What are you waiting for, more needless deaths? Good Health and WellbeingWhat should the council do to help achieve this outcome?Air quality - Attempts to remind drivers to turn their engine off is of course a good start, and park and ride options are good. Many (most) busses are still heavy polluters however, although these of course may do more good then harm in terms of removing more cars from the road. Air quality in schools and public buildings - more plants should be installed to soak up pollutants (see the NASA clean air study). Chemical based air fresheners and the like should be banned. School dinners - these should have plenty of plant based/vegan options (but not crackers and processed foods). Although as these sometimes come with a stigma they should therefore not be marked as "vegan". Fresh fruit smoothies with vegetables in them are truly delicious and a great way to give kids the nutrients they need. However processed smoothies and especially fruit juices are usually sugar riddled junk. Getting kids involved in making their smoothies is a great win. Publicity - use other outlets not just the council website to promote council initiatives and ways to access things, for instance York mumbler etc Empty premises - there are a lot of empty premises and all business owners I talk to complain of the high rents. Retail is on it's back at present and the cheap pound will only sustain foreign tourists for so long. This entire strategy needs an overhaul. Some empty premises should be converted into indoor play areas for kids as the ones out of town are a taxi (or bus) away. This helps to keep kids active and also provides a welcome outlet for children visiting with their parents. There are parks available granted, but how often is it raining? Playgrounds - many playgrounds are decrepit and at least in need of a lick of paint. Swings are especially popular but in short supply. The swings at Victoria bar are dreadful, about 3 feet long, Victoria bar playground should be double that area in length. City centre - alleyways such as the ones either side of Lakeland are effectively a latrine and urine stagnates there continuously, there are also faeces observed. There should almost be a means to mildly flush the area, perhaps using stored rainwater. Litter - there is a lot of litter in York in the shape of empty cans and bottles, the perpetrators should be fined on the spot and made an example of. Homelessness - this has increased dramatically though many homeless people I have seen myself have in fact got a home and are "professional beggars". Many however are genuinely homeless and need help, but nowhere in the city do we promote the fact that giving homeless people money does nothing but fuel their addiction (I have seen homeless people dealing on many an occasion). An ad campaign to advise people of the social ills of this despite it seeming sensible is needed, if anything people should donate food.

Good Health and WellbeingWhat should the council do to help achieve this outcome?Encourage GP services to open longer hours Good Health and WellbeingWhat should the council do to help achieve this outcome?Local GP's - Cherry Street no longer has any and it impacts a lot of people in the area without easy transport or mental capacity to travel further. In addition, you should focus on the impact that antisocial tenants have on those living around them. If there was a hardhitting approach to tenancies then antisocial/criminal residents could be evicted earlier. Think about priority housing for key workers. The impact of poor tenants and current housing policy causes a great deal of stress on residents around those properties. More strict tenancies (even after the first year) would enable CYC to evict earlier, or a "three strikes" rule after the first year, even if three strikes means you will get inspected every month/three months. I don't think CYC truly understand the impact that poor tenants have on a community, do not offer additional victim support/counselling and this should not be limited to support for CYC tenants.

Good Health and WellbeingWhat should the council do to help achieve this outcome?Run a very strong city wide campaign, support services etc to encourage people to be more aware that they're overweight and what they can do about it. Good Health and WellbeingWhat should the council do to help achieve this outcome?Put more money towards these things and hire more doctors and nurses Good Health and WellbeingWhat should the council do to help achieve this outcome?One simple solution is to enforce rules about idling. Drivers routinely sit in tailbacks on roads like Holgate Road, Water End, Station Road, and Blossom Street with their engines running despite not moving. Arguably, if they're not moving anytime in the next 20-30 seconds, drivers should be asked to switch their engines off? It would be nice if people could be reminded to do this, ideally on the problem routines where air quality is so bad. Another solution could be to give priority on major routes to buses and those in car-share schemes during peak times. The vast majority of cars have single occupants, which seems mad. Next, we need much better, separate bike lanes. I personally don't enjoy cycling in York because a) I don't feel safe (more than one of my coworkers has been knocked off their bike and been off work for weeks as a result this year alone) and b) the air quality is so bad cycling alongside idling vehicles. The only way to get more people cycling is to make life easier for people on bikes. Finally, perhaps we could more often close city centre roads on weekends? The pavements are far too narrow for the thousands of people, and removing cars would make the city centre a much more pleasant place to be.

Scheme like that outlined in 'Radical Help' by Hilary Cottam to help match people with jobs Well-paid jobs and an inclusive economyWhat should the council do to help achieve this outcome?To start with reduce the traffic Secondly make more cycle paths and pedestrian areas Thirdly have a look at other Cities around the world that are user friendly for children - for instance in Singapore a lot of the big shopping malls have soft play centres for children where the parents can drop the children off in a secure environment, go and do a bit of shopping and come back and pick up the children. It has been said that businesses in York are saying that cars are needed in the City Centre to bring people in to shop. BUT that is not strictly true people will come if there is something for them - entertain the children and families will come. In the City Centre you have the BHS store it is two floors - it is ideally placed to have the bottom floor done out as a soft play centre for children and the top floor done out as a meeting place for children from ages 12-16 - because there are a lot of bored teenagers - both places could be run by the Council - the top floor could be done out with bean bags, music and some drinks and snacks - the bottom floor done out with soft play items for children from ages 3 - 11 (marking out different age areas) I have seen this in other countries. The parents then pay for the children to be there and they go and shop and knowing their children are occupied and happy and safe. It would be a fantastic project, bringing families in and it would work well because the weather in England is not always that good.

Good Design “Social interaction is a key factor in determining both the physical and the mental health and wellbeing of an individual from childhood through adult life” Mental health In the UK, mental health problems constitute 28 per cent of the total burden of disease, compared to 16 per cent each for cancer and heart disease. One in four people (25 per cent) in the UK will experience a mental health problem in any given year and nearly one in five people show symptoms of anxiety or depression. The scale of the problem is significant, but often when we think about or consider health the focus is on physical or dietary issues rather than the promotion of a healthy mental state. However, mental wellbeing is much more than just the absence of mental illness. It represents a more positive side to mental health, incorporating more aspirational concerns such as peace of mind, contentment, confidence, social connection, self-realisation, and happiness. The environment can influence mental health and wellbeing by strengthening mental resilience, helping to heal from mental illness, and promoting a general feeling of happiness and empowerment. As described, the home is where people spend most of their time, and in particular where they spend time with family members. Therefore the issue of happiness in residential design is vital: emotions are more powerful here when compared to office or retail settings. Finally, design quality has also been strongly linked to mental health. People living in better quality housing have fewer psychological issues, including decreased anxiety and depression Social wellbeing Social connectedness can have a very positive influence on our mental wellbeing. Having positive relationships, control over your own life and a sense of purpose are all attributes of functioning well. International evidence has recently been gathered to measure wellbeing, demonstrating that this field has now emerged as a rigorous discipline Social interaction is a key factor in determining both the physical and the mental health and wellbeing of an individual from childhood all the way through to adult life. It takes place within various environments: starting at home, continuing within the neighbourhood, evolving in school, expanding in the professional environment and flourishing with social activities. The majority of these interactions emerge within our homes and immediate surroundings, which we intuitively value more as a result of their long-lasting presence. According to the World Health Organisation (WHO) “the main action on social determinants of health ... come from outside the health sector” The WHO defines health not as the absence of ill-health but as “a state of complete physical, mental and social wellbeing. The definition of health thus includes an awareness of the interrelationships between social and psychological as well as medical factors. The way in which an individual functions at home, within the family and the wider community is seen as part of the health definition, alongside biological and physiological symptoms. Health is determined by a range of factors related to the quality of our homes and the wider neighbourhood. I think better planning for the 3 rd age would free a lot of homes for family's if the right planning and to remain in thee are they have been for all their lives , the majority of the 3 age in YO23 have money to invest in this .

Getting Around SustainablyWhat should the council do to help achieve this outcome?I believe more can be done to encourage uptake of these modes, especially in new developments. New housing development proposals will usually adhere to national standards on parking. The local plan should however ensure adoption of more efficient local parking standards, as well as pushing provision of e-charging points at York's park and rides. S106 Contributions and York's CIL charging structure should ensure cycle lanes and parking has money channeled towards it, specifically. Ensure funding for behavioural change at primary schools is present, including cycling proficiency at an earlier age; possible perks for kids that cycle to school; education to demonstrate that being dropped off in a car is bad for the environment, fellow school pupils and themselves (re idling of cars, increased emissions, lack of exercise for child themselves) Getting Around SustainablyWhat should the council do to help achieve this outcome?Open more stations ie Strensall and build a larger car park there so it is actually usable Getting Around SustainablyWhat should the council do to help achieve this outcome?affordable, efficient transport Getting Around SustainablyWhat should the council do to help achieve this outcome?Work with providers to lower the cost of public transport - especially on weekends Getting Around SustainablyWhat should the council do to help achieve this outcome?Ensuring that bus companies keep their prices low (first bus has been increasing their student fares every year despite no changes in service quality) and more routes are added especially to the university Getting Around SustainablyWhat should the council do to help achieve this outcome?Continue to improve cycle/walking routes.

