WRITTEN QUESTION TO THE MINISTER FOR PLANNING AND ENVIRONMENT BY DEPUTY T.M. PITMAN OF ST. HELIER
ANSWER TO BE TABLED ON TUESDAY 11th MAY 2010
Question
"Will the Minister confirm whether he intends to allow work to begin on the Talman area of the Town Park, but to oppose the development of a park on the rest of the designated area, if it is to be without buildings, and, if so, does he not consider that this would be contrary to the public's expectations for the site?"
Answer
At the present time, the Transport and Technical Services Department have yet to submit a planning application for the remediation of the site but I understand that an application will be submitted for those works in the very near future. I am unable to allow any work to commence until an application has been approved but I am fully supportive of any necessary steps to decontaminate the site for whatever purpose. Any such application will be dealt with as quickly as possible in the context of the debate on P42 – scheduled for the current sitting of the States - and the North of Town Masterplan but I certainly anticipate remediation works to commence this year.
