Planning Committee – 25 th February 2009 4.1<br />
was granted. Unfortunately due to unforeseen circumstances the unit has not<br />
been made available for lease to the PCT.<br />
11.3.5 As the funding relating to the establishment of the new practice is<br />
closely related to the delivery of services from 1st April 2009 it was essential<br />
that another solution was identified in the short term. The application to<br />
site the modular buildings on the hard standing will allow time for a<br />
permanent solution to be identified. We are working closely with the<br />
managing agents for the shopping centre and have established relations with<br />
the Fens Residents group and local councillors as well as the Local Authority<br />
Business Development Team and are hoping to identify a permanent solution<br />
within the area of the Shopping Centre.<br />
11.3.6 At this stage we are asking for permission for up to 2 years to give<br />
us an achievable timescale in which to identify and act on that solution.<br />