Much easier to sell making a street one way for cars as part of making our city pleasanter, heathier and safer rather than just blocking motor traffic access and restricting parking - Micklegate shows there is an appetite for these sort of actions. Allow cars to park overnight at Park and Ride sites, possibly for a nominal fee, to cover security surveillance, so visitors staying in the city do not need to bring their cars in. Allow parking and cycling at Park and Ride sites. Investigate running 'tram-trains' on existing railway lines, opening up stations at Haxby and Strensall.

Getting Around SustainablyWhat should the council do to help achieve this outcome?Subsidise buses. Getting Around SustainablyWhat should the council do to help achieve this outcome?Bus prices are too high for those living just outside the city (for example Haxby), so it is not worth paying such high prices to travel in to shop in the city centre. More electric buses and encouraging shorter journeys by walking/cycling would also help. Getting Around SustainablyWhat should the council do to help achieve this outcome?dont know Getting Around SustainablyWhat should the council do to help achieve this outcome?Be bold and have some balls. Make decisions without be frightened of the vocal minority. Be like the Dutch and Belgium's in their cycling infrastructure and investment. Getting Around SustainablyWhat should the council do to help achieve this outcome?Invest in cycle infra structure to villages (we have the Air Museum - that could make a great family cycling destination!). Invest in better bus service to villages Getting Around SustainablyWhat should the council do to help achieve this outcome?Repair pot holes Getting Around SustainablyWhat should the council do to help achieve this outcome?Provide public transport and initiatives for more cycling and walking. Getting Around SustainablyWhat should the council do to help achieve this outcome?We need to both deincentivise car use (particularly in city centre where air quality is dangerously poor) AND incentivise the use of public transport. Less cars would help the buses become more reliable, but the prices need to be brought down considerably and links to outlying villages improved. Trials could be run (as they have done in other major European cities) of no-car days where free public transport is provided to everyone. Even if this was only once a month this would have a significant impact on air quality. Encourage businesses to allow their employees to work from home (where possible) at least 1 day a week. Reintroduce free school buses (as per the American/Canadian system). The council could also encourage lift sharing - either by creating their own platform for arranging this or working with an existing platform (such as LiftShareUK) to raise public awareness of this transport solution. I think cycling provision in the city is good (although we could do with better lighting and maintance on some of the cycle paths in winter). I would also suggest encouraging bus companies to provide better faciliaties for cyclists (such as the front-of-bus bike racks which can carry multiple cycles) and free for public use bike repair stops in public spaces such as bus terminals (both of these are schemes I saw in Halifax, Nova Scotia). Getting Around SustainablyWhat should the council do to help achieve this outcome?Invest in better transport links which are affordable and reliable. Getting Around SustainablyWhat should the council do to help achieve this outcome?Offer a groundbreaking public transport service which is reliable, modern and re-invents York as a shining example of green living for all. Getting Around SustainablyWhat should the council do to help achieve this outcome?Move road space from cars to other forms of transport - buses, bikes and walking. The main way to get people out of the cars is to make other forms of transport relatively quicker and more attractive. the council could, for example: - create a traffic-free city centre - make York Central traffic free - install bus gates at Marble Arch and the Leeman Road/Salisbury Terrace junction - create more bus lanes - Getting Around SustainablyWhat should the council do to help achieve this outcome?As above; improve facilities for cyclists (road / cycle lane surfaces, covered parking), demand better (and much cheaper) services of bus operators, encourage electric cars (eg. via on-street charging points in terraced streets), get rid of Uber Getting Around SustainablyWhat should the council do to help achieve this outcome?Later buses and cheaper parking Getting Around SustainablyWhat should the council do to help achieve this outcome?Take cars out in some key areas within the walls, introduce a bold through-route via Piccadilly/Coney/Minster or IDEALLY all the way along the river, which allows cyclists to continue without dismounting but makes it clear to pedestrians how these routes function. Traffic must be excluded from these areas at times for this progress to occur. There are not enough cycle parking spaces in York, or provisions for cargo or disabled bicycles - the council needs to do its utmost to ensure that we not only accommodate walking and cycling but accessibility for those on accessible bicycles, trikes, wheelchairs, mobility scooters as well. Sustainable public transport does not seem to exist, bar a few electric vehicles - do these all need to be full-size long buses? Local public transport does not seem affordable for most people to use most of the time. While the car is still cheaper as a rule to run, and the safe alternative routes are not there, the car remain king, sadly. Getting Around SustainablyWhat should the council do to help achieve this outcome?Bus gates at Marble Arch and the Leeman Road/Salisbury Terrace junction would help; keep heavy vehicles out of the city centre altogether Getting Around SustainablyWhat should the council do to help achieve this outcome?Have a straightforward, city-wide plan to cut traffic and provide sustainable alternatives. Cut traffic by promoting walking, cycling, public transport (especially electric or solar buses). Ban traffic from city centre to improve ease of getting round for all on foot, cycle, those with mobility disabilities etc. Keep the really big heavy lorries out of the centre of York.

Prioritise cyclists and pedestrians. Improve cycle routes. Better and more joined up public transport, that operates later in the evening and covers all areas of the city. New developments should priortise low carbon travel, discourage care use (eg. York Central). Getting Around SustainablyWhat should the council do to help achieve this outcome?Devise a way of limiting through traffic, or eliminating it altogether. Getting Around SustainablyWhat should the council do to help achieve this outcome?Stop putting cars first in our infrastructure.

Stop putting signs up on footpaths and calling them a shared space as it does not work for anybody. Getting Around SustainablyWhat should the council do to help achieve this outcome?Make changes to the way the Park and Ride is operated; provide incentives for people not to bring cars into the city if they stay overnight; provide even more Park and Ride options further out.

BB holders maybe get 12 free trips a year. Safer bike paths Wider bike paths Getting Around SustainablyWhat should the council do to help achieve this outcome?Cycling in clearly designated cycle lanes is desirable as many motorists hold cyclists in low regard and cyclists need clear lanes to operate in, especially at some junctions and when turning right. Many white lines are faded and oncoming cars don't know where to go. Ideally it should be possible to cycle almost anywhere without using main roads at all, but using becks and designated paths etc instead. There are some pedestrian blind corners all over the city, especially at the end of Gillygate where it meets Bootham, pedestrians congregate there often and there is no idea who is around the corner but it is often somebody hurtling along with a pram. A concave mirror or the like should be installed. The roads in York cannot cope with the deluge of traffic they receive. Dualling the ring road has been talked about for an eternity. The train station is dreadfully polluted, grass, or other vegetation should be planted between the tracks to soak some of it up. Install extractor type fans in the roof space. Getting Around SustainablyWhat should the council do to help achieve this outcome?Pedestrianise as much of York as possible; stop building car parks; make the new station area and York Central car free except for taxis and disabled access; improve cycle tracks so that pedestrians and cyclists are all safe. Getting Around SustainablyWhat should the council do to help achieve this outcome?While York is pretty good for cyclists, there could still be more cycle only routes. We urgently need to cut car use in the centre of the city (given our record-breaking levels of pollution.) Could we introduce a congestion charge? Or pedestrianise a larger area? Getting Around SustainablyWhat should the council do to help achieve this outcome?Work closely with local residents, organisations and transport providers to identify and address issues around access that are eco friendly, sustainable and meet local need and help reduce the number of (non residential) vehicle traffic Getting Around SustainablyWhat should the council do to help achieve this outcome?It is shocking as a cyclist and pedestrian to see the way motorists behave with regard to pedestrians, for example driving through intersections when there is already a pedestrian engaged in crossing. One example is car drivers swinging around from the A19 onto Burton Stone Lane without with out any regard to pedestrians already crossing. Pedestrians cannot get a good view of traffic approaching from the A19 even when cars signal. Getting Around SustainablyWhat should the council do to help achieve this outcome?Invest in bus services; subsidise public transport for those on lower incomes; make cycling as easy as possible; consider all decisions from point of view of pedestrian; Getting Around SustainablyWhat should the council do to help achieve this outcome?Review the evidence from trials in other areas and seriously consider introducing an on-demand bus service to fill the gaps in, and connect people to, the conventional bus network. Getting Around SustainablyWhat should the council do to help achieve this outcome?Do more to catch and fine them Getting Around SustainablyWhat should the council do to help achieve this outcome?Create continuous cycle paths to and from residential areas into the city. No stop starts at dangerous bridges etc unless you widen pavements and make half for cyclists. Offer York as testing environment for self drive cars from Google, Uber etc so York attracts future technologists and designers. Create subsidised taxi use scheme or shared car/mini bus scheme for people who need transport to door (with heavy shopping etc), who can’t afford regular cabs but are helping York by staying car-free Getting Around SustainablyWhat should the council do to help achieve this outcome?Establish out-of-town consolidation centres to limit the number of delivery vehicles entering the city. Getting Around SustainablyWhat should the council do to help achieve this outcome?Install and promote safe, attractive and continuous cycling and walking facilities. Take measures to totally prevent the use of private motor vehicles inside the city walls, and restrict their use to prevent the use of residential areas as "rat runs" for through traffic. Filtered permeability is a good option here, stopping through motor traffic, but encouraging the use of bicycles and walking for through journeys. Getting Around SustainablyWhat should the council do to help achieve this outcome?Subsidise buses so that they are cheap and frequent. Also market the service well, including savings that will be made from their use. Getting Around SustainablyWhat should the council do to help achieve this outcome?Improve the cycle network, in particular safe routes to schools so that as many children as possible are able to choose this form of transport, thereby improving air quality and children's health as well as contributing to a climate change strategy target of being carbon neutral by 2030 Getting Around SustainablyWhat should the council do to help achieve this outcome?I believe they are working on a long term plan - cutting pollution should be a priority. Getting Around SustainablyWhat should the council do to help achieve this outcome?Encourage modal shifts to walking, cycling, bus and rail use. Make public transport cheaper and quicker than the car.

