Dear All,
The Local Boundaries Commission have announced their plans for the Haringey Boundariea from 2022.
Amazing News!!!! After pressure from local residents, they have decided to keep Alexandra Ward, albeit with two councillors, rather than three. And, the ward will he remained Alexandra Park.
Thank you to everyone who wrote in and submitted plans to the Boundaries Commission as to why Alexandra Park deserves to have its own ward and representation. Also, massive thanks to Annabel and Alex, as the Boundaries Commission used their excellent proposals!

Great news.
This is excellent news, very pleased to see that my road is staying put! Well done to everyone who sent in a submission.
This is really good. For once trying to participate has had a concrete result. Thanks also to everyone who supported and encouraged the effort. It"s important I suppose that the arguments in our area all generally pointed in the same direction.
That's incredible! Thanks for this news, Nick. Amazing news, and it's the residents wot done it.
Indeed! As we said at the Boundaries meeting we had at St Andrews Church, they do listen to residents (occasionally!)
I need to review the whole document, but it's a nice little early Christmas present.
and also equally delighted that'll be Alexandra Park Ward - however, this still will need to be signed off by Parliament.
Nick please can you post a link to the whole document. I'd like to read about the wider Haringey decisions. Thanks again for all your help with this.
Full report for Haringey
Hi All,
See above regarding full report.
best wishes

Many thanks to you, Nick, for suggesting that the Commission might consider having two-councillor wards rather than three. This proposal would never have got off the ground without that consideration.
Yes indeed.
I see some other wards are also recommended to have 2-councillors rather than 3 - Bounds Green residents won't be pleased to be divided down the New River, cutting Myddleton Road in two. Not what we suggested.
And another 3 in Harringay area - don't know about those.
