needs for the ‘intensive’ approach to Neighbourhood
Management; 3) The intensive Neighbourhood Management approach is implemented for the Heath Park Estate at an early stage from resources through Capital Ambition (£100k) and Neighbourhood Renewal Fund (£30k), and that Ward Councillor Mrs Linda Reason be involved in the process.
