Decision details

RESOLVED

(1)              That the findings of the consultants’ reports be noted and the inclusion of the recommendations in the Marshall Regen socio-economic report and those in the Wolfstrome “Way-finding” report detailed in para 5.1 of the agenda report be supported and be subsumed into the Selsey Vision Action Plan.

(2)              That no further Chichester District Council resources be committed to progressing the Selsey Haven Project proposals outlined in the consultants’ reports due to the significant uncertainties around both economic viability and securing the necessary capital investment outlined in the Marshall Regen report.

(3)              That should the Selsey Haven Steering Group and Selsey Town Council wish to pursue an alternative project to assess options to support the fishing industry and related marine activity, then consideration be given by the Cabinet to committing resources to preliminary work, including investigating funding sources, subject to costs being matched by Selsey Town Council.
