Tuesday 3rd March 2009

Alternatively a representative from the City Centre Development Team will be present to discuss the Big City Plan at a Ladywood Constituency public meeting about it 3 March 2009 at 7pm at Ladywood Community and Health Centre, Ladywood.

 

If you can’t attend a meeting, why not have your say online?

The Birmingham Bloggers group have ‘translated’ the Big City Plan into Plain English, and enabled people to leave their comments against each section. www.bigcitytalk.org.uk . Even better – do both!

Car Security

Don’t think that because your car is in a ’secure’ car park under your apartment block it won’t get broken into. We have heard of three such cars having driver’s window smashed and small-but-expensive items taken in the last few days. Please don’t leave your satnav, ipod, or other tempting targets in your cars overnight!

Big City Plan – update

Walking around the city centre, you couldn’t fail to have seen posters about BIG CITY PLAN.
If you wondered what it was all about or, more likely, doubted that it had anything at all do with you, then think again!….

Help us build our Directories!

We are building lists of Organisations, with contact details, that we believe are useful to Birmingham City Centre dwellers.   Our three categories are:  

• Finding help you may need
• Organisations wanting your help
• Things to join, see, and do

We would welcome your suggestions to help us build up these contact lists, or update them.
