The consultation on Princes Parade is here

The formal consultation with Shepway continues, but Shepway's web site is very difficult to negotiate through. For help and tips on how to respond to the consultation please use the advice on the Save Princes Parade web site:

saveprincesparade.org/local-plan-consultation-issues-options/

I have to say it took me a few attempts before I managed to post my comments, so I put together an "idiot's guide" (mainly for my own use:because I'm an idiot!)

You can read the full consultation document and respond to it using Shepways portal here:

shepway-consult.objective.co.uk/portal

This is part of my site The 'Gerald that I built in a fury of excitement when I first came to Folkestone in approximately '04. I'd been a regular visitor for a few years before that so I am technically one of those Down From Londons you get now. The site used to be a lot more dynamic with a gig calendar and voting for best venues and things, and I know it was a handy reference for others who were thinking of moving here. Now I've moved out of Folkestone again (though only a couple of miles) it doesn't get as much attention as it used to. Ironic really as Folkestone itself is becoming the exciting place we knew it was just about to. I am not Gerald BTW, this comes from a fake newspaper in an episode of Brasseye or something, the Portsmouth Gerald, and how there is a local newspaper here called the Folkestone Herald. Puns like this are great aren't they? Do contact me if you have anything to offer, email anythign @ this domain, or try @folkestone or @pauly on Twitter.
