Pledge 7: Enhancing life in Salford
We will ensure that Salford is a city that's good to live in with a quality environment and decent, affordable homes which meet the needs of local people.
This will be achieved by:
- Ensuring the cleanliness and maintenance of the city
- Giving residents in the city a choice of quality housing to meet their needs
- Promoting sustainability through appropriate development, conservation and improvement of the city's environment
- Providing an accessible and sustainable recycling service
- Improving the city's highway and transportation network
Headline targets in 2007/2008
- Ensure no more than 20 bins per 100,000 are missed during waste collection
- Ensure 99% of residents have access to kerbside recycling
- Increase the percentage of park users satisfied with local authority parks to 90%
- Implement the housing stock options identified last year to draw down £400 million of decent homes funding
- Continue to develop Housing Enforcement by introducing Landlord Licensing, Health and Safety Ratings and the production of a new Empty Property Strategy
- Develop a core strategy that sets out the long term spatial vision for the city, and the overall strategy for delivering that vision
- Develop an integrated Transport Policy for the city
