So its a chance to find out what was decided at the Feb'08 planning meeting.<BR/><BR/>I wonder if TDC have served that section 48 repairs notice on "the owner of Granville Marina" [sic] yet?

I also know that my concerns about the base line only being half a meter above the highest tide line are being taken more seriously than they were. I haven’t heard anything about emergency escapes onto the cliff top that the environment agency suggested would be necessary last year.<BR/><BR/>If you look at the plans for the Turner contemporary, to be built on a similar site, you will see all of the things I have mentioned about Pleasurama have been thoroughly examined and satisfactorily resolved.<BR/><BR/>Despite having been promised plans for a year by various planning officers, that show the revisions that I have talked about I have never received them, nor have they appeared on the UK planning website.<BR/><BR/>I know there are limitations as to what you can say being on the planning committee, but there does seem to be a considerable lack of public involvement and lack of information about what is after all a much bigger project than the Turner Contemporary.Michael Childhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09499435016469020417noreply@blogger.com
