  • Lanchester Building, Hempstead Road
    PART A Report of : HEAD OF REGENERATION AND DEVELOPMENT Date of Committee: 30 th January 2014 Site address: Lanchester Building, Hempstead Road Reference number: 13/01134 /FUL Description of development: Conversion of building for use as a primary school with nursery, including two 3 storey rear extensions, alterations to elevations and new entrance canopy. Formation of external play areas, including new surfacing, seating, fencing and gates, and alterations to landscaping. Erection of fencing around the boundaries of the site. Alterations to vehicular access to West Herts College and the provision of 7 car parking spaces, coach lay-by, cycle shelter and new footpaths. Applicant: West Herts Community Free School Trust th Date received: 6 November 2013 st 8 week date (minor): 1 January 2014 Ward: PARK SUMMARY Full planning permission is sought for the conversion of the existing Lanchester Building at West Herts College into a two form entry primary school with nursery comprising the associated extensions and alterations to the building and external ground works to facilitate this use. The building itself is locally listed and the whole site is located within the Civic Core Conservation Area. The adjacent Little Cassiobury is a Grade II* listed building. The proposed use of the Lanchester Building as a primary school will meet an identified and immediate need for primary school places within the central area of Watford. The use of the building as a school does not require planning permission; however, the proposed external works to the open space in front of the Lanchester Building are considered to have a moderate negative impact on the character and appearance of the Civic Core Conservation Area and the setting of the locally listed Lanchester Building.

  • NHS Herts Valleys Clinical Commissioning Group Board Meeting Date of Meeting: 10 May 2018
    NHS Herts Valleys Clinical Commissioning Group Board Meeting Date of Meeting: 10 May 2018 Title Urgent treatment and GP services at Hemel Hempstead Hospital Agenda item 6 Purpose* (tick) Decision ☒ Approval ☐ Discussion ☐ Assurance ☐ Information only ☐ Author and job title Responsible director and job title Director signature David Evans, David Evans Approved by Director of Commissioning Director of Commissioning David Evans and Juliet Rodgers Juliet Rodgers, Associate Director of Communications and Engagement Short summary of paper This paper asks the board to consider options for two services located at Hemel Hempstead Hospital: 1. Future operating hours for the urgent treatment centre which has been operating on interim hours since December 2016 due to staffing shortages overnight; 2. Future contract for the registered patient list at West Hertfordshire Medical Centre once the current fixed term contract ends in October. The paper outlines the feedback from a public consultation on both of the above services, together with information on additional factors such as demand and resourcing issues that have been taken into account in developing recommendations. The thorough process of consultation has helped mitigate the engagement risk. Risk remains of lack of support from some stakeholders. Patient safety and workforce risks are also factors in the discussion on proposals; not opening the UTC overnight would help mitigate risks around a scarce GP workforce and avoiding an inconsistent and unstable urgent care facility. Recommendation(s) The board is being asked to review the outcomes of the consultation together with evidence and information relating to other factors and to consider the following recommendations: 1. To retain the current hours of the urgent treatment centre, reflecting difficulties with staffing the service overnight, and to explore the feasibility of extending the service to midnight, subject to a workforce review that will come to board later in 2018.

In response, I expressed the view that HCC Property would look to find hard solutions (such as car parking opportunities) but the delivery of operational solutions thereafter would be a matter for WHCFST to devise and implement and ultimately advise upon. and would like to set up a meeting to go through the various P&S proposals and options and the earliest both are available is w/c 05 August 2013. (I have advised that WHC may want some progress on the STP prior to then.) Could you please liaise directly with to set up this requested site visit? I expect that you may also need to liaise with at WHC to arrange access onto the Lanchester/WHC site. Many thanks From: [] Sent: 25 June 2013 09:42 To: Cc: Subject: RE: Watford: Lanchester Building - School Travel Plan , has asked me to brief you about research and contacts I've made / had regarding off site parking and park and stride opportunities in the vicinity of the Lanchester Building / West Herts College site for the proposed free school.

    Landlords Enjoy your parks Come on you ‘orns Recycle Right Let your property this summer Watford FC promoted What to recycle through the council AboutWatford NEWS AND INFORMATION FROM WATFORD BOROUGH COUNCIL BIG SUMMER SOUNDS AboutWatford Summer is here at last! Now that the weather’s getting better it’s time for more of us to get outdoors and enjoy what Watford has to offer. Residents told me that they wanted to reclaim our town centre as a family friendly space that everyone could use. That’s why we introduced Watford Big Events last year. They were such a success that we’re running them again this year – and we’re going to make them bigger and better! You can read about all the exciting events planned for the Big Festival and more from page 11. There really is something for everyone. At this time of year our parks come into their own (pages 9-10). In October Cassiobury Park was voted Britain’s fourth favourite park – and with 190 acres, sports facilities and lovely walks, it’s not hard to see why. The playground and the paddling pools mean that there’s plenty for younger Dorothy Thornhill children to do too. Don’t forget Cheslyn House and Gardens – Watford’s hidden gem. Mayor of Watford If you’re feeling green-fingered, you can sign up for an allotment from Watford Borough Council www.watford.gov.uk/ (page 4). For many sites there isn’t a waiting list. I’m really proud of the investment we have made electedmayor meaning that there has never been a better time to sign up.
