Just happened upon your site whilst googling......no mention of Brighton O planning application.....hmmmmmm!

Currently expected at Feb. 3 planning committee.  Report online from Wednesdaym 27th January and expected to carry the same recommendation to refuse as was on the Report meant to go to Committee on 13th January. 

The Brighton Sailing Club, The Brighton Explorers (kayaks)and adjacent arches businesses would be destroyed by the Brighton O which would "oversail" their frontages and force removal of boats from the beach. 

Regrettably, only the interests of the proposed i360 were considered a reason for refusal, along with hours of operation in the Report for 13th January 2010.  Hopefully arches leaseholders get better service from the report for February 3rd - even better, one would like the Brighton O application to be withdrawn and a new one raised with an alternative siting for it east of the Palace Pier where it could provide a link to Volks Railway and on to the Marina.

We have a list of suspects currently wanted by Police, if you spot or know any of the people listed in this article http://br-nag.org.uk/component/k2/item/283-police-wanted-jan-10

It seems that there is a new influx of A Boards advertising cheap alcohol

We understood this was not allowed, especially in the Regency area.

what are your comments!?

Bradshaws Bar have very kindly agreed to host a meeting for residents on Monday 18th at 7pm. I think that the following things might usefully be considerd at the meeting:
 

Town & Country Planning (Control of advertisements) ( England ) Regulations 2007.

During the summer you [EBRA] wrote to the office of the Secretary of State for Communities and Local Government giving your support to the making of a direction to bring under planning control the display of estate agents’ sale and letting boards in certain conservation areas in the centre of the city.

The Council has been informed that a hearing is to be conducted into the making of this direction, having received an objection to the proposal from the Brighton and Hove Estate Agents’ Association.

The hearing will be held at the Town Hall, Norton Road , Hove on Wednesday 9th March at 10.00.

Should you wish to make further written representation, this should be made to Mr C Kearney at Communities and Local Government, Floor 1/A1, Eland House, Bressenden Place , London SW1E 5DU , no later than 8th February. 

Members of the public may attend the hearing and, at the discretion of the Planning Inspector, express their views. If you are disabled or anyone you know who wants to attend the hearing is disabled, do contact me to ensure that proper arrangements have been made with regard parking space, access, or seating arrangements etc. 

Full details of the council’s representation in support of the proposal together with maps defining the areas which are recommended for inclusion in the direction are available for inspection during normal office hours at the “City Direct” Information and Advice Centres in the Town Hall, Norton Road , Hove and at Bartholomew House, Bartholomew Square , Brighton .

Yours sincerely
