Brent ACE (Action on the Climate Emergency) have convened the meeting that will include councillors and council officers as well as campaigners and community groups.   It is 6 years since Brent declared a ‘Climate and Ecological Emergency’. We all know that enormous changes are happening in our borough and its local neighbourhoods, and these are often controversial. People often feel left out of decision making or that their views are ignored. Meanwhile climate change and the loss of biodiversity accelerate.   Planning and regeneration are major issues locally, so ACE is holding a meeting devoted to that subject.   This is a chance to air your views at a meeting chaired by ACE.   The draft agenda will include: - Planning and trees, access to green space, reclaiming front and back gardens for biodiversity and drainage - Public consultation / involvement - Brent Local Plan review  MEETING DETAILS 7pm November 3rd We recommend trying the link beforehand in case of difficulty.
