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