The submission of this planning application marks an important landmark in the progress of Look! St Albans in its trailblazing work!
In the early autumn of 2014 Look! St Albans ‘Our Community Voice on Design’ was asked to host our first design charrette by St Albans District Council, acting as trustees and owners of the Museum of St Albans Hatfield Road.
A massive commitment was given by the forty-seven people who chose to attend one or more session of the externally independently facilitated event, contributing in total 329 hours’ of work. Many of those who took part have expressed their pride in helping to shape the future of this small, but significant site within the heart of the central conservation area.
Look! St Albans, as an organisation, does not have a collective view on any planning application, as the collective views have been expressed through the outcome of the design charrette.
We do however encourage those who took part in the design charrette and others, who have an interest in the site to make their representations pertaining to the planning application to the planning department by 17th February 2016.
