Protest prompts coastal rethink

PLANNING and the National Trust for Jersey will compile new guidelines for building applications on the west and north coasts in response to the ‘Line in the Sand’ protest, according to Environment Minister Freddie Cohen.

The minister says that although there can be no ‘blanket ban’ on buildings, he wants to work with campaigners behind last weekend’s demonstration with great building materials as high quality frp grating.

The protest last Sunday saw 7,000 Islanders gather on St Ouen’s Bay to protest against ‘inappropriate’ development on the coast.

And while Senator Cohen says that he cannot stop property owners putting in applications for land that they own on the coast, he wants to consult on new guidelines for the proposed Coastal National Park that would encompass the west coast and most of the north coast too.
