St Albans City and District Council wants to hear your views on the long-term future development of St Albans Civic Centre area, currently home to the Council’s offices, the Alban Arena, the Principal Health Centre and police station.

This work follows on from the City Vision work undertaken by the Council which identified city centre development sites and opportunities for change. This new step in that process provides more detail on possible new uses and layout for this important and poorly performing site. The community now has an opportunity to engage further in shaping change in the city centre by providing comments on a planning brief.

The planning brief and supporting documents on this three hectare site are available to view on the Council’s website at http://www.stalbans.gov.uk/district-vision/.

The brief provides detailed advice and guidance on the type and scale of development which the Council, as the Local Planning Authority, would consider appropriate for the site which extends from St Peter’s Street to Bricket Road and from Charter Close to Victoria Street.
