<p>The proposal mentions: "(c) landscaping including <u>enhancements</u> to the St Ann's Hospital Wood and Tottenham Railsides Site of Importance for Nature Conservation (SINC)"</p>
<p style="font-weight: 400;">when they know perfectly well it should read "landscaping including destroying rare and valuable trees as well as tree canopy essential for coping with climate change."</p>

<p>As the world waits for global progress on Climate Emergency at COP27, Friends of St Ann’s Green Spaces are focusing on the regional and local scale. </p>
<p>We call for an urgent revision of St Ann’s New Neighbourhood development to address local, regional and national Climate Emergency, health, traffic and air quality policies. Hundreds of people have put their objections on the planning website, and over a thousand have signed <a href="https://www.change.org/p/green-oasis-under-threat-at-time-of-climate-emergency?recruiter=1278144327&recruited_by_id=b6e8bca0-3e5d-11ed-8669-c35d7464e75b&utm_source=share_petition&utm_medium=copylink&utm_campaign=petition_dashboard&lang=en-GB">StAGS petition</a>.</p>
<p>We urge the Greater London Authority (the current owners of St Ann’s development site), and Haringey Council's Planning Committee to listen to local concerns, and to place robust conditions on planning permission at St Ann’s, including: <strong> </strong><br/></p>
<ol>
<li><strong>Keep more of the tree canopy to reduce the adverse health impacts of</strong><strong><br/> Climate Emergency</strong></li>
</ol>
<p>Retain as many existing mature trees, hedgerow and tree groups as possible to reduce the adverse health effects of higher temperatures and air pollution. Keep the trees and hedgerow in new build gardens along the shared walls with Warwick Gardens and St Ann’s Road and ensure that new residents maintain them.</p>
<ol start="2">
<li><strong>Make St Ann’s New Neighbourhood a car-free development</strong></li>
</ol>
<p>Keep existing trees rather than removing them to make way for 106 new parking spaces. Support the health of local residents and users of the Hospital by making walking and cycling easier and reducing air pollution from local traffic congestion.</p>
<ol start="3">
<li><strong>Sustain local biodiversity</strong></li>
</ol>
<p>Retain existing tree and hedgerow corridors so that precious wildlife can travel from the railway line woodland, across the site and into our local area: we welcome the new north-south corridor. Carry out ecology surveys and ensure that contractors protect rare plant, insect and animal species. Review plans for new build green roofs, and ensure that they are maintained and remain effective for increasing long-term biodiversity.</p>
<ol start="4">
<li><strong>Recognise the value and rarity of many existing trees onsite and protect them</strong></li>
</ol>
<p>Ensure that the railway woodland Site of Local Importance for Nature Conservation is protected for the long term and accessible for local people. Add genuine Tree Protection Orders (TPO’s) on all trees in the Bevan Guide and others to be identified with StAGS.</p>
<ol start="5">
<li><strong>Apply the emerging policy in the Tree and Woodland Plan</strong></li>
</ol>
<p>With Haringey Friends of Parks Forum, we call on Haringey Council to apply its emerging policies in the Tree and Woodland Plan before its April 2023 launch. Part of the new Parks and Green Spaces Strategy and four years in the making, this long-overdue Tree and Woodland Plan should apply to St Ann’s New Neighbourhood development. In public consultation until 27 November, it includes provision for enacting and enforcing several of our key points in the context of future developments.</p>
<p>We endorse the emphasis of this Local Plan on the significance of tree canopy for mitigating the adverse health effects of high temperature:</p>
<p>‘The Haringey Climate Risk Map shows those parts of the borough most at risk from the impacts of climate change. There is an uncanny relationship with those areas with the lowest tree canopy cover in the borough.’ (Tree and Woodland Plan, Key Issues and Challenges.)</p>
<p>According to the canopy cover chart (source GLA 2018), St Ann’s ward has one of the lowest tree canopy figures: 18.7% as opposed to Crouch End at 32.9%, for example. This is even before the planned tree and canopy losses.<br/> <br/> <b>If you’re concerned about the price of tree and canopy loss and its connection with the effects of Climate Emergency in Haringey, it’s not too late to add your comments on the Council planning website</b> <a href="https://publicregister.haringey.gov.uk/pr/s/planning-application/a0i8d000002GJYXAA4/hgy20221833?c__r=Arcus_BE_Public_Register&tabset-3892f=2"><b><span>here</span></b></a></p>

