A big extension to Mabo, catering for the ever popular staycations
Plans for more than 200 extra caravans in Mablethorpe have been voted through, despite objections and a petition with more than 100 signatures.
Initial plans to close a public footpath to the east of the site were later taken out of the plans and instead a diverted route created.“We have got to support local tourism, particularly with the fact that more people are staying home and coming to tourism in the area rather than going abroad.”The latter said: “If this brings more people into the town centre at night time, it is desperately needed because it looks like a ghost town.”.
Almost 34 letters of objection were initially submitted, with a further 19 sent after the plans were amended. A 104 signature petition was also received by the council.Objections included the impact on the wider landscape, impact on neighbouring residential properties, how the public footpath was incorporated into the development, the suitability of the highway network and drainage implications.
