Hope you’ve seen the front page of the Hythe Herald today?So why hasn’t there been a proper public consultation about the site and size of the proposed new pool? Write to your Shepway councillor and ask them!
An Alternative Location for the New Hythe Pool
Shepway claim that it is not feasible to put a new pool on the existing site although this is the preferred option for many local people .Save Princes Parade has commissioned some plans to show how it might in fact be possible to use the existing site for the proposed new leisure centre.
If you would like to view these plans and discuss them with us, please come along to
Seabrook Church Hall on
Wednesday 4 December at 7pm.

Please sign this petition. There is a huge conflict between the assumption in favour of sustainable development in the NPPF ( sustainable here doesn’t just refer to the environment ) and localism. Guess which one usually wins!
