Covid19 Impact Assessment

The coronavirus pandemic continues to impact daily life across the county.

In response, Hertfordshire’s Community Reassurance Cell, on behalf of the Local Resilience Forum, has launched a new survey to better understand the needs, challenges and aspirations of all Hertfordshire communities.

The online survey asks respondents a series of questions to collect views about the impact of coronavirus on their lives, what support is needed and how that has changed since the start of the pandemic. The survey results will be used to shape the county’s ongoing recovery plans, ensuring support is targeted where it is needed most.

Please do share your views and experiences by taking part in this short survey. Individuals aged 16 years and above living in Hertfordshire, as well as representatives of community groups or other local organisations based in Hertfordshire are invited to take part. It should take around 10 minutes to complete.

Your assistance in further promoting this survey through your networks would also be appreciated.

Please see the link to the survey here: www.opinionresearch.co.uk/Herts_Covid19_CIA_2021_22

This survey is open until Friday, 21 January 2022.

Getting the right result (APC’s response to the HBC Draft Local Plan)

Aldenham Parish Council has published its response to the HBC Draft Local Plan highlighting the following areas of concern :

  1. The significant loss of Green Belt and why this needs to happen.
  2. The appropriateness of current government targets for housing and the basis of the calculation.
  3. The impact on the highway network across the borough from all the proposed land allocations once developed, and the inevitable increased congestion, travel times and pollution.
  4. The impact on existing infrastructure, and the provision of new infrastructure to accommodate the new developments and households. This includes schools, medical facilities, public transport, fire and police stations and other key facilities.
  5. Site identification process.
