ItemBusiness
274The Committee received a report of the Director of Technical & Environmental Services regarding an application to revise the conditions attached to the current site licence for the East Beach Caravan site so as to enable ‘Park Homes', which would be permitted to be permanently occupied, to be installed within the area of the site south of the MoD railway line (commonly known as the ‘south site'). Mr Peecock, the applicant, Mr Hughes of Omar Homes and Mr Hallaway, an observer, were in attendance at the meeting. Mrs Ayling, Mr Meads and Mr Ray spoke as objectors to the application. There were 24 other objectors also in attendance.

The Committee was informed that whilst application included the variation of condition 2(c), this condition related solely to the Northern site and was therefore not relevant to this application.
275In accordance with Minute No. 9(3) of the meeting of the Traffic & Parking Working Party held on 18 June 2003, the Committee considered a report by the Director of Technical & Environmental Services that sought Members' approval of the relocation of the existing Hackney Carriage Stand in Hamlet Court Road. The Committee was informed that no objections had been received to the proposals of the Working Party and that the Southend Taxi Drivers' Association had fully supported the scheme. A plan of the proposed scheme was attached to the report. Mr Sutton of Southend Taxi Drivers' Association was in attendance at the meeting.

Mr Sutton of the Southend Taxi Drivers' Association was in attendance at the meeting.
