👏 Fantastic to see that St Albans district council’s CCTV has been used by our police again to bring criminals to justice and make our streets safer.

We Liberal Democrats continue to invest in community CCTV - despite the calls by local Conservatives to scrap it.

The Lib Dem-controlled St Albans District Council has passed a budget that invests in community facilities and protects services for people across St Albans, Harpenden and our villages.

Here's what it means:

🏠 More social housing — including improvements in Harpenden and Wheathampstead, and 70+ new social homes at Telford Court by 2030

🏊 Upgraded sports and leisure facilities at the Alban Arena and Westminster Lodge

🏗️ A brand-new community centre in New Greens

📹 Continued investment in CCTV to tackle shoplifting and keep our streets safe

🌿 £1.5 million for River Ver restoration and solar panels on council buildings
including Cotlandswick Leisure Centre in London Colney

Meanwhile, the Conservatives' alternative was rejected by the council's own finance team as unrealistic.

This is what competent, community-focused local government looks like: refusing to play fast and loose with fantasy finances and committed to delivering for residents.

Residents are urged to give their views on proposals to change some parish and town council arrangements in St Albans District.

Among the measures being put forward is the creation of a new parish council in the unparished area of St Albans which has a population of around 28,000. A separate parish council for the Highfield area is also being considered.

Another proposal is the abolition of Harpenden Rural Parish Council with its area becoming part of Harpenden Town Council.
