BATTLEGROUNDS
We originally formed, to fight the ridiculous multi-applications on Carbis Bay Holiday Park in Carbis Bay, St Ives by Andrew McGivern and Welshman Properties. Since that time there has been an overwhelming number of inappropriate developments all over Cornwall and beyond. Everyday there seems to be more and more of these totally inappropriate planning applications in our local communities and this is a platform to publish those of concern to you and your community.
Email us the details of any such application and those in your local community fighting back. To view the current applications of concern and how you can help fight this insidious tide of inappropriate developments click here.
CARBIS BAY HOTEL,
CARBIS BAY
Stephen Baker of Carbis Bay Hotel submitted a retrospective planning application, number: PA21/02527 for the retention and completion of 3 single storey structures to provide 9 meeting rooms, and access pathway. This was the site of the G7 summit and under Baker's orders workmen have already destroyed acres of trees and hedges. Removing any evidence when the Police investigated on our requests. After both a local and then national outcry, he was forced to submit a retrospective planning application. He ignored pleas to STOP from the ineffectual Cornwall Council, the flapping local Conservative MP Derek Thomas and there was no sign of our opportunist local Cornwall councillor, Linda Taylor
Status: Retrospective application refused. Baker appealed to the Planning Inspectorate but later, on advice removed this application to appeal. Cornwall Council served an order on Baker to remove the buildings and re-instate the natural environment, which he still has not completed!
CARBIS BAY HOLIDAY PARK, LAITY LANE
Welshman Properties have submitted another outline planning application number PA20/11376 with all matters reserved, to erect up to 41 dwellings and associated works on land at Site C, which is the land east of Playzone, on Laity Lane in Carbis Bay, St Ives, Cornwall,
Status: This application has been misguidedly supported by St Ives Town Council, which is of no consequence to our planned action but is disappointing. They have flipped from a unanimous supporter of our concerns and the local community in the past, to this.
We need the community to object to this application immediately, by clicking on the button below. Whilst we deal with the other relevant issues, that have been raised by this application with the relevant authorities.
AWAITING DECISION!
