Burton Bradstock Parish Council Meeting     -           Wednesday 6th April 2005

 

Freshwater Beach Holiday Park

Burton Bradstock Parish Council have received a couple of letters complaining at the general appearance of the earth moving works taking place on the northern edge of the site.  The Owner of Freshwater (Mr Rod Condliffe) attended the meeting to inform us that these are ongoing site improvement works for his customers.  He predicts with the improvement in weather conditions continuing he would hope to complete the works in the next couple of months.  Freshwater is a valued holiday destination for thousands of tourists, a large local employer, and continues to be important to the income to many local businesses.  West Dorset is committed to promoting tourism, and it was generally felt the Parish Council support Freshwater in the ongoing improvements they are making.

 

Planning

                                    The planning committee had previously looked at a similar, rejected proposal for this site, and still feel that any alteration of this nature would be over-development of the site and be detrimental to neighbouring properties.

                                    No objections.
