
to
encourage
more
of
that
effectively
paul
park.
Events
at
paul
park
as
well
through
festival
coast
live,
so
we
really
we're
trying
to
richly
overlay
some
activities
and
some
good
stuff
happening.
A
A
So
it's
a
massive
focus
for
us
max.
We
are
doing
a
lot
and
and
we're
looking
through
future
places
to
work
out
how
we
can
do
more.
So
you
know
on
the
key
there's
a
number
of
projects
coming
forward
over
the
next
few
months
on
the
key.
Hopefully,
we've
been
looking
at
that
whole
cafe
culture
piece
and
how
we
could
perhaps
use
our
futures
fund
to
to
invest
in
some
street
infrastructure
and
all
of
that
we've
got
a
plan
coming
in
for
the
it's
coming
shortly.
A
It
was
certainly
before
the
end
of
this
year
around
the
pool
town
center
north
bit.
You
know
the
heart
of
paul
by
you
know
the
lighthouse
lighthouse
cultural
quarter,
so
there's
a
huge
amount
of
work
going
in
in
paul
max,
and
you
know,
hopefully,
if
there's
any
bits
and
pieces
we're
not
doing
you're,
seeing
that
we
need
to
do
more
of
please
please
contact
us,
but
but
thank
you
for
your
question.
Max
okay,
patricia
porter
12
55.
B
A
A
We
have
actually
had
some
recycling
statistics
back
and
the
the
impact
of
not
having
this
is
by
no
means
saying
we
don't
want
to
do
it,
but
it's
just
encouraging,
but
our
recycling
rates
haven't
been
overly
impacted
by
by
the
lack
of
food
waste.
Apparently
it's
it's!
You
know
it's
been
quite
positive.
A
Okay,
fine!
Let
me
let
me
get
to
another
another
question:
okay,
okay,
fine,
some
more
detail
about
the
long
grass
which
we
can,
which
we
can
get
to
alison
bartlett
12
15,
I'm
loving,
seeing
the
wild
flowers
and
long
cross
virgins
in
some
areas
of
bcp.
Well
done.
I
love
the
compromise
on
keeping
play
areas
cut
and
having
a
small
space
in
corners
to
grow.
Also,
we
try
to
get
some
more
of
your
great
message
out
to
residents
on
why
this
is
a
good
thing.
Yeah,
and
actually
it's
really.
A
I
I've
picked
this
question
because
it's
it's
worth
it.
I
think
we
need
to
just
listen
to
both
sides
of
the
argument
and
there's
some
really
genuine
things.
A
question
a
minute
ago
about
you
know,
dogs
getting
ticks
effectively
on
areas
of
too
long
grass,
so
it
is
about
getting
a
balance
right.
We
haven't
got
it
yet
I'd
like
to
see
more
wilding
and
biodiversity,
but
we've
got
to
do
it
a
way
that
that
fits
with
with
with
the
community.
A
But
one
really
important
point
which
I
touched
on
in
the
earlier
part
of
the
the
question
session-
was
around
our
biodiversity
net
gain
paper.
So
what
this
does
is
is
is
hardwiring
and
biodiversity
to
planning.
So
as
people
are
coming
forward
with
with
planning
applications,
they
need
to
take
into
account
the
biodiversity.
So
so
we
know
we
are
literally
the
first
in
the
country
to
do
that,
so
we're
trying
to
get
the
balance
right.
You
know
alison
euresteen
from
some
of
you
have
a
questions
or
comments.
A
A
In
public
transport
to
free
us
up
from
the
fifth
worst
congestion
slot
and
pollution
yeah,
you
know
this
is
a
really
complicated
problem,
we're
putting
in
alongside
the
government
100
million
pounds
into
that
whole
act
of
travel
work.
So
we
are
enabling
more
people
to
to
walk
and
cycle,
but
you
know
that
does
help
as
well
in
terms
of
some
public
transport,
because
with
bus,
prioritization
and
bus
lanes
effectively,
and
so
there
is
very,
you
know,
significant
work
going
on
there.
A
I
think
your
questions
more
specifically
about
investing
in
in
in
in
the
bus
services
and
bus
companies.
We
are,
you
know,
interested
in.
You
know
trying
to
work
for
a
metro
system.
We've
got
a
number
of
localized
train
lines
and
we've
got
two.
