Hoylake Golf Resort public meeting Hoylake Community Centre 9th December 2017 Part 3 of 3

Hoylake Village Life outlined their ideas for a Martin Mere style wetlands reserve.

A spokesperson for the campaign group against the Hoylake Golf Resort project outlined their concerns about the plans.

Wirral Council’s Cabinet will be considering a decision about the Hoylake Golf Resort at a meeting which will mainly be held in public on 18th December 2017. Part of the recommendation to Cabinet is a loan of up to £26 million to the developer from Wirral Council if planning permission is granted.

Most of the people present for the meeting were dismissive of the money spent so far on the Hoylake Golf Resort project by Wirral Council. A local councillor Cllr Gerry Ellis described it as “Phil’s folly”.

Cllr Phil Davies was interrupted a number of times by heckling as emotions ran high on the subject and his words to the Wirral Globe on the subject of development of the greenbelt were repeated back to him.

The public meeting had been arranged by the area’s MP Margaret Greenwood who asked at the end of the meeting if the Cabinet would consider the alternative proposal of a wetlands reserve.
