During the summer you [ebra] wrote to the office of the Secretary of State for Communities and Local Government giving your support to the making of a direction to bring under planning control the display of estate agents’ sale and letting boards in certain conservation areas in the centre of the city.
The Council has been informed that a hearing is to be conducted into the making of this direction, having received an objection to the proposal from the Brighton and Hove Estate Agents’ Association.
The hearing will be held at the Town Hall, Norton Road , Hove on Wednesday 9th March at 10.00.
The Environment and Community Safety Overview and Scrutiny Committee at
Brighton & Hove City Council has set up a Scrutiny Panel to conduct
a ‘Speed Reduction Review: An investigation into 20 mph speed
limits/zones’.
As part of the scrutiny process the panel is
keen to canvas opinion from a wide range of groups and organisations
about 20 mph speed limits and 20 mph zones. In particular, the panel
would like to hear the views of Neighbourhood Forums about the impact
of possible speed reduction initiatives in their area.
Please
could you contact me as soon as possible, but by no later than the 31
December if you would like to provide information and evidence for the
scrutiny panel to consider.
Many thanks,
Libby Young

Open letter to Council and the local councillors
Hello,
We are looking into the possiblility of overturning the council by law banning dogs from entering Bedford Square. as defined http://www.brighton-hove.gov.uk/index.c … t=c1195746
You may notice that in the top northern end, their is now a gap in the parking bay. The council must have decided that to make it easier for people to get in and out of the top gate (that people have complained about) they would make the gap and make a large bay for solo motorcylces.
Any comments on this?
Did the council decide the right thing?
It may appear we hate dogs.
Far from it. We are taking the council to task over a point that when we asked for dog bins to assist in reminding the fogetful few to clean up after themselves, they told us that dog bins would not be installed as dogs were not allowed.
After asking for a change in the rules, which they refused, we asked them to come along and advise people of the the fact and offer an alternative.
At least we dont follow people home and shove dog poo through their doors like a certain other square does!
Register your request for a change in the council law so that residents of Bedford Sqaure can responsibly walk their dogs in the square
This email was received to day with some strange comments.
Have you got any?
Do you know who and what caused this situation in the first place?
Dear Mr Mandeville
Further to your email
relating to Dogs in
I have visited the Square during the lunchtime period as suggested and witnessed two local residents bringing their dogs into the square, following a review of the interviews and circumstances both residents were issued with warning letters, informing them of the fixed penalty system and the concerns other local residents.