Two
bus
companies
big
issue,
a
lot
less
people
using
public
transport
than
than
they
were
so
bus
companies.
Train
companies,
as
we've
seen
with
the
strikes,
are
struggling
financially,
so
I'd
encourage
people
if
they
can
to
use
them
more.
We've
got
a
in
it.
A
I
can't
announce
the
details
of
it
today,
but
I
know
it's
been
worked
on
a
really
innovative
scheme.
We're
trying
to
look
at
with
one
of
the
bus
companies
where
we
can
see
how
important
the
price
of
a
ticket
is
and
whether
we
could
potentially
support
some
key
routes
to
prove
if,
if
the
prices
were
cheaper,
more
people
would
use
them.
So
we're
trying
to
be
really
proactive
on
it
in
it's
that
big
infrastructure
piece
which
we
are
doing
now,
we're
trying
to
work
out
how
we
can
support
them.
A
It
really,
you
know,
there's
an
element
we
can
do
here
locally
and
we
will
do
we
work
in
partnership
with
the
bus
companies.
There's
a
bigger
bit
here
as
well
around
national
support,
because
you
know
this
is
such
a
big
problem
in
terms
of
trains
and
bus
companies
that
it
will
not
just
be
sold
by
us
locally,
but
we
are
trying
to
be
really
innovative
in.
So
thank
you
for
your
for
your
for
your
question.
Okay,
right,
let's
get
some!
A
I'm
gonna
jump
down
a
few,
a
few
questions
about
the
primarily
answered
questions
right
at
the
beginning:
okay,
so
stu
smith,
I
see
you
have
the
community
safety
officer
class
officers
involved
in
paul
and
they
do
an
amazing
job.
Sorry,
it's
101
pm
from
stew.
They
do
an
amazing
job.
There
was
a
rumor
that
they
were
coming
to
christchurch.
Why
haven't
we
gotten
here?
Yet?
Are
they
still
coming
to
us
stu?
A
I
think
you'd
have
heard
kelly
ansel
earlier
on
talk
about
the
investment
we
put
into
c-slas,
so
we've
got.
I
think
it's
15
now,
because
we've
invested
over
the
last
couple
of
years,
we've
just
put
in
600
thousand
pounds
of
more
investment,
so
we're
in
a
process
of
recruitment
of
those
officers
now
and
then
we
will
be
deploying
them
more
across
the
connection.
So
so
yes,
it
is,
is
our
intention
to
have
them
in
christchurch.
We've
heard
me
say
a
couple
of
times
today:
we've
got
an
issue
with
recruitment.
A
This
is
a
fantastic
opportunity
to
do
something
really
meaningful
for
your
communities,
and
you
know
stu
you're,
absolutely
right,
they've
been
so
well
received.
That's
why
we
keep
in
investing
in
them
and
the
police
are
really
pleased
as
well,
because
if
we're
able
to
put
some
resource
into
something
they're,
helping
us
more
more
as
well,
so
it's
it's
a
win-win.
A
We
need
more
people
who
want
to
do
it,
and
so,
if
anybody
would
like
to
listen
or
come
in
to
speak
to
us
about
a
potential
career
as
a
community
safety,
css
officer,
we'd
love
to
hear
from
them.
So
so
stu
we've
got
more
money
put
in.
We
are
recruiting
it's
quite
a
long
process
to
recruit,
but
we
haven't,
but
we
can't
we
haven't
recruited
enough
yet
so
we
need
to
find
more
people
to
do
it.
A
A
Vacant
high
street
shops,
okay,
so
I've
got
a
question
from
richard
perry:
106.
regarding
vacant
heist
and
street
shops.
Central
government
changes
provided
new
powers
to
local
councils.
Latest
articles,
a
post
about
backing
forced
auction
of
vacant
shops
will
accounts,
will
consider
working
with
third
parties
to
support
pop-up
shops
and
short-term
loans.
Yes
right,
okay,
yeah
richard
absolutely
it's
simple.
A
I
think
we've
seen
in
kingland
in
in
paul
how
well
that's
really
worked,
not
just
as
a
as
a
start-up
for
for
some
of
the
for
businesses
that
have
been
able
to
use
free
rent
for
two
years
in
those
facilities,
but
how
good
it's
been
for
the
community.
It's
created
a
real
hard.
