Over the last four years Kingston residents have been let down by the ruling Lib Dems who have broken their manifesto promises, overseen poor decision after poor decision while increasing council tax to the maximum. Kingston Green Party has produced a positive six point programme to fix the failings of the last four years and get the council once again working for local people.
Improve our dirty air and tackle the climate and bio diversity emergency. Save our nature reserves at Seething Wells and Tolworth Court Farm.
Tackle fly-tipping. Boost recycling. End the appointment system for the tip, provide more bins and introduce repair and reuse shops in all town centres.
School Streets outside every school (where possible). Work with Tiffin Schools to give greater priority to Kingston kids.
Greens will deliver a Residents’ Charter - putting local people at the heart of our community decision making, especially around planning. Make it easier fro residents to participate in decision making and improve the way the council consults.
Promote sustainable development – protecting our greenbelt and metropolitan open land. Balance community and environmental need with the need for more affordable homes. Greater resident involvement.
Encourage refurbishment over demolition - repair and reopen the Kingfisher, use savings to build a third pool in the south of the Borough.