Getting Around SustainablyWhat should the council do to help achieve this outcome?Better bus services for all and not just Foxwood. Getting Around SustainablyWhat should the council do to help achieve this outcome?Add safe bicycle paths or lanes. There are many roads with wide verges and pavements but narrow or missing bicycle lanes, with cars parked. It is dangerous to cycle on these. As nice as the extra wide pavements are, I think it's justifiable to widen roads and add bicycle lanes with a physical separation from the road. Parking should be restricted on these, if nothing else, than restricted during peak times. Bicyclists should also be allowed to use some wider pavements when it is not practical to add separate bicycle lanes. (Some Scottish councils do this.) I used to live in Clifton and would regularly see police confront people bicycling on the pavement but never ticketing people driving at 40mph in 20mph zones. Look into speed restrictions in some areas during inclement weather. I regularly see accidents between motorists and bicyclists when it rains. (This is done in some US states.) Parking and speed restrictions should be enforced. Likewise, large lorries and construction vehicles should not only be banned before 9am, but this needs to be enforced. This causes traffic jams for cars as well as making bicycling more dangerous. Improve the bus routes. The buses in many areas only stop every 30 or 60 minutes, and take long circuitous routes. It's often faster to walk than it is to take a bus. Also acknowledge that some people have legitimate reasons to drive a vehicle (disability, long distance commuting where trains/buses impractical, larger shopping), and not make motorists feel punished. This makes people resentful. A decent traffic study by professionals that can recommend changes to roads and bus routes is worthwhile, rather than having the council make arbitrary restrictions such as the Lendal Bridge. These decisions would have more public support if there were actual scientific studies by professionals to back them. Look into traffic systems where the direction of a road or middle lane changes to one way, but the direction changes based on the time of day. Also, have a system to educate and encourage bicyclists to learn the rules of the road. I have seen many instances where bicyclists truly believe there are no rules for them, and they go through lights or endanger pedestrians. Getting Around SustainablyWhat should the council do to help achieve this outcome?Better subsidise public transport. Getting Around SustainablyWhat should the council do to help achieve this outcome?Clear city centre of traffic hot spots like bootham and gillygate, they’re are a threat to local residents and traders health. Gillygate is too narrow to accommodate 2 and 3 laned traffic, the footpaths are used heavily by tourists from coach park and emergency vehicles are hindered - Cars mounting busy pavements is unsafe and air quality of poor- probably illegal. Getting Around SustainablyWhat should the council do to help achieve this outcome?Allow train stations to be built at Haxby and Strensall Getting Around SustainablyWhat should the council do to help achieve this outcome?Traffic free city centre except for buses, taxis and cyclists. If you make it less attractive for motorists then once they have stopped whinging they will use park and ride. Selling point is taking a cost of how much fuel /electricity people are using by driving through the city centre. BUT you need to dual carriageway the whole of the outer ring road - this is your biggest problem. You need to accept that people will drive, but by having a dual carriageway it eases the traffic on the city centre as people are using that as a quicker route than the outer ring road. This has been too long in the making! Just be brave and take action!

Getting Around SustainablyWhat could you (as an individual, part of a community or an organisation) do to help achieve this outcome?1. Discussion and informing other people of the concerns regarding the climate crisis 2. I have given some thought to this problem and have come up with two ideas a. Heavy vehicles I would like to see greatly fewer vehicles, particularly heavy ones, in York City centre. If you consider the Park & Ride scheme in York, which takes car users (drivers and passengers) and a bus takes them from a designated place i.e. possibly near Tesco’s, Tadcaster Road into York centre. Could a similar scheme be introduced for goods that are needed by the shops in York? Currently, I believe that there will be numerous lorries carrying many items from different destinations to cities like York and surrounding towns and cities. When the lorries arrive at York from different directions, they often only need to deliver at one or two places in York or have a small number of items to be delivered to the one destination in York. My solution is as follows. (It is only an idea to reflect the need ‘to keep heavy vehicles out of the city centre altogether’). The lorries meet at arranged places outside York City centre – similar to the Park & Ride scheme. Goods destined for York are transferred to another vehicle. This vehicle then has all the York bound goods in the one vehicle and can deliver to their destinations. As an example. If currently, there are 10 lorries bringing goods to York (and the surrounding towns and cities). These 10 lorries then will unload items for York in designated places and 1 vehicle will take the ‘York’ goods into York. So instead of 10 lorry journeys there is now 1. 2. Improved public transport My solution would be as follows: That public transport becomes ‘free’ at the point of service for the passenger. In reality, it would mean that the costs associated with running a bus route are paid from other sources and not the passengers. (An alternative would be for the passengers to pay a nominal amount say 50p or £1.) Initially the council and / or government could pay the costs of running the bus route, but as there will hopefully be more people in town spending more money, then the shops could start to pick up the cost. I know that it will be controversial, but there are benefits – possibly longer - term ones e.g. fewer vehicles on the road, increased spending in town. It could be initially tried on (a) selected road(s) on one day a week to see how successful it is and then expanded throughout the roads into York. Perhaps, initially have one day a week on which all York bound transport is free. Additionally, I don’t often use the bus as I generally walk into town. I last used the bus about 2 years ago to go from Bishopthorpe Road to the railway station. It cost £1.60. If I needed to catch the bus home, the amount would be £3.20, which is a little more that an hour’s parking i.e. parking is (often) cheaper and more convenient. I think that this is one of the main challenges to be solved, but possibly could be with free transport Getting Around SustainablyWhat could you (as an individual, part of a community or an organisation) do to help achieve this outcome?Host local events celebrating private car alternatives and providing people with encouragment to make sustainable transport plans for all their travel Getting Around SustainablyWhat could you (as an individual, part of a community or an organisation) do to help achieve this outcome?I am buying a bicycle, and do not own a car.

The council should put pressure on the central government to solve this issue. A Better Start for Children and Young PeopleWhat should the council do to help achieve this outcome?I am aware that York tries to maintain a certain look by restricting the type of buildings to be built in York. However, students and young working professionals can have considerable trouble and stress trying to find a place to live. Furthermore, housing communities do not seem very inclusive and give way for discrimination. As for schools, I find uniforms and catchment areas a little strange. Uniforms put an additional financial burden on families that are already vulnerable and may not be able to afford them. Same goes for catchment areas where the 'competition' for schools goes to whomever can afford to buy a house in the required area. How the council should address these issues, I am not sure.

A recent mumsnet blog asking about things to do in YORK with a young family gives a valuable insight as to how YORK is perceived by people with a young family.

A Better Start for Children and Young PeopleWhat should the council do to help achieve this outcome?Many schoolchildren are lumped together of differing abilities to be serviced by teachers run ragged to hit unrealistic targets that are simply sticks to beat them in terms of wider funding. There should be an effort to introduce more after school clubs at community centres and the like. There should be far more opportunity for people to choose the school that the child attends rather than it being a postcode lottery. Parents know if they can get that child to that particular school or not, and children may well flourish in a different school that the one they may default to. Private schools should take in more children who's parents have less money to send them there, but the child is notably distinct/gifted. School dinners - these should have plenty of plant based/vegan options (but not crackers and processed foods). Although as these sometimes come with a stigma they should therefore not be marked as "vegan". Fresh fruit smoothies with vegetables in them are truly delicious and a great way to give kids the nutrients they need. However processed smoothies and especially fruit juices are usually sugar riddled junk. Getting kids involved in making their smoothies is a great win.

A Better Start for Children and Young PeopleWhat should the council do to help achieve this outcome?Encourage schools and nurseries to operate longer hours. Sometimes 8.00 or 8.30 is too late to drop children off at a nursery or school and then commute to work (see my comments regarding flex time in an earlier section). Likewise, 18.00 can be too early to pick up children. Having schools end at 15.00 with no free after-school programme means that there needs to be one parent who works part-time or damages his/her career. These programmes should be free. Some nurseries or schools with after-school programmes do not provide an evening meal. This means that parents leave work, pick up a hungry (and grumpy) child, then must get home to prepare their tea. The child ends eating ready-meals or staying up later than he should. There needs to be support for parents and carers, especially when both parents work, or even single parents, especially when there are no family members living close by who can help. That said, I am unclear on what exactly this should be.

