Coulsdon Town
Shadow Cabinet Deputy for Clean Green Croydon

Ian Parker has lived and worked in the Coulsdon/Purley area for over 30 years • Married with two children both educated at local state schools • Former Chair of Governors at Woodcote High School • Former Coulsdon Councillor (2010-2014) and Deputy Cabinet Member for Economic Development and Regeneration • Former member of Coulsdon Forum • Local volunteer for the Royal British Legion for over 20 years

Having served as a Coulsdon West Councillor for four years (2010-2014) I have a clear picture of the role of a local Councillor. Key is the ability to listen to and respond without promising that every wish can be met. As an ambassador for Coulsdon I would seek to promote the area to ensure the town centre remains a vibrant place to shop and work. The ever-growing Cane Hill development provides challenges for local public services. Elected representatives need to ensure the services expand in line with the growing population. Any developments should preserve the green belt that should be cherished for ours and future generations. As a Conservative Councillor, I seek to ensure we get value for money from our local taxes. To do that, we need a Conservative administration in the Town Hall. Coulsdon has for too long been neglected by a Labour Croydon Council.

Unnecessary Delays

Friday, 15 January, 2021

I regularly drive through the pedestrian crossing outside Coulsdon South station.  On a number of occasions the crossing's lights have turned red without any evidence of pedestrians crossing.  If this happens a few times, maybe I've missed a pedestrian but when it happens repeatedly maybe there's

Cllr. Ian Parker: we must show we understand the pain of Council staff

Madam Mayor

I'm not sure how many councillors there are across the United Kingdom.

And I haven't totted up how many councillors there are in London.

I do know of course there are 70 councillors in Croydon and I do know there are 3 councillors in my ward of Coulsdon Town.

Well Done Coulsdon Town Police

Monday, 30 November, 2020

Well done to Coulsdon Town's eagle eyed PCSO who, yesterday, spotted a vehicle parked unusually in the area.  A male was arrested for possession of heroine and theft.  His car was also seized as it was being driven without insurance.

East Coulsdon Residents' Association (ECRA) had asked for a replacement seat at the junction of Smitham Downs Road and The Drive as the previous seat had been damaged in a road accident.  Funding was sought from Councillors' Community Ward Budgets.  The new seat now takes pride of place and we ho

Coulsdon Town's Community Ward Budgets

Friday, 13 November, 2020

We wait to see the full impact Labour's bankrupting of Croydon will have on Coulsdon's services. Shame has been brought to Coulsdon and Croydon generally. Children's services, Westfield, massive financial mismanagement, huge payoffs, reckless investments and more.
