CHUG update February 2012

Network Carradale's Harbour sub-committee has met twice over the last month and progress is being maintained on several fronts.

Moorings.
An aplication has been made to Crown Estates for permission to place 4 moorings off Shore Road.
They will be available for yachts and powerboats to overnight when visiting Carradale. A fee structure and terms & conditions are being finalised, plus insurance cover is being obtained. The practicalities of sourcing and placing the moorings have already been taken care of.

Website.
A website domain name has been registered, www.carradaleharbour.co.uk and will be used to publicise the moorings and any future developement of the harbour area.

Harbour Area Redevelopement.
An architect's brief has been produced that is being sent to selected architechtural practices that have a proven history of small harbour developement. We expect to appoint a practice within the next 2 months to produce a master plan of the area that can be taken forward, given the support of the village and suitable finance being found.
Discussions are still ongoing with ABC regarding harbour management.
