Actively manage our environment27 so that people live in surroundings that are kept pleasant through community action. This will entail keeping public spaces attractive and safe, reducing litter, fly-tipping, and pollution and managing waste better. We believe this is a priority because: A pleasant environment is intrinsically important to people in Essex: • People’s overall satisfaction with local public services is statistically correlated with views on their immediate living environment. This is a significant relationship that does not hold for most other services. • 32% of respondents to a NOP BVPI Survey 2003 said clean streets most needed improving (fifth place out of twenty one in the list). • Only 8% of respondents to the NOP BVPI Survey 2003 said that parks and open spaces need improving, but 44% mentioned activities for teenagers and 16% facilities for young children. People aged 18 to 34 tended to mention parks and young children together. • In the Spring 2004 Citizen’s Panel, a ‘cleaner, greener county’ emerged as a key priority for Essex residents, while ‘regeneration of run-down areas’ occupied fourth place in the list. Experience also shows that allowing public spaces to become unclean and defaced can attract anti-social behaviour and begin a downward spiral of physical and social decay. A majority of respondents (85%) to the autumn 2004 Citizens’ Panel Survey said that they were concerned about the impact their household has on the environment, with 35% considering themselves very concerned. Although 45% said they were doing as much as they could to help the environment already, 27% said they did not know what they could do to help. This level of concern about the environment generally offers an opportunity to support and develop stronger community action on living conditions. The Essex Community Strategy, which is based on extensive consultation, has priorities for ‘conserving our environment’. Xxxxx’s draft LPSA2 contains targets relating to this priority. This priority also contains a Mandatory Local Area Agreement Outcome. 27 Commitments relating to this priority are contained in the Community Strategies of all of Essex’s LSPs. Page3254
