Hold i360 Ltd to Account
We note that the previous Council Administration approved this Scheme with the minimum of public consultation and that the Council lent £36.2Million to i360 Ltd.
We urge that Company to minimise any environmental damage as a result of the scheme, ensure public access to the area around the West Pier and ensure that we get the full return with additional interest from the Council stake in this Scheme. In particular we ask:-
1. The Council to use its powers, including bye-laws, to ensure
that the area is protected, that minimal disruption is caused and
that the interests of residents and small businesses are
protected.
2. The Council to ensure that the current Planning Conditions are
enforced and that these are strengthened where necessary.
3. The Council to ensure that there is no encroachment by the i360
LTD onto the beach and other areas of the seafront beyond the
strict boundaries already agreed.
4. The Council to ensure that all relevant Legislation including
Health and Safety Laws are adhered to.
5. The Council to apply all relevant financial penalties, Community
benefits, Business Rates and other sources of income to ensure that
any potential losses now or in the future are minimised.
