Tackling climate change

Don’t bin it - bring it to win it Fancy turning your old electrical items into a prize?

Cambridge City Council and FCC Environmental are offering the chance to win a Kindle e-reader or a Solio solar powered mobile phone charger when you recycle your used small consumer electronics.

We operate six banks at recycling points throughout the city for goods including old hairdryers, kettles, irons, electronic toys, DVD players, electric toothbrushes, and even old landline and mobile phones. Electrical products measuring 30cm by 30cm or less will fit in the specialist recycling banks, which are located at Sainsbury’s on Coldham’s Lane, the Beehive Centre off Coldham’s Lane, Waitrose on Hauxton Road, car parks on Arbury Court and Colville Road, and Tesco on Newmarket Road.

To enter our prize draw just attach the tag provided with this issue of Cambridge Matters to the item, and drop it into one of the banks by the end of February. There will be a monthly prize draw to win a Solio solar charger, and all entries will go into a final prize draw on 29 March to win a Kindle.

We’ll inform the winner by post, email or phone depending on your preference, and you can enter more than once if you have several items

- extra tags are available at council reception points.

The items will be sent to FCC Environmental, a company that specialises in dismantling old electronic goods and recycling any usable materials contained inside, including metals, gases, mercury, oil, plastic and glass.

Approximately 200 tonnes of small electrical items are put into black bins in Cambridge every year. By comparison, last year we recycled just over five tonnes. Please help us to recycle more by telling your friends, family and neighbours about the recycling banks and the competition.

Giving Christmas trees a second life Recycle your real Christmas tree at our dedicated site at Cherry Hinton Hall car park any time from Boxing Day to Sunday 20 January.

If you can’t make it to the recycling facility, you can chop your tree yourself and place it in your garden waste (green) bin or brown compost sacks. After using the bin, please make sure the lid can be fully closed. n

Keeping your bin cosy Items including food and garden waste can freeze to the inside of wheelie bins during cold spells, meaning they don’t empty properly when collectors tip the bin into refuse trucks.

You can help by wrapping your food waste in paper (newspaper will do, or you can buy paper food-waste bags from council receptions), lining the bottom of your bin with cardboard, and storing bins somewhere sheltered whenever possible. n

Working for a healthy, safe and enjoyable city

A new way to borrow Credit unions could be a better way to borrow than payday loan companies or doorstep lenders A credit union is a form of savings and lending club that offers small loans and charges lower interest rates than many banks or doorstep lenders. The unions can help stop people spiralling deeper into debt by not charging high interest rates over long payback periods normally associated with doorstep lenders.

Cambridge City Council is now promoting two credit unions – Rainbow Saver Anglia Credit Union and Cambridge City Credit Union.

The unions currently operate in Cherry

Hinton and north Cambridge, however the city council’s backing is enabling them to expand throughout the city. The unions are cooperatives, meaning their members run them and any profits are pumped back into the union to fund future loans.

The unions are currently seeking volunteers in other parts of the city to help with their expansion plans. People signing up will be asked to promote the unions in their local areas, help set up savings and loans, and collect weekly repayments. If you’d like to get involved contact the unions direct using the details listed. n

How does it work?

Credit unions adhere to Financial Services Authority (FSA) regulations, meaning your savings are guaranteed in the same way as by a building society, though you won’t earn interest on them.

According to the Money Advice Service, an independent financial advice service

established by the government, most unions require you to save a set amount before taking out a loan. The unions then take repayments out of the sum you normally save so you can continue to build up savings while repaying the loan.

There are usually no penalties for

Credit unions are prevented by law from charging more than 2% interest per month on a loan (or 26.8% APR). Please note the exact details of loan arrangements may vary depending on the union you choose. n

Council Tax Benefit update Get help Cambridge City Council is working on a replacement for Council Tax Benefit to meet new government legislation.

The change is part of government welfare reforms that require district councils to develop their own schemes to aid those who need help paying council tax.

Cambridge City Council is currently reviewing the results of a public consultation on how to proceed. Our aim is to develop a system of reductions that is fair and easy to understand. The new system will come into force in April 2013, which is when the government will abolish the current Council Tax Benefit, and our goal is to ensure people who are the least well off will continue to pay the lowest amount of council tax.

