[Reposted from March 2012] Questions to the Mayor (oh, crumbs!)
Mayor answers to London
Brent Cross regeneration scheme
| Question number | 0491/2012 |
| Meeting date | 22/02/2012 |
Following reports of the 'de-coupling' of precinct upgrades from
plans to regenerate wider Cricklewood, can you provide an update on
changes planned to the £4.7 billion regeneration scheme for Brent Cross?
Answer by Boris Johnson
There are no plans to decouple as you suggest. I am however keen to
investigate options around the phasing of the development with LB Barnet
and the developer to ensure the delivery of this vitally important
regeneration scheme.

Brent Cross
| Question number | 0578/2012 |
| Meeting date | 22/02/2012 |
The Evening Standard described Brent Cross Cricklewood as being "dead
in the water" and quoted you as advocating Brent Cross shopping centre
expansion alone, without other community benefits, including new
housing. In concrete terms, what were you suggesting, and were your
comments at variance with the approved planning permission for the site?
Answer by Boris Johnson
I would still like to see the wider regeneration scheme come forward,
but in order to deliver the schemes wider benefits, including
considerable community benefits it may be necessary to reconsider the
phasing of the development. I am keen to investigate all options with
the local authority and the developer in order to realise this scheme.
