A decision was taken by the cabinet member contracts and assets on 8 May 2018to dispose of land adjacent to Hereford railway station by way of a 125 year lease to Prime (UK) Developments Ltd to facilitate the development of a new healthcare centre.

The disposal was conditional upon, amongst other matters, the development being completed within three years of the disposal date. The purchaser, Prime (UK) Developments Ltd, has requested that this period is amended to five years from the disposal date in order to comply with the conditions of their insurance and funding agreement. All other conditions remain unchanged.
