Objection to CGB1:
- the Royston Hospital site should be removed from the designation Rural Areas Beyond Green Belt
- site considered suitable for redevelopment in the longer term
- NHS requires flexibility in its estate - development of sites and properties for best value is an important component in funding new or improved facilities for public services within an area.
- the SHLAA 2014 update recognises that the site is suitable for delivering residential development if medical use of the site ceased.
- requests amendment of the Policies Map to remove this site from the CGB1 designation
