TCR19 Hatfield Acceptable Uses Outside of the Primary Retail Core (Lemsford Road)

Within Hatfield town centre, on the western side of Lemsford Road, outside of the primary retail core, as defined on Inset Map 1, the Council will support proposals to enhance existing and provide new leisure, cultural and community facilities (for uses within Classes D1 and D2), which will assist the regeneration of the town centre and not harm the amenities of the occupiers of nearby residential areas. Consideration will also be given to hotel, office and residential uses as part of any development scheme where these will help to provide leisure, cultural or community facilities.

Any proposals for the redevelopment of the Forum site in this area must maintain and contribute to the strategic link between the town centre and The Galleria and Hatfield Aerodrome site.
