It opens up the possibility of creating a more useful and flexible community library space

Community hub activity space is essential. But this space can be made far more appealing, flexible and hirable by opening up a roof terrace on the adjacent new roof of the proposed ground floor extension. This is an essential enhancement which could be addedly cheaply at this stage, and would help make the activity hub a desirable community destination, especially if combined with a cafe.

Q5. Do you support the introduction of floorspace for the business hub and for co-working?

Support

Q6. Do you support the proposed approach to the external refurbishment and landscaping?

Neutral

While it has good points, the overall impact is less green than hoped.

Oppose

Tell us why you chose this answer?

There is already too much hard standing areas, better to keep a 'garden' area to soften the building at the back as well as the good design for the front.

Q2. What type of events and activities would you like to see provided in the new library space?

Youth activities such as table tennis, pool, desk based games with a programme of low cost youth entertainment. Strict rules about conduct and to discourage drug abuse.

Q6. Do you support the proposed approach to the external refurbishment and landscaping?

Neutral

Tell us why you chose this answer?

Very basic. Needs to be thought through to better advance the area. Not just a few trees and a bike stand

Q7. Please let us have any other comments:

Need to enhance the thermal efficiency of the building as a whole to passive house standards if possible so it will be an asset not a drain on the finite resources available. Spend the money now, not in the future maintenance and upkeep. DO not be short sighted.
