Consultation 2025

After one rejected planning application and appeal in 2020, Noah’s second application for planning is going to a Hearing. Originally set for 19 August 2025, GCC have rescheduled it to 16 September 2025. Ahead of speaking at this Hearing, Mount Florida Community Trust has been gathering the views of Mount Florida residents about what you would like to see on the site. 

The results are in! You can follow these links to read the summary report (2 pages) or the more detailed full report.

Short version: this community has a strong preference for keeping the green space whole, and using it for a wide variety of community-led activities. You gave hundreds of ideas focussed around growing, gardening, playing, movement and activity, sitting and socialising in the green space. Also many ideas for use of an indoor space for community connection and multigenerational mingling. We have shared these findings with our local Councillors and the Chair of the Planning Application Committee.

There were three ways to have your say:

1. Completing the short online survey

2. A paper or digital activity pack: Cover, information sheet, inspiration board, activity page.

3. Four pop-up consultation events around the community