You
know:
we've
got
a
guy
called
nigel,
brooks
counselor
nigel
brooks
who's,
leading
on
the
high
street,
rejuvenation,
sorry,
regeneration
and
yeah
we're
looking
at
ways.
A
A
You
know
we
think
that
the
hope
that
the
house
is
changing,
you
know
it's
more
experiential
people
go
for
different
types
of
shops
and
then
you
know
retail
is
changing,
but
we've
actually
got
some
great
footfall
numbers
in
in
some
of
our
high
streets
and
pools
actually
doing
really
quite
well
on
on
a
retail
frontage
as
well.
So
we
what
we
don't
really
want
to
see.
Is
these
shops
effectively
immediately
going
to
to
residential
when
actually
you
need
those
active
frontages
and
to
put
life
into
town
centers
so
richard?
A
Yes,
we
are
actively
looking
at
some
of
the
things
you're
talking
about,
and
you
know
if
it
feels
right
in
terms
of
regeneration.
We've
got
to
look
where
we
can
to.
You
know,
deploy
some
more
housing,
but
he
he
leads
for
future
places
work
for
us
and
they
are
absolutely
adamant
that
we
need
to
keep
short
frontages
and
active
frontages.
So
there
might
be
a
slight
miscommunicated
miscommunication
there
right.
Okay,
let
me
I've
gone
slightly
over
time.
I
do
apologize.
A
To
to
close
on,
I
don't
keep
answering
the
same
people's
questions,
so
let
me
find
something
else:
okay,
I've
got
a
question
for
our
enforce
for
use
of
bike
along
the
prom
during
the
summer,
114
from
allison
bartlett,
I'm
a
bike
rider,
but
there
are
people
that
ignore
the
ban
every
year
and
cycle
too
fast
and
it's
very
dangerous
need
to
be
better
managed
for
a
serious
incident.
I
agree
alison
uses.
I
think
I
think
I've
said
about
five
times
now.
A
My
children,
I've
got
a
beach
hut
and
you
know
the
one
thing
we
worry
about
is
effectively
the
speeding
cyclists
across
the
prom
in
in
in
the
summer
months,
when
it's
busy.
So
I
would
really
encourage
everybody
and
please
don't
use
the
site
of
a
prom
to
cycle
in
in
july
and
august.
There
are
other
routes,
you
know
we
do.
We
do
effectively
restrict
and
ban
cycling
in
between
ten
and
six.
I
believe
it
is
on
on
the
summer.
A
So
please
don't
use
the
prompter
cycle
in
in
the
summer
we
we
do
get
all
of
our
seafront
operatives
to
try
and
intervene.
It's
really
tricky
because
we
we've.
Actually,
you
know
asked
to
I
had
a
session
where
we
were
looking
at
what
else
we
could
put
in.
Could
we
put
in
you
know,
gates,
etcetera,
you
know
more
more
management
down
there
and
then
it's
difficult
because
of
any
access
that
everybody
else
needs
across
the
prom.
A
A
If
we
could
get
a
message
out
more
often,
but
that
it
is
not,
you
know,
allowed
to
cycle
on
the
prom
between
ten
and
six
in
the
in
the
july
and
august
months,
that'd
be
great
and
any
ideas
people
have
got
about
how
we
can
force
that
better
we'd
love
to
love
to
hear
them.
Okay,
guys
loads
of
questions
we
haven't
answered
we'll
get
back
to
them
today,
both
in
the
clean
agreement
and
safer
session.
A
Sorry,
not
today,
over
the
next
couple
of
days
and
and
in
this
section
we're
gonna
start
doing
these.
These
will
be
regular
now
these
these
sessions,
so
hopefully
some
of
the
we
will
get
through
some
backlog
and
then
we
will
go
forward
these
deep
dive,
the
sessions
at
the
beginning
and
then
the
the
half
an
hour
at
the
back
end
as
well
to
do
these
sessions
so
any
feedback.
A
A
About
this
session
really
keen
on
recruitment,
if
anybody
you
know,
has
ideas
around
people
who
might
and
be
interested
in
working
with
us
massive.
Thank
you
to
all
the
questions
massive
thank
you
to
the
team
who've
who
supported
the
early
session
as
well,
really
great
to
be
back
and
looking
forward
to
doing
it
again
in
the
next
session.
So
please
look
out
for
it
and
and
we'll
speak
to
you
soon.
Thanks
all
cheers.
