    Would be interesting to see who actually decides who gets these awards.

    They mean nothing of course to the public, they are sycophantic, meaningless `kite` marks, which can be measured by the level of hat doffing of movers and shakers they slap the backs of, using public money to grease the slippery pole they all dance around.

    Use your public money to provided effordable housing, not for glorified edifices and private development sites in our borough. These are the things that have to be measured. and probably will be, at some point.
