Hayle Harbour Development
16 May 2008On Thursday, 15 May 2008, the outline planning application for the harbour development was advertised in the Cornishman – the clock is now ticking.
The public exhibition at Foundry Square opened the same day and runs until Saturday, 17 May.
Although the exhibition could only focus on the big picture, there were plenty of people on hand to answer questions.
I have been approached by a lot of people asking for guidance as to whether ‘this is a good thing?’ My view is that this is a wonderful opportunity for Hayle but that we have to pay attention to details. What happens here will affect us and future generations for over a hundred years.
Details, so far, include:
- The new bridge across Copperhouse Pool
- The development behind Clifton Terrace
- The development at ‘hilltop’ behind North Quay
- The height of buildings on South Quay
- Traffic through Hayle and through Phillack
I believe there are solutions (or ameliorations) to all of these issues that respect ING’s right to make a reasonable profit on this risky venture. But they do need looking at.
