References 18 Introduction The Camley Street Neighbourhood Forum was designated by the London Borough of Camden in February 2013, following the Localism Act 2011. The Forum has since formed a Community Land Trust, now constituted as a limited company called Camley Street Sustainability Zone Limited. The Forum is in the process of developing the Camley Street Neighbourhood Development Plan (CSNDP). In support of the development of the CSNDP, an extensive survey was conducted in 2015 of Elm Village residents and of businesses in the adjoining Cedar Way Industrial Estate (see map and description below). The survey elicited residents’ and businesses’ comments on the area as it stands now, and on their desires for its future. These comments constitute part of the evidence base for the CSNDP, and have enabled the plan’s authors to identify the core issues the community wishes to address. These issues can be summarised as follows: reinforcing the role of the area as a place of employment, with the current range of businesses providing a core of established enterprises; stitching into the area the social infrastructure required to improve well-being and quality of life in the neighbourhood for residents; the provision of a range of housing that is genuinely affordable to local people; improvements to the quality and range of green infrastructure in the neighbourhood.