As new housing is built it should be more environmentaly friendly & energy efficient which should be compulsory. A Greener and Cleaner CityWhat is most important to you in achieving this outcome?York is increasingly horrible- dirty with litter and vehicle pollution. The centre blighted by stags, hens, drunks and homeless ( as pointed out to me by 3 lots of recent visitors). York is potentially a beautiful city to live work and leisure in. Maybe the potential Foss Basin entrance will improve Fishergate -Fulford experience of travelling to the centre. Town centre- what is its purpose- I want to shop as I get older feeling safe, want to be able to walk home from entertainment in the evening not weaving around the drunks and I want my teen to see a night out doesn’t have to involve excess alcohol drinking. A Greener and Cleaner CityWhat is most important to you in achieving this outcome?Modern cycle network. Higher quality built environment A Greener and Cleaner CityWhat is most important to you in achieving this outcome?Creating larger green spaces A Greener and Cleaner CityWhat is most important to you in achieving this outcome?Everything said so far. All these issues are linked and some of these disaggregated questionnaire issues should be dealt with together. The key is to place people (Residents) at the heart of the strategy; at the moment this is treated as secondary to the demands of developers. This truism is writ large all over the face of the city. York is becoming less green and more mean by the season.

Not just to go for the acceptable in terms of sustainability but the best. The evidence is that for the community this is a great investment. A Greener and Cleaner CityWhat is most important to you in achieving this outcome?I have no idea; whilst China, USA, India etc carry on what chance have Britain got in making a difference. A Greener and Cleaner CityWhat is most important to you in achieving this outcome?We must improve the air quality of York both the city as well as its out lying towns and villages that are also impacted by pollution because of York A Greener and Cleaner CityWhat is most important to you in achieving this outcome?More solar PV and battery storage on buildings A Greener and Cleaner CityWhat is most important to you in achieving this outcome?Improve street cleaning and perform more efficiently A Greener and Cleaner CityWhat is most important to you in achieving this outcome?!

