Planning Applications
These have come forward thick and fast with proposals to develop on sites in Baring Road (six dwellings), Place Road (14 dwellings) and Lower Church Road, where proposals for seven dwellings were refused. A further proposal causing concern is an intention to develop a dwelling in Woodvale Drive.

Cowes/Gurnard Seafront
Proposals on whether to charge for parking are being considered by the IW Council’s Cabinet. Thank you to the 449 residents who objected and the 3,000 residents for signing the petition against these ill-conceived charges. In the meantime, I remain hopeful our Councillors listened!
E-Scooters
Last month Beryl in partnership with the IW Council agreed locations for e-scooters in Cowes. Locally, I was unaware of locations were identified. Please note, I do not support this roll-out until assurance can be provided that the e-scooters will be used safely, lawfully and will be rigorously enforced.
School Parking
A request was made to Parking Enforcement to monitor vehicles parked outside all primary schools following calls by Councillors, residents and school leaders over safety.
Beach Debris
Steps are underway to clear debris on the foreshore between Hamstead Ledge and Gurnard Sailing Club. Please let me know if you wish to volunteer to support this initiative.
