Shepway are now wasting money on a PR company. They have set up their own website and are holding an exhibition on Friday at Seabrook Church Hall 11 – 7pm. Go along and make your feelings heard.

Last night Hythe Town Council voted to pull the plug on the Neighbourhood Plan despite the fact that the item wasn’t even on the agenda. They didn’t seem to understand that Neighbourhood Plans are the public’s chance to have a say in the future of their towns. Or maybe they did and that was the problem.

Great article in today’s Herald by Jim Martin but I don’t think much of Roger Joyce’s idea of building on the Imperial Golf Course and moving the golf course eastwards to meet the play area at Seabrook. Susan Wood wrote a letter defending the golf course but thinks it would be ok to build the pool and a restauarant on ” the old rubbish tip.” It might have a been a landfill site many years ago but now it’s a green open space and lets hope it stays that way.

The Imperial Golf course has been submitted as a potential development site as part of the Local Plan process

Princes Parade will finally be discussed at the cabinet meeting on 28 May 2014 5pm. The public are allowed to attend the meeting but not speak. Shepway have refused to release the relevant reports until 21 May. They will be available on the Shepway website as part of the agenda for the cabinet meeting.

Shepway have called for ideas for sites for development and for green and open space. To submit Prince’s Parade to remain as an open space, please follow the instructions found here.

Looks like our meeting last week has got Shepway worried:

They say the existing site is too small but why haven’t they asked the people of Hythe if they actually want such a big new pool?
