Town Centre and Retail Monitoring
Monitoring Report 2006-2007
This is the first Annual Monitoring Report (AMR) which North Hertfordshire District Council has produced on Town Centre and Retail uses. The basis of much of the information contained in the report is a survey of town centre units in the four main centres: Hitchin, Letchworth Garden City, Baldock and Royston. Surveys of all units in the four main town centres have taken place in 2004, 2005, 2006 & 2007. The data recorded for each unit in the town centres includes: company name, address, floorspace, use class and primary activity, amongst other things.
The report contains a section on each of the four towns, analysing matters such as the type of uses in the centre, the type of occupiers, vacancies and unit sizes. There is also a section looking at the types of A1 retail uses, including convenience (food), comparison (non-food) and services.
The other part of the report deals with outstanding capacity and completions of Use Class A (retail), & Use Class D (assembly & leisure/non-residential institutions) floorspace during the monitoring year.
