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get better service from the report for February 3rd - even better, one would like the Brighton O application to be withdrawn and a new one raised with an alternative siting for it east of the Palace Pier where it could provide a link to Volks Railway and on to the Marina.
