We’re pleased to announce that we have now formally submitted the planning application for the refurbishment of the Looe Coastguard Flats. This a huge step forward in our goal to create high-quality, affordable homes for local people that are efficient, and environmentally responsible. As the application progresses through the planning process, public support will be a key factor in its success. The more positive feedback received from local residents and stakeholders, the stronger the case becomes for granting approval.
