“The apartments would not be limited to hospital worker accommodation'
Plans for flats reserved for NHS key workers have been removed from the first phase of a huge new homes proposal near Royal Blackburn Hospital.
The original proposal included priority affordable flats for hospital workers but Blackburn with Darwen Council planning committee heard on Wednesday night that this element of the development had now been dropped. Instead there will be 97 affordable homes including 50 flats managed by registered social housing provider Great Places.
The new approved scheme replaced one of the original proposed blocks of flats with eight houses bringing down the total number of properties on the first phase of the development from 210 to 205. But a supplementary report to Wednesday night’s committee meeting revealed: “Reference to hospital worker apartments is erroneous.
After the meeting Conservative development spokesman Cllr Paul Marrow said: “I am disappointed that the flats reserved for NHS key workers have been dropped from this phase of the development. I shall be watching carefully the progress of the remaining outline planning permission and seeking to ensure the remaining 100 flats for NHS staff are delivered.”
