According to this weeks accy observer page 23 .. typed by me ...

A presentation on an application to transform a dilapidated baxenden nursing home will be heard at the next meeting of baxenden area management committee. Controversial developers wanting to transform Hilltop Nursing Home on manchester road will be attending the meeting to answer residents questions about their recent application submitted to hyndburns planning committee.

The presentation will include details of how the developers Icare, have scaled down and rejigged their first application after listening to the concerns of residents at a similar meeting last year.

The developers are expected to tell residents they have transformed the way the site will look and be run as well as how they have reduced the number of apartments from more than 100 over 6 storeys, to only 64.

Initially the development was going to remain privatised with each apartment being sold to private owners. The developers now hope the complex will be rented out by elderly residents who need support.

The meeting will be held on Thursday Feb 4th at Baxenden St Johns Primary School off Manchester Road.

No time is given in the paper ..
