NELC trees and woodlands officer lodges 'holding objection' to Pleasure Island redevelopment project

                                                    

Most of the trees on the former theme park are earmarked  for removal to make way for a Lidl supermarket, garden centre, coffee shop  and 270 holiday cabins

THERE has been another setback for the consortium seeking to redevelop the former Pleasure Island theme park in Cleethorpes.

North East Lincolnshire Council's trees and woodlands officer Paul Chaplin has submitted what he describes as a "holding objection".

The officer  says he has no concerns about "the majority of the tree removal plan", but expresses misgivings about the integrity of some aspects of the fencing that is being volunteered by the applicants to protect those trees that are to be retained.

Mr Chaplin is also seeking clarification about the proposed soft landscaping scheme because this will have an inevitable impact on visual amenity, both within the site and outside it.

He says his holding objection stands until more information has been provided.