Provide recycling facilities that are adequate for the size of the community. Look to it’s own housekeeping before preaching to others (what is your electricity bill I wonder? Your paper and plastic expenditure? Your mayoral cars and taxi bills?) A Greener and Cleaner CityWhat should the council do to help achieve this outcome?You need to take the cleanliness of this city seriously. It is filthy. for example, set a new initiative; if your dog poops and you don't pick it up, then community service of picking up dog poo for a week instead of signs threatening fines, that are never imposed nor regulated. If you litter, community service picking up rubbish for a week. Cleaner needs to mean that the rivers are not getting filled with the rubbish I see in them every day - bottles, cans and rubbish. This is THE filthiest city I have ever lived in, and I have lived in many across the UK and abroad. I'm sick and fed up of seeing glass all over the place - I have 2 dogs and it's only a matter of time before they tread on some. A Greener and Cleaner CityWhat should the council do to help achieve this outcome?Clearly defined and logical cycle paths, that are using both pedestrian and road area (though use of the latter as little/fewer as possible). A Greener and Cleaner CityWhat should the council do to help achieve this outcome?Set aside lane for rewilding. Plant more trees. Allow some grass verges to become havens for wildflowers. A Greener and Cleaner CityWhat should the council do to help achieve this outcome?Improve recycling. We have nowhere to compost. The council could coordinate composting schemes or (like many many many other councils around the country) collect compostable waste. The council should also improve the plastic and other waste it recycles. We rely on Sainsbury's to recycle our yoghurt pots. There is clearly demand for the council to collect our plastic (and other) recycling. The five other councils I've lived under for the past 3 years have all collected both a wider range of plastic and household food waste. It's shocking that CYC doesn't. A Greener and Cleaner CityWhat should the council do to help achieve this outcome?Produce, in partnership with all relevant stakeholders a plan for the city to realistically reduce levels of air pollution. A Greener and Cleaner CityWhat should the council do to help achieve this outcome?The council should support and encourage sustainable living in all areas (travel, housing, food etc); where possible, it should support the building of sustainable, low-energy housing and provide funding to make older housing stock more energy efficient; it should protect the city's existing natural environments and support/invest in efforts to increase the city's biodiversity (e.g. tree planting, sowing wildflower meadows); it should take the impact on the environment into consideration when assessing any planning applications; it should look at ways to support cleaner energy generation in the city; it should encourage local businesses to become greener; it should make necessary adaptations to the climate impacts that we are already feeling (e.g. flooding). A Greener and Cleaner CityWhat should the council do to help achieve this outcome?The Climate Change Policy and Scrutiny Committee is a good start, but their 'reach' seems to be limited (e.g. 1.5 Sustainability Officers), compared to the scale of issue at hand. Ensure more engagement and cross-concensus with the local plan (economy and place) would be useful. Appreciate the planners are already working on this, but transparency is crucial here. A Greener and Cleaner CityWhat should the council do to help achieve this outcome?See the proposals From [...] A Greener and Cleaner CityWhat should the council do to help achieve this outcome?make sure you set the standard in all areas A Greener and Cleaner CityWhat should the council do to help achieve this outcome?Provide regular up-to-date info to employees and to customers and schools/settings. Promote and support human rights and children's rights under the UNCRC in having a safe environment to live in. Promote rights-based approaches in schools, including Article 29, which include the environment as an area that education should be directed to. A Greener and Cleaner CityWhat should the council do to help achieve this outcome?Reward companies for donating unsold food, invest in compost collection for all households. Invest in better (and more reasonably priced) public transport. A Greener and Cleaner CityWhat should the council do to help achieve this outcome?Build low carbon and affordable housing and reduce vehicle emissions by reducing traffic in the city centre and providing more electric charging points etc. A Greener and Cleaner CityWhat should the council do to help achieve this outcome?As above. A Greener and Cleaner CityWhat should the council do to help achieve this outcome?Introduce kerbside recycling of compost inlet waste/food scraps. Promote recycling points/raise awareness of the less obvious recyclable options like crisp packets/toothbrushes/pens etc. Increase the range of products that can be included in current kerbside recycling (eg tetrapak, ready meal containers). Promote the use of compostable food/drinks containers to food outlets/takeaways and require one off city centre events to use this packaging . A Greener and Cleaner CityWhat should the council do to help achieve this outcome?No plans for new development passed unless zero carbon, and ensure York Central development is low carbon. A proper Zero Waste Strategy that includes taking action on reduction, re-use and repair as well as improved recycling. Public recycling bins in the city centre. A Greener and Cleaner CityWhat should the council do to help achieve this outcome?enable more materials to be recycled. Use the ideas and what works evidence from more progressive cities in UK and further afield. A Greener and Cleaner CityWhat should the council do to help achieve this outcome?Reduce traffic to the city, committment to maintaining clean buildings as well as clean streets, engage with suppliers for residents to "live smartly" i.e. grants for alternative heating solutions different to gas and electric A Greener and Cleaner CityWhat should the council do to help achieve this outcome?Reduce car mileage within the inner ring road. A Greener and Cleaner CityWhat should the council do to help achieve this outcome?Maintain the James Street recycling facility and ensure not regular emptying of recycling points in the local supermarket car parks which are often overflowing. A Greener and Cleaner CityWhat should the council do to help achieve this outcome?Create accessible green and clean spaces A Greener and Cleaner CityWhat should the council do to help achieve this outcome?Transport policy and ensure that York Central and all new development is zero carbon and designed to be walkable whilst retaining and expanding green spaces A Greener and Cleaner CityWhat should the council do to help achieve this outcome?Engage all key players in the City A Greener and Cleaner CityWhat should the council do to help achieve this outcome?Plant loads of trees and invest in green projects A Greener and Cleaner CityWhat should the council do to help achieve this outcome?Most notably the area around Clifford's Tower and St Georges Field should be converted to recreational parks and green spaces A Greener and Cleaner CityWhat should the council do to help achieve this outcome?Promoting what we can all do to protect our city. Encouraging low emission transport and less use of cars. Stop approving plans for housing on natural green areas if you want York to be a cleaner GREENER place. A Greener and Cleaner CityWhat should the council do to help achieve this outcome?That's obvious, but street water tanks hosing down the ginnels and walkways would be a top priority for me. A Greener and Cleaner CityWhat should the council do to help achieve this outcome?I would like to see the council encourage more people to recycle more. A Greener and Cleaner CityWhat should the council do to help achieve this outcome?1. The council will need to take radical steps to attempt to mitigate the potential of climate crisis. I have been motivated by many young people who have expressed their disquiet about the inaction of governments regarding climate change. Action has to be taken. A Greener and Cleaner CityWhat should the council do to help achieve this outcome?That we need to make sure through the planning process that all new development is zero carbon That we need a proper Zero Waste Strategy that includes taking action on reduction, re-use and repair as well as improved recycling A Greener and Cleaner CityWhat should the council do to help achieve this outcome?The council should make sure that this is a part of the agreement when new developments are planned and disregard proposals if they do not meet such green and sustainable standards. A Greener and Cleaner CityWhat should the council do to help achieve this outcome?There are fairly few trees inside York, mostly concentrated in Rowntree Park and a select few other roads. I would like to see them also dispersed throughout the city. Furthermore, the Yorkshire Dales and Moors offer many benefits and should be fully embraced as part of living in this particular city, and it is necessary to spend money to regenerate them. In the future they will help maintain air and water quality, as well as general health by encouraging exercise. Subsidising solar panels for use on roofs may help, but given that many properties in York are rented, there may not be that much incentive for landlords to place them. I think solar parks will marr the natural beauty of the Yorkshire landscape. A clever solution to this is necessary. Furthermore I would love to see more green-roofs, water barrels, public gardens and more sustainable and biodegradable and natural (wood, metal) materials in public facilities and businesses. York is already very good at encouraging sustainable living with its variety in second hand furniture, clothing and antique bookstores. Although I do not have any pets, I think there should be a place to let dog poop biodegrade naturally, as scooping it up in plastic is just adding an unnecessary problem. A Greener and Cleaner CityWhat should the council do to help achieve this outcome?Ban cars from larger area. Re wild areas of green space. Allow wild flowers to flourish around walls. Adopt pollinator friendly policies. A Greener and Cleaner CityWhat should the council do to help achieve this outcome?More public transport Car reduction measures More trees and natural areas - community led Incentivise car sharing, cycling and walking Better recycling facilities Incentivise waste reduction, especially plastics, from households and business A Greener and Cleaner CityWhat should the council do to help achieve this outcome?Give every house food waste bins for inside and outside like many councils across the country do. Free food waste bags, as seen in Manchester, would also make this more accessible to poor homes who can't afford to pay for the bags. A Greener and Cleaner CityWhat should the council do to help achieve this outcome?Prioritise investment in effective waste management, and also in educating and encouraging people how to recycle more effectively. A Greener and Cleaner CityWhat should the council do to help achieve this outcome?Monitor air pollution. Facilitate switch from fossil fuels to renewable energy. A Greener and Cleaner CityWhat should the council do to help achieve this outcome?to keep up the momentum to encourage to walk and cycle A Greener and Cleaner CityWhat should the council do to help achieve this outcome?Much more recycling. Look at using road surfaces that lower traffic noise. Enable electric cars. A Greener and Cleaner CityWhat should the council do to help achieve this outcome?Well I'd keep a sharp lookout for tram developments. I mean radical ones. York is not suitable for typical trams...it would spoil the cityscape...it would leave little room for service vehicles....it probably wouldnt get the traffic volume... but if manufacturers had freedom to reduce the size of trams and tracks and thus cost it would be remarkable but as always we are constrained by whats considered "normal" and standard in our world. Shame. A Greener and Cleaner CityWhat should the council do to help achieve this outcome?Bye laws to encourage or determine the use of electric transport and charging bays for electric vehicles in car parks. A Greener and Cleaner CityWhat should the council do to help achieve this outcome?The council needs to invest better within the actual city centre. There is a lack of electric charging points for electric vehicles, this needs to be remedied and make the city centre fit for the future. Too much refuse is thrown on the floor as there are far from adequate refuse bins of an adequate size located within the city. Bins for the disposal of dog poo should not be mixed with recycling or refuse. Recycling bins should be located within the city centre to encourage visitors and residents to dispose of the refuse in a more sustainable way. A Greener and Cleaner CityWhat should the council do to help achieve this outcome?we need public recycling bins in the city centre. A Greener and Cleaner CityWhat should the council do to help achieve this outcome?Reconsider plastic recycling. A Greener and Cleaner CityWhat should the council do to help achieve this outcome?make the park and rides long stay. Any overnight visitor can not use the park and ride, so if they arrove by car they have to bring their car into the town centre. A Greener and Cleaner CityWhat should the council do to help achieve this outcome?Make it easy to be green and financially costly not to be. Make it easier and more pleasant not to be in a car. Ensure all new buildings in the city reaches the highest eco-standards and has renewable energy as a matter of course Make being green pay A Greener and Cleaner CityWhat should the council do to help achieve this outcome?help residents with home insulation. ensure at planning all new homes meet the highest levels of insulation and energy efficiency possible. Ensure new developments and their occupants have the capacity for sustainable travel and businesses and schools implement travel plans to reduce emissions in the city. Encourage solar panels for residents - even in conservation areas - and increase electric vehicle charging infrastructure. A Greener and Cleaner CityWhat should the council do to help achieve this outcome?Bigger bins A Greener and Cleaner CityWhat should the council do to help achieve this outcome?Be more bold A Greener and Cleaner CityWhat should the council do to help achieve this outcome?Pressure big polluters in our city to clean up their act - such as Nestle. They supply many jobs to the city, but we cannot allow this fact to stop us from making them accountable to their actions. Ensure new businesses opening or moving to the city are held accountable for their carbon emissions and offer preference and financial incentives to companies with exemplary sustainable practises. Invest in cheaper, greener and more reliable public transport - and consider levying a congestion charge in city centre. Continue to invest in and encourage city-wide cycling. Maintain York's green spaces which not only help to provide clean air, store carbon and provide habitat for wildlife - but are also one of York's most attractive features. Improve local recycling facilities - York is way behind on this! We need compost recycling urgently, a more comprehensive plastics collection and replacement bins offered to residents who have had theirs stolen or broken (use of bad bins results in spilled recycling waste littering the streets). A tougher stance on flytipping, littering and irresponsible waste (such as failing to recycle) - issuing warnings, fines or even criminal proceeding for repeat offenders. Businesses and residents should be encouraged to switch to greener energy providers - perhaps the council could help with providing information on how to do this (or even practical help - particular for the elderly, etc). The council should lead by example and ensure all council offices run on greener energy, encourage minimal car use, minimise paper use and ensure all paper is recycled, etc. A Greener and Cleaner CityWhat should the council do to help achieve this outcome?Make transport more affordable to those on a low income. Currently it can be cheaper for a family to get a taxi than the bus. Schemes to incentivise walking and cycling would also be welcome. Public transport is often unreliable which makes people avoid using it - improved reliability is key to encouraging people out of their cars. Green spaces need maintenance so resources need to be prioritised for these. A Greener and Cleaner CityWhat should the council do to help achieve this outcome?CoYC will be central to this plan. It needs to provide sufficient staff to make it happen, and train ALL staff in achieving the objectives. It also needs to provide sufficient funding to invest in the zero carbon products and services that will be needed to achieve the goal. This may mean higher council tax but the council should be bold in promoting this. A Greener and Cleaner CityWhat should the council do to help achieve this outcome?Make it easy for people to 'choose green', penalise the opposite choices A Greener and Cleaner CityWhat should the council do to help achieve this outcome?Limit taxis and cars during the day 9-8 within city walls or have congestion charges! Think London. We are a small city with way too many cars! A Greener and Cleaner CityWhat should the council do to help achieve this outcome?One bin, processed on site - would it be cheaper to take it Scarborough for sorting? Bigger bins in town - if they can't be emptied as often as before then make them bigger or put another bin next to them - can more Gobbler solar powered self-compressing bins be installed? More community gardens, more corporate partnerships encouraging businesses in the city to play an active part in maintaining it and making it a cleaner place. Work with St Nick's to develop additional ways of delivering low-carbon services. Invite major environmental organisations and events to York and take their advice on board. Could we hold events like the Velo conference here - and use it to launch schemes like scooter and bicycle hire in York? We should look to be attractive for sustainable reasons - heavily deter the stag and hen do's that are consuming our policing and highways budgets, and perpetuating the blandness and emptiness of our high streets! Let us be known for cycling tours, historic walks, galleries, monuments, tuc-tuc taxis, not drinking, loutishness, filthy streets and idiots jumping in the rivers! A Greener and Cleaner CityWhat should the council do to help achieve this outcome?Establish a proper Zero Waste Strategy that includes taking action on reduction, re-use and repair as well as improved recycling; public recycling bins in the city centre. A Greener and Cleaner CityWhat should the council do to help achieve this outcome?Bring in regulations about planning for sustainability. Bring in Zero Waste strategy. Provide the necessary infrastructure eg bins, recycling, repair cafes A Greener and Cleaner CityWhat should the council do to help achieve this outcome?Put its money where its mouth is. A Greener and Cleaner CityWhat should the council do to help achieve this outcome?laws that work? A Greener and Cleaner CityWhat should the council do to help achieve this outcome?give one free parking permit for each household A Greener and Cleaner CityWhat should the council do to help achieve this outcome?Reduce traffic in the city centre; encourage cycling and walking - improve cycle routes, making them a priority and traffic free. Improve public transport round the city - there are areas (eg Leeman Road area) that have a poor bus service, particularly in the evening/post 8pm. Improve doorstep recycling - there is limited plastic recycling, tetrapak, etc, meaning people have to travel elsewhere in the city to recycle anything that isn't plastic bottles - other areas/countries manage to recycle far more. Public recycling bins - a couple of years ago, new bins were installed all over York for 'litter' and 'dog waste'! No facility for recycling at all - this seemed such a wasted opportunity. Recycling should be available throughout the city centre particularly. Look at use of renewable energy - encourage/reward use of solar etc Make council run initiatives solar based. Water fountains to discourage single use plastic water bottles All new business and residential developments should be designed to be green and clean - solar panels on all buildings, passivhaus, grey water collection, etc A Greener and Cleaner CityWhat should the council do to help achieve this outcome?Every project document should start with "As we are facing a Climate emergency and York will be carbon neutral by 2030 this project will reduce emissions by..." If it can't answer that question then it goes back to the drawing board. We need to reduce Car use making zero carbon transport the first option for everybody. Make facilities available locally so the need for car trips is reduced. Encourage shops and businesses in local communities. Lead by example and encourage remote working within the council either at home or in local community environments. Educate the public about using technology to remote work instead of traveling. Only allow carbon neutral building for any type of building private or public. Encourage reduce, reuse, recycle. Encourage the start of local repair shops or recycling facilities. State clearly how all rubbish in city center bins is recycled to encourage knowledge of recycling. Add a carbon tax to all visitors. Let them know it will go to make York carbon neutral to offset their travel. A Greener and Cleaner CityWhat should the council do to help achieve this outcome?Add trees to our streets and parks and green spaces. More bins in the city centre. A Greener and Cleaner CityWhat should the council do to help achieve this outcome?See above in 14 A Greener and Cleaner CityWhat should the council do to help achieve this outcome?All new buildings should be required to be carbon neutral. Adapt all council properties to carbon neutral - providing green jobs for the construction sector. Support local eco-businesses. Pressure York businesses and organistions (e.g. Persimmon, U of York, York St John's U, Nestle, Church of England, English Heritage, ) to recognise the climate emergency. A Greener and Cleaner CityWhat should the council do to help achieve this outcome?Ensure that all CYC properties have air source heat pumps, solar energy etc to lead the way. Ensure clear advice is available to businesses and residents from CYC teams (UK gov website info can be confusing!) A Greener and Cleaner CityWhat should the council do to help achieve this outcome?Follow strict criteria about efficiency of new council buildings and affordable housing stock. Find solutions that bring in money in the long-term (like solar panels on roofs of council buildings). A Greener and Cleaner CityWhat should the council do to help achieve this outcome?as above A Greener and Cleaner CityWhat should the council do to help achieve this outcome?Reduce speed limits in centre, ban diesel taxis and cars, especially in the centre; strongly incentivise electric buses and taxis, and encourage electric cars. More protected cycle lanes, more pedestrianised areas. Plant more trees.....especially on walking routes. A Greener and Cleaner CityWhat should the council do to help achieve this outcome?Devote funds to a campaign with posters etc about reducing waste. A Greener and Cleaner CityWhat should the council do to help achieve this outcome?Plant more trees, continue investing in electric public transport. Invest in segregated cycle lanes. A Greener and Cleaner CityWhat should the council do to help achieve this outcome?Introduce policies that would enable it, especially incentivising ones A Greener and Cleaner CityWhat should the council do to help achieve this outcome?Ban high emissions and polutting vehicels. Discourage car use. Encourage visitors to visit the city by train. More buses; better cycle lanes; More trees; sensitive and enviromental developments in housing and commercial buildings A Greener and Cleaner CityWhat should the council do to help achieve this outcome?Cycling paths - more and secure/safe. Cycle parking - more and secure. Significant upgrade on re-cycling - currently capturing a small proportion of recyclable waste. Grants for solar power A Greener and Cleaner CityWhat should the council do to help achieve this outcome?Fruit trees planted on public land, free garden waste mass collection service twice a year to encourage good gardens that help wildlife, signs by bits of land with interesting natural growing (eg the forest like pieces around parks etc. Where white umbellifers grow every year, why not put little identification signs up like at national trust telling people what those wildflowers are? It would be very inspiring to see a city that is actively proud of its wildflowers and green spaces like that A Greener and Cleaner CityWhat should the council do to help achieve this outcome?Povide stronger support to One Planet York so that York Council can develop the most effective partnership work possible and not just see it's role as being within its own activities A Greener and Cleaner CityWhat should the council do to help achieve this outcome?wind farms or river energy? (we're not a sunny city, but we've got plenty of rivers and wind!) A Greener and Cleaner CityWhat should the council do to help achieve this outcome?subsidize the buses, and make the park-and-rides free A Greener and Cleaner CityWhat should the council do to help achieve this outcome?Have a sustainable and more inclusive recycling system A Greener and Cleaner CityWhat should the council do to help achieve this outcome?Improve recycling and provide compost bins A Greener and Cleaner CityWhat should the council do to help achieve this outcome?I stay home when i cannot get through town due to regressive "pedestrians only" CC. I could drive with my BB but even then i cannot get to Coppergate, pretty much at all. I am trapped at home. Blue Badge biking and e-bike purchase schemes More buses, more routes, free buses, til midnight safer wider bike paths. A Greener and Cleaner CityWhat should the council do to help achieve this outcome?Air quality - Attempts to remind drivers to turn their engine off is of course a good start, and park and ride options are good. Many (most) busses are still heavy polluters however, although these of course may do more good then harm in terms of removing more cars from the road. Air quality in schools and public buildings - more plants should be installed to soak up pollutants (see the NASA clean air study). Chemical based air fresheners and the like should be banned. The train station is dreadfully polluted, grass, or other vegetation should be planted between the tracks to soak some of it up. Install extractor type fans in the roof space. Park and Rides - these are excellent ideas but the traffic can make their appeal wane. I know of people stuck in gridlocked traffic who would otherwise have driven in on an alternative route. Rock and a hard place. More edible gardens and championing locally grown foods (especially plant based). Promote vertical gardens for city dwellers etc. Promote nature reserves better in schools etc. It is no secret that the biggest wins in environmental terms come from shunning animal produce. Local farmers should be better supported to farm other items and other food produce. Retro fit more places with solar panels etc. A Greener and Cleaner CityWhat should the council do to help achieve this outcome?Listen to all the campaign groups and communicate the same message, not 'reduce' emissions but go carbon-free as soon as possible. A Greener and Cleaner CityWhat should the council do to help achieve this outcome?Help fund renewable energy (solar and wind) and insulation for homes, including not just loft insulation but double glazing and cavity insulation.

