	This is not about Residents against Demolition or anti-development movement to prevent progress, but a meaningful conversation about the impact of political decisions and the impact of privatising public land (change of ownership). How does a change affect the future of the city in relation to the Right to the city.

Could the community protect the ownership of public land? What are the options here?

	*''Protect the interest of people in low-income and allow small business to prosper from current changes. If the area is becoming wealthier, how could this influence certain people to do better; or how could small business and low-income residents take part and directly be involved and engaged? Could possible public assets be protected by setting up local trusts, co-ops etc to protect and manage the same on behalf of the local community? Is there enough existing skill and finance to pursue such demand? How to ensure that affordable housing is fair and applicable to local residents; how affordable really is? Incorporate joined banking, waste management and good delivery for small businesses; integrate schemes for positive recycling, sharing language and skill programmes, public art and events, as well as green energy programmes with community shares.''		*''Protect the interest of people on low-income and allow small business to prosper from current changes.

	*''Looking at the boundary if the Carpenters Estate, as a former industrial area, there are possible opportunities of development of brownfield land, but also the public spaces around the estate. The density of the former estate was 75 units per ha, and the proposed development for the site has increased density 220units per ha. Why do people decide to move here? This is a site that was selected and appointed for building the Olympic Facilities back in 2005, and since then Westfield Shopping Centre, one of the biggest shopping zones in London has been built, as well Stratford Internation,Eurostar London-Paris; and Stratford- Stanstead; and Stratford-City Airport, good international connectivity, attractive for city workers on high income. However, the Carpenters Estate had predominantly residents on low-income and the decantation started, for the purpose of displacing the current residents. Owners were offered basic deals, in shining leather folders, 10 times less the value of the land at the time. This is what the authorities had to offer the public, consultation in how they would be moved elsewhere; due to the regeneration plan and demand for more housing ~~(see sketch 4~~. My interest in the site comes from analysing boundaries, and ownership.Watching how those boundaries and ownership are shifting and changing due to the regeneration. The change is structure of local authorities, new local authorities in place, like the London Legacy Development Corporation (LLDC), change in ownership of community assets and what does it mean? change of management for the site and shifting of public funds; changes in local policies- neighbourhood forum. How much of these future changes are affecting the current community, are they empowering? do they at all benefit the current communities?