<p>Haringey Council’s <span><a href="https://www.haringey.gov.uk/news/tough-action-pipeline-protect-mature-trees">press release</a></span> of 30 September 2022 does nothing to address our concerns. ‘Tough action’, it states, ‘is in the pipeline’ to put in place ‘a dedicated trees policy with a clear expectation of developers to retain and protect mature and veteran trees rather than fell or damage them’. This will come too late for 114 mature trees, 30 tree groups and 260.5m hedgerow at St Ann’s. Haringey’s promise of future action is at best vague, and at worst could be read as greenwashing.</p>
<p>The press release promises future consultation with residents on its trees policy. But local people were <u>never consulted</u> about tree losses at St Ann’s, despite Catalyst’s claims to be ‘putting nature at the heart of the development’. This makes a mockery of local co-design, and ignores the work of community groups struggling to make South Tottenham a greener place to live. If this devastating destruction goes ahead, it will represent the largest felling of trees for any recent development in Haringey. The Friends of St Ann’s Green Spaces petition on Change.org has generated nearly 1,000 protest signatures in just a few days, which demonstrates the strength of local feeling.</p>
<p>St Ann’s Hospital site is a green lung for South Tottenham – an Area of Deficiency in Access to Nature as defined in the 2016 <span><a href="https://www.london.gov.uk/sites/default/files/the_london_plan_2021.pdf">Mayor's London Plan</a></span>. It contains many mature and rare trees; the woodland area along the southern perimeter is a SINC (Site of Importance to Nature Conservation) and home to a rich variety of wildlife. Botanist David Bevan's 2015 review found that, “Some of the trees are more than 80 years old and many are rare in cultivation.”</p>
<p>The <span><a href="http://www.planningservices.haringey.gov.uk/portal/servlets/AttachmentShowServlet?ImageName=1676883">Arboricultural Impact Assessment (AIA) Survey</a></span>, submitted as part of Catalyst’s planning application, proposes a huge reduction in trees, including rare species, fruit trees and mature hedgerow on the 60% section of the site currently owned by the GLA. This will have a detrimental impact on air pollution (particularly from St Ann’s Road), and significantly reduce biodiversity. Most worryingly, the reduction in tree canopy combined with increased heat generated by the new housing and 106 parking spaces will intensify the impact of worsening London temperatures. St Ann’s ward tree canopy is well below Haringey’s target of 30% - see its new <span><a href="https://www.haringey.gov.uk/sites/haringeygovuk/files/parks_and_greenspaces_strategy.pdf">Parks and Green Spaces strategy</a></span>. The proposed green roofs and post-development planting of new trees will do little to ameliorate this. Housing is desperately needed, but not at the expense of green canopy in our climate emergency.</p>
<p>St Ann’s development proposals directly contradict Haringey Council’s own <span><a href="https://data.climateemergency.uk/media/data/plans/london-borough-of-haringey-ba0d66e.pdf">Climate Emergency declaration</a></span>, passed unanimously in 2019, which commits the council to achieving a net zero carbon borough. Trees are the ultimate carbon capture mechanism, and the felling of mature trees at St Ann’s will result in significant carbon release that <em><u>cannot</u></em> be replaced by planting new saplings. Renowned arboriculturist Russell Miller, says of Catalyst’s development plans:</p>
<p>‘the scale of tree and canopy loss is extraordinarily high. Given the climate emergency and record London temperatures in 2022, loss of canopy of this magnitude should lead to an automatic rejection of the design. People in London are dying from excessive heat and air pollution… All planning guidance in London is for increasing canopy cover.’</p>
<p>The Mayor’s London Plan <span><a href="https://www.london.gov.uk/sites/default/files/the_london_plan_2021.pdf">Policy G7, p. 329</a></span> directs boroughs to ‘protect and maintain London’s urban forest and woodland’, and to <em>retain</em> existing trees wherever possible. <span><a href="https://www.imperial.ac.uk/news/192448/plants-could-remove-years-carbon-dioxide/">Research</a></span> by Imperial College London demonstrates the importance of retaining complex tree ecosystems, and cautions that, 'poorly planned planting efforts can actually increase the amount of carbon dioxide (CO<sub>2</sub>) in the atmosphere and increase global warming.’ Catalyst’s proposals for <em>biodiversity offsetting</em> by extending the SINC woodland is deeply problematic: the reduction of overall canopy cover will result in a likely loss of biodiversity. The London Plan (Policy G6) recommends that actions to protect SINCs should include ‘the protection and conservation of priority species and habitats that sit <em>outside</em> the SINC network’. It also notes that ‘biodiversity offsetting is the option of last resort’.</p>
<p>A huge increase in UK woodland is required to meet net zero carbon emissions by 2050, as reported in the Committee on Climate Change’s <span><a href="https://www.theccc.org.uk/publication/2022-progress-report-to-parliament/">Report</a></span> to Parliament 2022. Haringey Council’s aim to plant 10,000 new trees by 2030, while admirable, will be too late. Carbon retention and sequestration does not occur for at least 10 years after trees are planted: retaining mature trees needs to be a priority.</p>
<p>In August 2022 St Ann’s became one of two new Low Traffic Neighbourhood’s for Haringey, and we are seeing significant improvements in air quality. But these benefits will be undermined if the St Ann’s development goes ahead. It is time for Haringey Councillors to take genuine responsibility for the future of Haringey’s residents, and to create a legacy of hope. St Ann’s Catalyst Housing development could and should be an exemplar of green planning and affordable housing. We ask you to reject this planning application.</p>