We will write to everyone who receives Council Tax Benefit in early 2013 to provide more details of the change and how it will affect them.

Further information on council tax, including how to arrange payments, is available on our website. You can also contact our Customer Service Centre to discuss payment options. n

Managing the growth of Cambridge

Local Plan gets

residents talking

In the summer, we asked residents for their views about what our priorities should be for the future development of the city, as part of a far-reaching consultation. You didn’t disappoint, supplying us with thousands of comments and ideas.

Exhibitions 7 January Grantchester Village Hall, High Street, Grantchester. 2.30pm to 7.30pm.

8 January Castle Street Methodist Church, Castle Street, Cambridge. 2.30pm to 7.30pm.

9 January Fulbourn, The Swifts. 2.30pm to 7.30pm.

10 January The Hub, High Street, Cambourne.

2.30pm to 7.30pm 12 January Jubilee Room, Trumpington Village Hall, High Street, Trumpington. Midday to 4pm 14 January Small Hall, Guildhall, Market Square, Cambridge. 2.30pm to 7.30pm.

16 January Memorial Hall, Woollards Lane, Great Shelford. 2.30pm to 7.30pm.

Nearly 900 residents and organisations submitted just over 11,000 comments in the first stage of our public consultation on the review of the Local Plan - the city’s key planning document that will guide decisions on matters including the location of new housing, parks and open spaces, schools and other amenities for the next twenty years.

The first consultation ran in June and July, and asked residents for their views on the issues and options that should be considered in the new plan, including the number of new homes required, where they should be built, and how many jobs should be provided in the city. The consultation also covered shopping facilities, tourism, and flood planning.

Initial analysis of the results reveals mixed support for building on green belt land, a desire for the city’s character to be protected and enhanced, backing for more local,

independent shopping centres, and calls for continued investment in alternatives to car usage. Residents also asked us to work closely with South Cambridgeshire District Council and Cambridgeshire County Council when drawing up future plans, which we are already doing.

We received suggestions of extra sites where development could take place, and backing for planned sites on the fringes of the city to the south and northwest. Most respondents are also in favour of continued redevelopment in central Cambridge around the rail station.

A second consultation covering site options for particular types of development – for example employment and housing – will take place in January and February 2013.

All options relating to fringe sites will be consulted on in conjunction with South Cambridgeshire District Council.

All consultation documents will be available on the city council’s website and a series of exhibitions have been planned (see details right). Please come along to one of the exhibitions to find out more.

The results from both consultations will be used to write a new draft Local Plan in spring 2013. We’ll then conduct a final consultation with residents in the summer, and present the draft plan to the Secretary of State in the autumn. It will then be independently reviewed before being adopted in spring 2014. n

In last year’s winter edition of Cambridge Matters we looked at the details of CB1, the project that is transforming the area around Cambridge rail station.

The scheme requires development firm Brookgate to deliver a new transport hub, residential and student accommodation, offices, retail outlets, hotels, and open spaces. There are also plans for a range of improvements to Cambridge rail station and the area in front of it, including making a new station square, and creating thousands of new cycle parking spaces in a multi-storey cycle park.

As you can see from this photograph taken in October, there has been significant progress on the scheme during 2012.

Here are details of what has been achieved this year. Opposite you’ll find information on some of the next planned developments in the project.

Cambridge City Council is now taking nominations from local community and voluntary organisations who want to take advantage of new Community Right to Bid legislation.

The scheme is part of the Localism Act (2011) and allows local community groups to identify assets that provide an important service in their area, and nominate them to be included in a list maintained by the city council.

Facilities covered by the scheme include local shops, pubs, community centres, libraries, playgrounds, swimming pools and markets.

If your community group’s nomination is accepted, we will keep track of the facility for five years. During that time, if the asset comes up for sale, your community group will be given six months to raise funds to bid for it before the owner can sell the asset on the open market.

Visit our website or call us for full details on how to nominate a facility, eligibility criteria, and links to other useful sites. n

Working for a healthy, safe and enjoyable city

Think ‘cyclist’ this winter

A new campaign by the Department for Transport (DfT) calls on drivers and cyclists to stay safe by looking out for each other.

