A vision for the future of the district which will combat the climate emergency, deliver more social housing, support local businesses and provide enhanced community facilities has been approved by the council.
Alongside efforts to respond to the coronavirus pandemic, the council s top priority will be working to address the climate emergency, and the Sustainability and Climate Crisis Strategy sets out the actions to be taken locally to reach zero carbon emissions by 2030.
A meeting of the full council heard how SADC is pressing ahead with the redevelopment of the City Centre Opportunity Site – the area in and around the site of the former police station. It is also developing various plots of council-owned land in St Albans, London Colney and Harpenden to provide new homes for people on the district’s housing register, and further temporary accommodation for homeless people.
