Crystal Palace Chamber of Commerce Question Time, Mar 27

Crystal Palace Chamber Of Commerce is staging a Question Time event next Thursday, March 27, from 7pm at the Queens Hotel, Church Road, where members of the public put their questions to Greater London Authority members of the Labour, Conservative and Green Party – Val Shawcross, Darren Johnson and Steve O’Connell.

The discussion will be chaired by former City lawyer and Vicar of Christchurch, Gipsy Hill, Jonathan Croucher.

The GLA has big plans for Crystal Palace, but what do you think?

• Should the top site of Crystal Palace Park be sold off?
• Should the process be more transparent?
• Do we need more development in Crystal Palace?
• How can we create more jobs?
• Will we get a tram? Or do we want one? How do we address Crystal Palace’s problems of being on the edge of five boroughs?
• Is the independent ethos of Crystal Palace’s High Street something to be valued?

This is your chance to have your voice heard and tell the politicians what you think really matters. What would your question be? Please email Paul Bartholomew at info@lecargo.co.uk to help us structure the debate.

The Crystal Palace Chamber of Commerce looks forward to your contribution and hopes you can attend. Due to limited space we would be very grateful if you could let the organisers know by emailing Paul Bartholomew.
