The purpose of the processing
1. To facilitate participation by residents (including the estate’s tenants and leaseholders, and local residents) in consultation about the redevelopment of the Agar Grove estate. At different stages of the scheme residents are asked to choose between options, or give opinions, including on development proposals, scheme design, naming of new streets and blocks, and public art proposals. Names and addresses are collected to identify who responds to consultations and, where appropriate, to ensure only one response is counted from any one household. Contact phone numbers and email addresses are collected to facilitate contact with residents about consultations and the redevelopment scheme generally.
2. To facilitate the rehousing of the estate’s tenants into new homes on the estate or elsewhere in the borough.