<p></p>
<p>The Mayor of London, Sadiq Khan, has today announced that <a href="https://www.chg.org.uk/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Catalyst Housing</a> has been selected as the development partner for the redevelopment of the St Ann’s Hospital site.</p>
<p>Catalyst’s plans for the site involve building 934 homes, with 50 of these affordable homes set aside for community-led housing, enabling local people to own some of the homes and making St Ann’s one of the largest community-led housing schemes in London. A search for the community organisation to take on these homes will be launched early in the new year.</p>
<p>The remaining affordable homes will be 60 per cent London Affordable Rent, 20 per cent London Shared Ownership and 20 per cent London Living Rent. Catalyst will offer Haringey Council the opportunity of purchasing half of the homes at London Affordable Rent for their housing portfolio. There will be key worker housing for NHS staff, with the Barnet, Enfield and Haringey Mental Health Trust able to make use of 22 London Living Rent homes for 10 years to ensure staff can be housed locally.</p>
<p>The new homes – ranging from family town houses to apartment blocks – will be designed by <a href="http://karakusevic-carson.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Karakusevic Carson Architects</a> and <a href="http://www.6a.co.uk/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">6a architects</a>. All homes will aim to meet or exceed London Housing Design Guide space standards and will be highly sustainable and energy efficient.</p>
<p>The scheme includes 10,000m2 of new and existing tree cover, and the existing Peace Garden is being tripled in size. New playground space will also be created. Heritage assets, including St Ann’s Victorian water tower, will be preserved. There will also be improvements to pedestrian and cycling infrastructure along St Ann’s Road to improve access across the site, including to Chestnuts Park.</p>
<p>Catalyst is a leading housing association that manages over 21,000 homes across London and the South East. They are developers of mixed-tenure neighbourhoods with a track record in estate regeneration.</p>

<p>It appears that specific trees are being removed after a health check by an arboriculturalist.</p>
<p>So everything is probably above board. But if there's someone who's more of a tree expert who can take a quick look, it might be just as well.</p>

<p>Do you have experience of developing social housing sites? Can you apply your negotiation and business planning skills in a community-led housing setting?</p>
<p>St Ann’s Redevelopment Trust (StART) is a Community Land Trust negotiating with the Greater London Authority and Haringey Council to secure genuinely affordable housing in perpetuity on the St Ann’s Hospital site in Haringey, London.</p>

<p>Crucially, you will also feel comfortable working in and appreciate the ethos of a volunteer-led community organisation. You will need to act as liaison between us and the major stakeholders in the development of the site and be able to interpret complex issues for us while also being steered strategically by the StART membership.</p>

<p>Salary £45,000 pro rata.</p>
