Bourne End Herts News

As you may have seen from the local press, plans have been submitted for the redevelopment of the site. In essence, this is along the lines of the commercial development proposals made in 2008. Modifications have been made to meet the council's objections made at the time. Rather than going into any detail here, it would be helpful if as many people as possible could examine the proposals and feed comments to committee members of the Village Association. Alternatively you might like to make comments here on the blog. The plans can be viewed on line via the planning portal.  The reference is: 4/02245/12/VOT The following link should get you there: http://www.dacorum.gov.uk/planonline/AcolNetCGI.gov?ACTION=UNWRAP&RIPNAME=Root.PgeResultDetail&TheSystemkey=206660

We urge you to make your feelings known on the matter as we feel if the plans are accepted the development will have a detrimental impact on our environment. The letter you will have received with your Bourne Ender is also copied below, together with some photographs indicating the position of the planned sheds.

You may have already responded to a similar planning application which was made in October. (See earlier blog entry.)  This is a new application and it requires a new and separate response related to this specific application number.  As the application is virtually identical, and the grounds for your objection may remain unchanged it is quite in order for you to repeat the same letter in terms of substance, simply altering the application number.    Scroll down to see illustrations of where the sheds are planned to be sited.
