The controversial restaurant that Hastings Borough Council (HBC) applied to itself to build was voted down 7 – 1, with 2 abstentions. Bernard McGinley reports on planning disarray, and the platform lift the planning committee finally deemed ‘unsuitable’.
The planning committee report on the controversial lift case in Harold Place surprised many by recommending ‘Grant Full Planning Permission,’ despite the application’s obvious breach of the Equality Act and the Building Regs. The meeting is on Wednesday 23 March, and comments can still be submitted till Friday afternoon (18th, at 3pm). Only after the decision will East Sussex Building Control take a look. Bernard McGinley tries to make sense of the new report.
A town centre site in Harold Place is the subject of a planning application to itself by Hastings Borough Council (HBC). The proposed restaurant is to be on the first floor, but wheelchairs and prams won’t easily get there. Bernard McGinley is unimpressed.
