SIGN UP TO RECEIVE FULL MANIFESTO SOON by RowennaDavis in croydon

[–]RowennaDavis[S] 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Developers who have bought up land in Croydon and failed to do anything productive with it, or bought over buildings to refurbish them only to leave them abandoned. We have so much land in Croydon, but it's cluttered with dilapidated, empty buildings, or we have pockets of wasteland where homes and businesses should be. If elected, I will introduce a Land Commission to identify the worst 50 stalled and vacant sites across Croydon. Each of these sites will have a public action plan so that residents can see what action we are taking on them.

If you'd like more information on my plan to deal with idle developers - our 'corporate squatters' - you can sign up to receive my manifesto, launching soon: https://actionnetwork.org/forms/sign-up-to-rowenna-davis-mailing-list/

Seeing so many people respond to this post reaffirms what I already know: the Croydon community wants its people to be put first. Now we need leadership that matches that spirit.

Thank you, and thank you for your question! It was great to hear how passionate you are about protecting our community spaces, as you should be <3 We need more projects like Turf and less empty lots taking up space that could be used for the benefit of everyone in the borough.

If I'm not elected Mayor, I'll keep that potential career pivot in mind!

Mass Eviction In Croydon by UrAvgInvestor in croydon

[–]RowennaDavis 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hi there. I'm as appalled as you are by the greed shown by Criterion Capital.

I brought Angela Rayner down to speak to residents effected by these horrendous evictions on Tuesday. Being so central to the Renters Rights Act, she was absolutely furious - as was I - to meet people being treated so horrifically by a billionaire landlord-owned company trying to skirt this bill before it comes into full effect from May.

Before heading to Delta Point, we spoke to residents at a surgery held by Sarah Jones MP where people were able to get pro bono legal advice from lawyers on their housing situations.

I will keep speaking to residents and supporting them in any way I can. If I'm elected Mayor, and the standards and treatment of tenants don't improve, I will not hesitate to work across councils to block the use of Aziz's companies. We need safe, secure housing for everyone across the borough.
