Kenilworth planning roundup: Hospital works, hotel's development and health clinic
Here are the biggest local planning stories from the past week.
Health Clinic's Success
A private clinic is looking to expand after soaring demand for its services.
Heath Lodge Clinic has purchased a neighbouring house and submitted an application for it to be turned into offices.
The clinic, which offers various scans including X-Rays, MRI and Ultrasound, has applied for the Warwick Road site in Knowle to be converted from a five bedroom property, split between two bedrooms on the ground floor and three on the first floor, into office space.
The clinic, which opened in December 2009, has applied for it to be converted into space which would be the home for its business operations.

Hotel's Panels Hampered
Prior approval to install a series of solar panels at The Warwickshire Golf And Country Club has been refused by Warwick District Council (WDC).
The local authority said the applicant - The Club Company - had provided "insufficient information" to allow planners to make a full decision.
Prior approval applications are made to streamline the process of asking for permission for certain types of development, without the need to ask for full planning permission.
However, the Leek Wootton club may now have to go down the latter route after its 150kWp set up was refused.

Demolition Underway
Demolition works have begun at Warwick Hospital as work to create a brand new entrance and elective hub continue.
South Warwickshire University NHS Trust (SWFT) announced this week the first of the buildings have started to be knocked down to make way for the major new development.
Demolition work started on March 18, with photographs taken over the past few days showing the fast progress to date.