Drivers and cyclists have more in common than is often realised, with 80% of cyclists holding a driving license and one in five drivers cycling at least once a month.

The DfT’s tips for harmony on our city’s roads are as follows:

Helping to clear snow and ice Snow and ice is always likely over the winter months, and if it arrives Cambridgeshire County Council is responsible for gritting major roads and pavements.

However, Cambridge City Council works with its county colleagues when they request it to help them clear snow and ice from pavements and cycle paths at important sites.

Our staff also clear: l City centre car parks; l Council owned sheltered housing sites; l Crematorium and city cemeteries (for burials); l Paths leading to public toilets.

What you can do to help You can help keep Cambridge moving over the winter by clearing pavements. If everyone tackles the pavement in front of their own house, the whole pathway can soon be cleared.

However, when clearing pavements it is important you don’t make it more dangerous than it was in the first place. A government snow code, which gives guidance on safely removing snow and ice from outside your property, pathways and public spaces, advises you to do the following: l Start early - it is much easier to clear fresh, loose snow compared to ice that has been compacted by people walking on it; l Don’t use hot water - it melts the snow, but will replace it with black ice, increasing the risk of injury; l Use ordinary table salt, ash or sand to prevent ice forming l Be a good neighbour and help anyone who may not be able to clear snow and ice from their own pathways;

14

l Be careful when clearing steps and steep

gradients.

The snow code is available on www.gov.uk/request-snow-clearance or phone our customer service centre on 01223 458282. n

Cambridgeshire County Council is responsible for gritting major roads and footpaths if snow and ice arrive in Cambridge. Find out more: County council’s website: www.cambridgeshire.gov.uk/gritting Phone the county council: 0345 045 5212 n

Cambridge City Council has a small amount of grit that can be provided to registered resident and community groups that are willing to help clear pavements of snow and ice. The grit is delivered in builder’s bags weighing approximately half a tonne. If you are part of a group that is willing to help, please contact our Streets and Open Spaces team: Phone: 01223 458295 Email: streetscene@cambridge.gov.uk n Keep up to date with any changes to city council services due to bad weather on our website at: Website: cambridge.gov.uk/serviceupdates Facebook: facebook.com/camcitco Twitter: twitter.com/camcitco n

When you’re driving l Look out for cyclists, especially when turning - make eye contact if possible so they know you’ve seen them. l Use your indicators - signal your intentions so that cyclists can react. l Give cyclists space – at least half a car’s width. If there isn’t sufficient space to pass, hold back. Remember that cyclists may need to manoeuvre suddenly if the road is poor, it’s windy or a car door is opened. l Always check for cyclists when you open your car door. l Avoid blocking advanced stop lines – these allow cyclists to get to the front and increase their visibility. l Follow the Highway Code including 'stop' and ‘give way’ signs and traffic lights.

When you’re cycling l Ride positively, decisively and keep well

clear of the kerb. l Look and signal to show drivers what you

plan to do, and make eye contact where possible so you know drivers have seen you. l Avoid riding up the inside of large vehicles, like lorries or buses, where you might not be seen by the driver. l Always use lights after dark or when visibility is poor. l Wear light-coloured or reflective clothing during the day and reflective clothing and/ or accessories in the dark to increase your visibility to other road users. l Follow the Highway Code including observing ‘stop’ and ‘give way’ signs and traffic lights. l The DfT recommends wearing a correctly fitted cycle helmet, which is securely fastened and conforms to current regulations.

Working for a healthy, safe and enjoyable city

Residents deliver local justice Cambridge City Council runs several schemes that help residents to tackle crime at a local level.

One such scheme is Restorative Justice, a group of neighbourhood resolution panels that enable local people to resolve criminal acts within the community.

Cambridge City Council is one of the first in the country to use these panels, which act as a go-between for victims of crime and those who commit criminal acts.

The city council, local police, and housing associations refer cases to the panels, which aim to find a resolution that compensates victims while allowing offenders to make amends for their crime without entering the criminal justice system – something that is particularly important in the case of young offenders, who may spiral deeper into a life of crime if they enter that system.

