Community Cohesion. An LRT down the middle of a highly populated EJ residential and business section of the corridor will create a physical obstacle creating a social barrier between communities north and south of University Avenue. Also, the Aurora St. Anthony neighborhood that was once separated in the 1960’s with the building of the adjacent freeway from the larger Historic African American Rondo community will once again be isolated and sandwiched in between two physical barriers, I-94 and the LRT University Avenue alignment. As a mitigation alternative, take a current revitalizing opportunity to transform the shame of a past transportation development misdeed and turn it into one of healing and restoration. Acknowledge, respect and take responsibility by apologizing for the destruction to the vibrant African American Rondo community due to the construction of I-94. Honor the fact that restoration is owed as a result of the demolishing of a combined 650 homes and businesses. Now, support the growing culturally centered revitalization vision that is supported within the 2006 District 8 Comprehensive Plan and dubbed as a “cultural heritage preservation destination.” Enact to redesign the Dale Avenue intersection and Bridge as a gateway to the heart of the Rondo community. Artistically depict the I-94 story and symbolize the reunification of divided souls. Support current efforts being designed by this community to heal the wounds of this past and create a community controlled Rondo Renaissance Community Restoration Trust Fund through the use of developer exactions, real estate tax transfers or extractions from parking or transit fares not only as an anti-gentrification tool but to help retain the character of the community and to help finance its re-development aspirations (i.e. cultural/history center, small business incubators and below market rate housing).
Community Cohesion. Deliver community cohesion through joint work with people of different faiths, cultures and ethnic backgrounds As part of this Local Area Agreement we have also negotiated a Reward Element. This identifies a number of priority areas where we have agreed to ‘stretch’ our performance. In practice this means that the Partnership will agree with Government that we will achieve levels of performance over and above that which we would normally expect to achieve i.e. the ‘stretch’. Eleven priority areas are identified and are summarised below. The full Reward Element is at Appendix A.
Community Cohesion. Deliver community cohesion through joint work with people of different faiths, cultures and ethnic backgrounds As part of this Local Area Agreement we have also negotiated our second Local Public Service Agreement (LPSA). The LPSA identifies a number of priority areas where we have agreed to ‘stretch’ our performance. In practice this means that the Partnership will agree with Government that we will achieve levels of performance over and above that which we would normally expect to achieve i.e. the ‘stretch’. Ten priority areas are identified, summarised below. The full LPSA is at Appendix A.
Community Cohesion. Manchester is proud of being a multicultural and diverse city. It is recognised nonetheless that different communities have different needs and these have to be met in ways that do not exclude or alienate others. Initiatives and action being taken through xxxx co-ordination, regeneration, safer neighbourhoods and community engagement are helping to build intelligence and understanding of communities. This in return is empowering communities to work with public and voluntary agencies to identify localised solutions to local problems and identify potential conflicts. Manchester’s approach is to ensure that the new challenges faced by migration and the potential impact on community cohesion are embedded into the activities delivering the Community Strategy. A Manchester Community Cohesion Steering Group (made up of public and voluntary sector representatives) is developing innovative work around welcoming new arrivals into the city, the development of a set of Mancunian values linked to building citizenship, a coherent approach to providing English for Speakers of Other Languages (ESOL) and translation provision and an early warning mechanism which enables the Partnership to identify potential tensions or challenges within communities or localities before they emerge. In addition, there are initiatives such as the development of Mancunian Agreements, which will be used as a tool for encouraging local people to be involved in improving their city or local area. At the same time these agreements will enable local people to work jointly with services deliverers in finding local solutions to difficult local issues. Outcomes from this programme will include: - • Improved understanding about the make up of our diverse population • Improved understanding of community cohesion • Benefits of diversity in the city maximised • Enhanced aspirations for communities and individuals • Increased sense of wellbeing and pride In order to keep climate change at a mangeable level over the next 12 years, the city needs to reduce its CO2 emissions by a million tonnes (current emissions are 3.3 million tonnes per year and rising). No city in the UK has a climate change strategy that is truly a citywide strategy. XXXX has agreed to establish an Environment Commission and a Climate Change Agency has been constituted as acting for the combined administrative area. A number of workstreams have been carried forward including an economic impact assessment to determine how we will minimis...
Community Cohesion. Reading Borough Council has a long history of promoting equalities and has various strategies in place with a real commitment to moving forward on community cohesion – a key element in reducing the uneven nature of social, economic and environmental well-being in Reading. A recent independent review of Community Cohesion and Equalities undertaken in 2006 presents many examples of good practice and partnership working in the town, with the Borough council and Reading 2020 partners investing significant resources into services that promote community cohesion. However, there are still a number of challenges and areas for improvement which have been highlighted during the consultation process. While many of the selected targets impact indirectly on community cohesion, the volunteering targets will make a particular contribution. The Reading 2020 Partnership’s aim for the environment is ‘to provide clean, attractive and diverse environments that will contribute to a better quality of life for everyone’ and to ‘deliver a wide range of services that together maintain, protect and enhance Reading’s natural and built resources and promote environmental awareness and responsibility across the community’. Reading’s environment will be seen in the context of an urban centre in the Thames Valley, responding to the sustainable development pressures in an area of growth. We see Reading as leading good practice in addressing the wider, longer-term impacts of economic activity both locally and globally. New development will be more sustainable and contribute positively to Reading’s environment, and to the wider needs of the community. New buildings will be well-designed and landscaped and incorporate best practice for water and energy efficiency. The waste we produce will be reduced, re-used and recycled as appropriate. Key issues for Reading include: Protecting the natural environment; Managing the built environment; Sustainable use of resources; Pollution and waste minimisation; Promoting environmental citizenship. Reading consumes vast amounts of energy derived from non-renewable fossil fuels and contributes to global warming through greenhouse gas / carbon dioxide emissions. As a result of climate change, Reading’s weather patterns are becoming more extreme, with less rainfall predicted during the summer. As a community we must all find ways to reduce energy consumption and to tap into sources of renewable energy. The Council is currently working with the Carbon Trust’...
