Licencing applications for a school and a pizza restaurant and claims on the estates of the deceased are among the public notices that could affect residents in Watford and surrounding areas.

The public notice portal is used to access all of the upcoming and recent information about various restrictions and notices.

Here are five notices we have rounded up which could affect residents in Watford and surrounding towns and villages.

The proposal is to add the sale of alcohol at public events from 12 noon to 10.45pm; extend the area covered by the licence to include the school playing fields; add the showing of films from 12 noon to 10.45pm; extend the times the licence authorises the carrying out of licensable activities from 12 noon to 10.45pm (previously 2pm to 10.45pm) to cover events like plays, live and recorded music or anything similar.

Chester Road and Durban Road East – parking restrictions

Changes are planned to the controlled parking zone affecting Chester Road and Durban Road East.

The proposal involves (a) removing four metres of no waiting at any time restrictions outside No. 19 Chester Road and replace with permit holders only, as the private access is no longer in use and (b) removing a single permit holder only space at the southern end of Durban Road East, junction with Victoria Passage and replace this with no waiting at any time for the installation of a CCTV camera in the interests of public safety.