A Greener and Cleaner CityWhat should the council do to help achieve this outcome?Make sure we have a clear baseline asap. Support and encourage city wide partnerships to achieve zero carbon. Take action in all policy areas. A Greener and Cleaner CityWhat should the council do to help achieve this outcome?The council needs to explain to citizens why tackling the climate emergency and other environmental issues is so important and then get on with taking the measures necessary to tackle an emergency even if these measures require people to make significant changes to their lifestyle. A Greener and Cleaner CityWhat should the council do to help achieve this outcome?Be bold in banning polluting traffic and creating traffic-free areas. A Greener and Cleaner CityWhat should the council do to help achieve this outcome?Review all its policies A Greener and Cleaner CityWhat should the council do to help achieve this outcome?Either free up small areas so owners can build something to live in small and eco . Or build a lovely place where people can remain in place they have lived all their life .There are 4 council homes in Bishopthorpe/ Copmanthorpe/ caster Appleton all sold off for the elderly and most in there are not from the village ?

A Greener and Cleaner CityWhat should the council do to help achieve this outcome?Better bus network and frequency and reliability of services Open up closed railway lines from the suburbs A Greener and Cleaner CityWhat should the council do to help achieve this outcome?Cambridge City Council "gave" a number of electric cars to a local taxi company, according to one cab driver. I suspect it was more complicated than that, but why not ask CCC what they did? A Greener and Cleaner CityWhat should the council do to help achieve this outcome?An example could be having a small train/cable car to run down the length of the river from Rawcliffe Bar park and ride into the city centre. This in itself could be a tourist attraction or use electric boats to transfer people into town. Large coaches parking in the city centre, such as that in Gillygate cause problems not only to the quality of the air but also to the structures within york that are often damaged by impact. A Greener and Cleaner CityWhat should the council do to help achieve this outcome?Start working to this end A Greener and Cleaner CityWhat should the council do to help achieve this outcome?More charging points in car parks, also some way of charging cars in terraced streets where residents park at night, this could be another common infrastructure initiative where the cables are put in by the council and/or company’s that will install and sell you car charging equipment and power, fast chargers require 3 phase supply and this is not easily available to house holders so could be classed as another utility A Greener and Cleaner CityWhat should the council do to help achieve this outcome?I am unconvinced that CYC understands the scope and scale of what they voted for. The reality of the climate emergency must inform every decision at every level if we are to have any hope of coming close to Carbon Neutral in 10 years. What have you done so far? Can we at least see your calculations on key carbon indicators for York? In fact, have you even decided which are the key carbon indicators for York?? You've already used up a significant chunk of the limited time self-allocated to this target, and as a citizen I've seen nothing concrete yet. Worse, you seem to continually make decisions in direct conflict with your stated commitment. A Greener and Cleaner CityWhat should the council do to help achieve this outcome?Protect green spaces. Recycle more items. Stop charging for a second green bin. Make it less profitable for people to sell off parts of their gardens to developers. Less new buildings by the river.

