1. Apologies - Jan Arkcoll, Shirley Adams
2. Approval of October Executive Committee Minutes
TH requested that 5:3 be amended to read “ whilst HIRA could do very little on the matter with regards to the mobile phone safety for the residents of Nicholas Court, HIRA could still add support in other areas if appropriate”.
Minutes were approved.
3. Matters arising from October Minutes
The Bridge - The councillors meeting on the subject of the bridge was noted with the intention of passing on the views of HIRA. This was left unresolved.
4. Planning Issues
a. Taxi Office, West Town - No action was needed on the application for a taxi office in West Town as the idea had considerable support although the parking element requires attention.
b. Hayling Bay Hotel - Application for hotel site seemed more appropriate than previous ideas but it still involved one- bedroom units.
c. Hayling Motors - HIRA felt that the application at the Hayling Motors site would be better with some 2 - bedroom units. ACTION - CW to feedback HIRA comments
d. 42 Church Road - development behind No 42 is acceptable in that it has little effect on the locality.
e. Rook Hollow Hotel - Conversion from hotel back to residential use received support from HIRA executive committee.
