Cabinet Question Time

Does the council unequivocally support TW7 residents in their opposition to Thames Water’s Direct River Abstraction proposals ?

Who decided that LIME bikes would be a good idea to turn Feltham into a bicycle scrapyard eyesore and have the bikes to be ridden on pavements at pedestrians directly at speed? The previous experience of other London Boroughs and mainland China should have been a warning. Being told to 'tell them yourself' by Hounslow council when making complaints about LIME bikes was also a nice touch!

Swan Street, particularly through Town Wharf and Lion Wharf Road, has unfortunately become a meeting point for drug dealers. Especially after 10 pm, it becomes very difficult to walk around as young people park their cars, gather and use laughing gas, and smoke weed. Despite multiple reports to both the Council and the Police, no action has been taken. What is your plan to stop these activies?

Hi there,Could you please let me know if there will be any school street plan or traffic restrictions for North Street, Isleworth? During school times, there is an extreme amount of traffic, and it resembles more of a highway. It's highly dangerous as children are crossing the street, and some drivers seem inattentive. This situation could lead to an incident.
I would like to inquire about your

I have requested the Trading Standards and the Citizens Advice for help. Where is the trading standard department existence? The Butchery Shops in Hounslow west or the High Street are a law unto themselves. they do not display prices and the quality of mince is pure fat. The none existence of the Council Department to check hygiene quality and price display does not exist. Is this group able.

Why is Council not doing anything with repairs to my road Munster Ave, Footpaths +Roads
I have asked this question to Highways since 2015 and they say No budget, but the budget for Connaught Ave which next street to Munster Ave.
Can you sort out double parking on the yellow lines in corner of Munster Ave and also fast driving, we have speed limit of 20mph, we need bumps please.
Thank you.

I would like to know when the trees that were taken down in Kendall Road, Isleworth will be replaced. Since living in the road 4 trees have been removed and none have been replanted. Does the cabinet feel that this fits with the green agenda and the Grow the Future plan for sustainable food growing spaces in the borough?

How does the cabinet feel about a retired politician who has not been an MP for 7 years taking up a senior position as the Foreign Secretary?
Should members of the cabinet be voted in by the public or should they just be chosen by the leader?

I am very concerned about the speed of drivers through Heston village. Numerous schools access their school via this road. 20 mph restriction is ignored. 2023 alone, on two separate occasions, cars mounted the path on the section of Heston Rd closest to the Catholic primary school. We need physical speed restrictions on Heston Rd leading into the centre of Heston village. What can be done?

This cabinet is made up of who? All labour or others? When do Conservatives, Lib Dems and green party hold theirs and where?
But like I said; time for a trip to ikea because you all have failed miserably.

Hounslow front gardens are quickly turning from traditional cottage gardens with similar facades to concrete and paved over driveways, frontages with religious symbols, unsympathetic doors and brutal railings. LBH Planning Department should provide and enforce a number of red lines for owners not to cross to prevent our streets becoming full of fortresses and religious symbols. What can be done?

With the Borough’s Local Plan soon to be released, can the Cabinet firstly summarise what the responses to Regulation 18 have so far revealed and secondly will the Cabinet confirm that the next Local Plan will respect the protection afforded to the Borough’s Green Belt and exclude development on Green Belt Land, including in particular 100 acres of Green Belt in Bedfont known as Hatton Fields?

4 years I’ve tried to get an EHCP for my daughter. She was recently rejected again. She is too Autistic for Sparrow Farm (mainstream) and not Autistic enough for The Rise School (for children with ASD). I’ve had to take her out of education due to forcing her in for 4 years. She is now suicidal 10 year old. She deserves to be in The Rise school. It’s a game changer for children with Autism. Help

I have emailed and had replies, promising by Highways that the now nothing to do with Feltham in Bloom 6 fountain planters will be managed by Highways. Still haven't been planted up and as promised by Wayne Stephenson within the Autumn schedule and the one opposite the shopping centre entrance to be removed an update would be great as they are a complete eye sore down the High St.

At the last council forum I raised about the very insensitive decision to have a Lime green parking bay put within the war memorial area. Can I have a update on this please and when will it be removed. Personally this scheme is a complete nightmare and nuisance to the public, finding these bikes everywhere just dumped on pavements etc plus no consultation at all with businesses and community.

New signage at Feltham Green when the Friends group was consulted there was no mention that the wording of 'Hanworth Park' would be under the name 'Feltham Green'. I know that area is under Hanworth Park Ward but its very confusing having it on Feltham Green park signage. Will be emailing parks concerning this to have it removed, just wanted to ask why this has been allowed.

What is the future plan to Reduce the Housing price, Because this area housing price are very high, so you have any plan to some kind of control to balance the housing market in Hounslow?

What are the three main challenges or failings that our Borough faces and what plans or measures have been put in place to address them

What is the plan around fly-tipping? It doesn't seem to be going away?