Encourage compost making in our properties A Greener and Cleaner CityWhat should the council do to help achieve this outcome?Consider every application for building most carefully A Greener and Cleaner CityWhat should the council do to help achieve this outcome?CO is always around us. even humans breathing cause the problem. Neutralising it efficiently, is the way forward. We are already controlling emissions but have lost our way in neutralisation. We have become too focused on the car and not the whole picture. A Greener and Cleaner CityWhat should the council do to help achieve this outcome?Ban petrol and diesel vehicles from the city. A Greener and Cleaner CityWhat should the council do to help achieve this outcome?Waste disposal is a source of frustration. There should be an urban composting scheme, like they have in Oxford, Edinburgh, and some London boroughs. This is generally more efficient than having everyone use a personal composter in their garden. I don't know what the council can legally do to restrict the types of plastics sold in York, but working with local businesses to reduce plastics or at least non-recyclable containers would be helpful. Methods for composting dog poo would be helpful. There needs to be more wild spaces. Some of the strays/parks need larger areas that are left unmowed. This will help with reduce flooding. Planting more trees helps carbon capture and can reduce flooding. In some places, planting fruit trees (cherries, apples/pears) that the public are allowed to pick also improves the quality of life. Make residents more aware of the parks and greenspaces, perhaps with volunteer clean ups. Use the pavements and parking lots use paving stones with holes that allow grass to grow ("grass block pavestones"?). They look nicer and and better for the environment. A Greener and Cleaner CityWhat should the council do to help achieve this outcome?Better recycling strategy. Not just throw everything in the same place once quota is met. A Greener and Cleaner CityWhat should the council do to help achieve this outcome?Green space, carbon sinks, community composting, trees, hedges, orchards, living walls and living roofs.

Promote Freecycling days (communities have their own but CYC could arrange a quarterly day to promote people to do so. The decision to remove funding for community skips once a quarter has caused an increase in flytipping in our area when before it was a much utlised service. If you restored this service and coordinated the skips better, if a skip is not totally filled you could move it to another area to maximise it getting filled. A Greener and Cleaner CityWhat should the council do to help achieve this outcome?Plant as much as possible, native tress ,wildflowers, mow verges and things less, or manage them differently, create more ULEV zones or congestion charges for civil traffic excluding deliveries for businesses etc, or disabled taxi services.

A Greener and Cleaner CityWhat should the council do to help achieve this outcome?Se last answer and don’t just go for what seems right by a hand full of people! York has a history of trying to do the right things but then change them when they don’t work, wasting money doing so! A Greener and Cleaner CityWhat should the council do to help achieve this outcome?Implement more recycling bins, centres and schemes - food waste bins, more differentiated recycling, city-centre water fountains and more recycling bins in city centre A Greener and Cleaner CityWhat should the council do to help achieve this outcome?Supply proper wheelie bins for all recycling. More electric charging points for vehicles. Enforcement of no idling legislation - buses are still sat at stops with the engine running!! The Council should lead by example and get rid of all the old diesel works vans etc and replace with electric vehicles! Don't grant planning permission in areas subject to flooding or that help prevent flooding. LED street lighting. Clean up the city's streets they are beginning to look grubby and unwelcoming.

A Greener and Cleaner CityWhat should the council do to help achieve this outcome?Support electric vehicles with charging points all over the city. A Greener and Cleaner CityWhat should the council do to help achieve this outcome?Give people small amounts of cash to people for recycling,, would give the homeless something to do and a bit extra cash also keeps the streets cleaner. A Greener and Cleaner CityWhat should the council do to help achieve this outcome?- Cut cars in the city centre and major routes during rush hours. - Create more bus lanes so buses don't end up sitting in traffic. - Pressure First Buses to cut bus fares to make the bus more affordable (£1.90 to go a single mile is a joke). - Encourage drivers to shut off their engines when sitting in queues. - Make life easier for pedestrians by reducing the wait times at big junctions. (Blossom Street takes FOREVER to cross, and when it is pedestrians' turn, they get about 10 seconds to move...) - More, wider, and more clearly marked cycle lanes. - More bicycle parking in the city centre. - wider pavements in the city centre - divert traffic to a one-way system through the city to keep it moving. - Close streets to cars more often, especially weekends. - Stop rinsing the public for residents parking schemes.

Don't build houses make it park or play area with seats etc. Its better than what it is A Greener and Cleaner CityWhat should the council do to help achieve this outcome?Punish litter louts and fly tippers, to keep the city tidy. CYC needs to look into providing more diverse recycling options (e.g. not all plastics can be recycled at the moment!). If not possible to offer as part of the doorstep collection, at least provide more options at the recycling centres. Could council open more recycling facilities? How are the council offices heated etc., it would be great if the energy needed came from sustainable sources.

Creating homes and World-class infrastructureWhat is most important to you in achieving this outcome?I think creating affordable housing needs to be the first priority - the housing in York is ridiculously expensive; to rent and to buy Creating homes and World-class infrastructureWhat is most important to you in achieving this outcome?Affordable homes - to rent and buy - that are of a more realistic size (shoeboxes on two floors...that then need expanding/adding to because there is a lack of affordability to move!).

These should flexible and affordable to meet the varying needs of residents and with mixed tenure options included. Also world class infrastructure can mean many things so the city should define what it wants. However, and as a starter, ALL the city should have high quality mobile and fast broadband access.

This not only relates to aestehtic, but actual quality of the build relating to noise, thermal insultation, connectivity).

Creating homes and World-class infrastructureWhat is most important to you in achieving this outcome?You've mixed up two questions here. Affordable homes aren't going to be built by developers unless they see adequate profits. I think you need a not-for-profit housing association that builds and converts properties that could be for rent or for purchase, and if for purchase with lots of covenants so they can't be turned into early profit like 'right to buy' which is a disaster. York Central and Castle Gateway are good examples of everyone dragging their heels while everyone gets 'consulted' and nothing gets done. Quality consultation doesn't need to last so long that people give up in despair. Creating homes and World-class infrastructureWhat is most important to you in achieving this outcome?I would like to see more accessible homes built for people with disabilities, so that they can be independent. Creating homes and World-class infrastructureWhat is most important to you in achieving this outcome?1. Creating homes is admirable, but who then buys / uses them. York is very popular with tourists and many of properties within York are let off as holiday lets. This means that they are not available for those who live and work locally. 2. My impression from the planning department is that houses or flats are given permission and then built, but no thought is given to car parking for those living at these new buildings. These cars are then parked on local roads so taking up spaces of residents who are already living in York.

In the 2019 this is far from acceptable. It is interesting to note that the providers are citing the reason for the lack of fibre optics as being York City council. It’s amazing how the city council will allow various monuments, and listed buildings to be adapted when it suits their needs.

Fast wifi - in the village it can be a little slow at times Creating homes and World-class infrastructureWhat is most important to you in achieving this outcome?Young people are priced out of york both to buy a house and to rent. House prices for rent need to be kept to a level of affordability for families and this is already a non starter for a lit of families. £900/£1000 a month for rental property is putting too much stress on families. There is very little social housing and no chance of getting on the council list if you work. M daughter and her partner work hard but as young parents they are paying £1000 month for a property that isn't theirs and there is no chance for a house of their own.

We are in danger of becoming either a) a mere extension of the London commuter belt b) a city full of empty investment properties c) a tourist town made up of full-time Airbnbs. Creating homes and World-class infrastructureWhat is most important to you in achieving this outcome?Ensure these developments are routed in communities and integrated rather than creating disparate communities and displacement. Developments such as Derwenthorpe and Hungate are bad examples where this has happened. New developments need to be inclusive for all and any social housing needs to avoid cherry picking which tenants are welcome. Relationships with developers and landlords needs to be more accountable to ensure people enjoy homes which have been built with care and quality, avoiding cutting corners that leads to follow up repair work which can be time consuming and stressful. Investment in infrastructure is an excellent idea - but people need to have choice in this. For example, Derwenthorpe has developed a central eco friendly heating system that was sold to residents as cheaper and more efficient - it has proved to be neither of these things and people are unable to switch energy provider so trapped in high prices with unreliable service. Broadband connection is a similar situation on Derwenthorpe - with one provider and package which is reasonable, however connectivity is often unreliable.

Ensuring that new homes built are done so in a sustainable way - not threatening our green spaces, with greener building practises and designed to be fuel efficient to heat. Improve liveability for actual, full-time residents with adequate school, green space and GP provision to new and expanding communities. Deincentivise through taxation full-time, whole-house Airbnbs (which is very different from renting out a spare room in a family home), second homes in the city and empty investment properties. Lower council tax for low-to-medium income residents. Help renters and landlords alike understand their rights by providing free information and advice.

Too much housing in York is either 'luxury' flats or student accommodation. Both necessary, but not at the expense of York residents who need to live and work in the city.