The panels are made up of volunteers living in the communities they cover, and typical resolutions can include arranging for offenders to repair any damage they have caused, carrying out gardening tasks for their victims, painting fences, or even just apologising. We currently have 13 volunteers, who are fully trained in how to bring about a resolution to cases.

Policing placed at the heart of the community Another way the city council helps residents tackle crime in their area is through the Policing and Safer Neighbourhoods scheme.

The scheme offers a practical way for residents to communicate concerns or problems in their neighbourhoods directly to us and the police. You can do this by attending your regular local area committee meetings, which are attended by councillors and members of the local police force, and are open to the public.

These meetings help the city council and police tackle crime and antisocial behaviour in neighbourhoods by prioritising the problems that matter to you. Police report back on their progress at subsequent meetings, where you can raise fresh issues.

Anyone can attend the area committee meetings, which are held every four months in the North, South, East, and West Central areas of the city.

The next meetings are due in early 2013, on the following dates: l West/Central, Castle, Market and Newnham, 10 Jan, Wesley Methodist Church, Christ’s Pieces l South, Cherry Hinton, Trumpington and Queen Edith’s, 14 Jan, Cherry Hinton Village Centre, Colville Road l North, East Chesterton, West Chesterton, Kings Hedges and Arbury, 31 Jan, The Meadows Community Centre, St Catharine’s Road l East, Coleridge, Romsey, Petersfield and Abbey, 26 Mar, Cherry Trees Day Centre, St Matthews Street n

If you’d like more information, or would like to volunteer, contact our Safer Communities team using the details at the bottom of this page. Volunteers will typically handle two to three cases every three months in their local community. n

• Website: cambridge.gov.uk/community-safety Email: safercommunities@cambridge.gov.uk

Offering an alternative to street life The Alternative Giving scheme is a joint effort by the city council, police and Cambridge Community Safety Partnership that encourages you to donate to charities rather than giving cash to people begging on the street.

Giving some spare change to people on the street is a natural instinct, but it may not help them in the way you think. Rather than being used to buy food or a warm drink, the cash may instead be used to fuel drug and alcohol addictions.

We would like to break that cycle, which is why we have teamed with five local charities - Wintercomfort, Cambridge Cyrenians, Cambridge Link-Up, Cambridge Street and Mental Outreach Team, and Emmaus – that specialise in improving street dwellers’ long- term prospects and, in turn, life expectancy.

The charities use the donations they receive to provide shelters, health care, and drug and alcohol addiction treatments. They also run learning and development programmes designed to help those living on the street get back on their feet.

For more information on the Alternative Giving scheme, the charities involved and details of how you can help by volunteering some time, visit cambridge.gov.uk/alternative-giving. n

Crematorium makeover

goes beyond buildings

The city council is currently investing in refurbishment of the crematorium on Huntingdon Road - however our plans for the facility go well beyond just giving it a fresh lick of paint.

We have already installed three new, more energy efficient cremators, and completed improvements to the cloister area. Now we’re ready to start redecorating public areas within the crematorium, with the East Chapel waiting room top of the list. Work in that area is due to be completed in December.

Next on the agenda are the site’s two chapels, a second waiting room, and public toilets. The target is to complete the overhaul

by March 2014.

The refurbishment doesn’t affect the crematorium’s other facilities, including the gardens of remembrance and memorial services that allow you to erect a permanent commemoration to loved ones even if several years have passed since your bereavement.

Crematorium staff will be holding a number of public events to raise awareness

of the additional services available at the site.

Events planned for early 2013 include a snowdrop walk in February and a daffodil walk in March, where we’ll be encouraging the public to come along and enjoy the woodlands around the site.

For more information on the events and services available, contact Deborah Richardson using the details below, or visit the bereavement section of our website. n

City council website gets fresh new look The crematorium isn’t the only city council service getting a makeover. By the time you read this, we’ll be in the final stages of upgrading our website.

Our goal is to make the site easier to use, make information easier to find, and increase the number of services

20

available to our residents online. The updated site should be fully up and running early in the new year, so check it out and let us know what you think. n