Creating homes and World-class infrastructureWhat should the council do to help achieve this outcome?Provide green spaces for children to play, trees for children to climb, swings. A plastic play park is not the idea, adventure is. Tree wardens, homeless possibly to help in this regard and benefit by being paid. Opportunities for the homeless to learn and have a roof over their heads, not in communal spaces. A room of ones own! Technology to inform this crisis which is a blight on the city and repels people.

Deter leasehold arrangements as these are known to be traps on new build premises (at least). Tenants/occupiers should be policed more when it comes to untidiness and or noise/antisocial behaviours. Homelessness - this has increased dramatically over the years, though many homeless people I have seen myself have in fact got a home and are "professional beggars". Many however are genuinely homeless and need help, but nowhere in the city do we promote the fact that giving homeless people money does nothing but fuel their addiction (I have seen homeless people drug dealing on many an occasion). An ad campaign to advise people of the social ills of giving money despite it seeming sensible is needed, if anything, people should donate food. When house prices rise, homelessness and poverty increases. Only the banks are the winners. Help to elect, erm, help to buy has also seen the asking price or properties increase by the additional amount the government contributes. This is taxpayers money transferred straight to the hands of developers and landlords via artificially higher prices. Ridiculous.

Restrict the number of student-only construction. This is just a scheme to profit off of students and it hurts students and non-student residents. Students should either live on housing provided by the universities or rent regular homes. Having lived in tenement flats in Scotland and in London, I've found them to be more spacious than the worker bee duplex villas that are common in much of York.

Safe Communities and culture for allWhat should the council do to help achieve this outcome?I think the York's problems with public disturbances are largely due to 2 factors: 1. A lack of adequate mental health and social care provision for the most vulnerable (including rough sleepers). 2. The hard drinking, party town culture encouraged by York Races and the idea of York at a stag and hen party destination. The former issue can be tackled by increased investment in out social care system and by helping community groups and charities already doing great work (but who are overstretched by ever increasing numbers of people in distress). The latter I am less sure about how to help. I understand that the hospitality sector brings in a lot of revenue and provides many jobs in the city. And I do not like the idea of imposing any kind of draconian drinking laws. However, York city centre is often not a welcoming or safe-feeling environment on a Saturday night... Safe Communities and culture for allWhat should the council do to help achieve this outcome?The cultural strategy needs to be truly citywide, encompassing and including all communities - not just middle class interests. Learning from place based approaches which are embedded in local communities needs to be incorporated in to human centred design of strategic planning. We need to devolve power to people in communities to codesign the future of public services and the city. Commissioning models need to move from competitive market tendering towards collaboration.

More community policing with community service for culprits. Educate them, set them to being part of the cultural heritage, taking tours and guiding others. Employment with a living wage is key.

Safe Communities and culture for allWhat should the council do to help achieve this outcome?Increase bike access. Safe Communities and culture for allWhat should the council do to help achieve this outcome?Homelessness - this has increased dramatically though many homeless people I have seen myself have in fact got a home and are "professional beggars". Many however are genuinely homeless and need help, but nowhere in the city do we promote the fact that giving homeless people money does nothing but fuel their addiction (I have seen homeless people dealing on many an occasion). An ad campaign to advise people of the social ills of this despite it seeming sensible is needed, if anything people should donate food. City centre - alleyways such as the ones either side of Lakeland are effectively a latrine and urine stagnates there continuously, there are also faeces observed. There should almost be a means to mildly flush the area, perhaps using stored rainwater. Litter - there is a lot of litter in York in the shape of empty cans and bottles, the perpetrators should be fined on the spot and made an example of. Playgrounds - many playgrounds are decrepit and at least in need of a lick of paint. Swings are especially popular but in short supply. The swings at Victoria bar are dreadful, about 3 feet long, Victoria bar playground should be double that area in length. Empty premises - there are a lot of empty premises and all business owners I talk to complain of the high rents. Retail is on it's back at present and the cheap pound will only sustain foreign tourists for so long. This entire strategy needs an overhaul. Some empty premises should be converted into indoor play areas for kids as the ones out of town are a taxi (or bus) away. This helps to keep kids active and also provides a welcome outlet for children visiting with their parents. There are parks available granted, but how often is it raining? Safe Communities and culture for allWhat should the council do to help achieve this outcome?Support networks and local community groups. Set up a Kyra Project for men??? More adult learning opportunities as well.

Treat people unfairly and they loose their respect for you. Look at the problems the Police have. They have watched too much TV and throw their weight about and get a violent response. If you treat a person with respect, you generally will receive it back. The culture will then become the normal and eventually reduce a general lack of respect, which is causing most of the problems. Fighting, property damage etc. Safe Communities and culture for allWhat should the council do to help achieve this outcome?More street wardens or police in the evening. Safe Communities and culture for allWhat should the council do to help achieve this outcome?When you have initiatives to tackle antisocial stag/hen parties then York is a much nicer place to go to at the weekend. Stag and Hen parties, whilst bringing money to the City are absolutely appalling when you want to go into the City at the weekend. I cannot think of anyone who enjoys the City of a weekend as a result, and we all actively avoid the area. Leeds implemented a crackdown (and even Newcastle) VERY successfully. We have a beautiful city, ruined by those who want a nice, heritage weekend city break, when they see the appalling behaviour. The Police do not have the resources to tackle. CYC needs to make York a less attractive Stag/Hen destination or at least have more NEO's to support NYP. Have a larger hostel for homelessness. I used to know and speak to homeless members of society in York but in the last 2 years I don't even recognise faces. There are many from out of area, plus we know there is a county lines issue. There need to be more NEO's to direct homeless to a hostel. It is awful to walk through Coney Street and surrounding streets seeing tents and sleeping bags. Plus we have a drug problem so this is not ideal. All in all, a visitor to York (particularly at the weekend) experiences screaming stag and hen parties staggering on the streets and homelessness in every street doorway. This is not an exaggeration. Safe Communities and culture for allWhat should the council do to help achieve this outcome?Doesn’t need improving - feel safe at present Safe Communities and culture for allWhat should the council do to help achieve this outcome?Remove fascist stickets when they appear in the city quicker to stop toxic ideologies spreading; like the Hundred Handers.

York is no longer a place where you can bring your family for a meal on a Friday or Saturday night. The drunken behaviour and foul language that visitors are bombarded with is a disgrace and an embarrassment. Bring back the council's successful alleygating scheme and ensure it is properly resourced.

Safe Communities and culture for allWhat should the council do to help achieve this outcome?Invest in activities and communities so that people are out and about and visible in their neighbourhood.

I am 25, so absolutely not just 'some grumpy old woman that hates fun'. But the drinking, especially on a weekend, is completely out of control. Music is blaring all night long, people are sick in the streets, litter is strewn everywhere. Entering the city center on a Saturday, Sunday or Monday morning is like entering somewhere a bomb has just gone off. This drinking in the center also means that drunk people (who have no control over their volume) walk down my street screaming, singing, shouting, vomiting and even stealing our milk.

If you had a 24 hour, or extended hour, call centre, they could triage and pass on the issue to the relevant department. Residents find it frustrating to be faced with "if you want to report flytipping then contact this person", "If you want to report an antisocial CYC tenant then contact that person, but fill in THIS diary sheet, not the diary sheet for flytipping!. All they want to do is report once and it gets passed to ASB Hub, HMO or NYP (or all three). They also need followup, instead of feeling it is a one way process that they report something and don't get anything back from CYC. For Community projects, there should be an application which then gets passed to all the relevant departments for their comments, passed back to the Community group for answers and then everyone in a room if necessary to talk it out for agreement. Your departments either do not work with each other, or do not talk to each other which is extremely inefficient. A private business could not effectively work this way so why should CYC be able to do so?

Please stop departments working in SILO. Please stop stag/hen parties/drunken behaviour ruining what is a beatiful city and speak to other cities on par with ours how they tackle issues. I want York to be a beatiful place to live, work and reside. You also need to understand that we are "volunteered out". So many people are volunteers who have taken over what were once CYC services. Whenever a new initiative takes place, in particular a Community project I am trying to establish, CYC is asking for a comittment forever which I possibly can't have our group to commit to. We can only focus in the here and now, and promises for the here and now, and have a constitutionalised group. This absolutely dents community commitment and involvement. This stems from your internal departments not working together, and not even being enthusiastic. I can understand if there are some restrictions or concerns, but to be met with a wall of negativeness when you are trying to do something for your community, rather than a "that's great, we have concerns about this, lets work together to find a solution" it has a huge negative impact on a community which wants to make things work. Housing policy needs to change. Our community would like to see more profiling when placing people in tenancies, more harsh penalties if they don't behave appropriately or are convicted by the police, and more flexible tenancies that CYC can act upon swiftly. We would like to see priority for not just armed forces (which has not been demonstrated in our area) but for Key Workers, particularly NHS who have to compete with students for affordable accommodation.

Everything should be quantifiable whether that be via physical achievements or targets/measures that can be monitored/reviewed for other less tangible outcomes.
