Questionnaires are available and comments on the first draft are welcome until

made as necessary and the Appraisal will be adopted by ELDC and used as part of
the process to assess future planning applications in the Louth Conservation
Area.
SUPERMARKET DEBATE
On Tuesday 29th July 2008 Louth Town Council hosted
a meeting for town centre shop keepers and businesses to debate the possibility
of a large supermarket coming to Louth. Debate centred around whether
development should be in the centre of town, edge of town or out of town. The
consensus of opinion was that a large supermarket of 30,000 square feet would be
best sited in the town centre and should not be sited on the edge or outside of
town. However, attendees felt that a better solution for Louth, rather
than allowing a large supermarket, would be to let either the existing
supermarkets develop by a further 10,000 square feet, or so, each, or allow two
or three smaller supermarkets to develop, in the centre of town, to meet the
30,000 square feet need for retail development that ELDC have identified. Finally,
attendees were of the opinion that town centre car parking needs to be reviewed
and changed.

FREE TREES FOR
PARISHES SCHEME 2008
Louth Town
Council has once again been invited to apply to receive
25 small trees
(60-90cm) with the option of tubes as protection or 250 hedge plants (30-60cm)
in multiples of 25 with the option of spirals as protection or 5 large trees
(1.75 – 2m) with the option of a stake, tree tie and strimmer guard or a pro
rata mix of the above where 1 small tree = 10 hedge plants, 1 large tree = 50
hedge plants. At
a meeting of the Louth Town Council Planning and Environment Committee held on
24th June 2008
Councillors agreed to
promote the above scheme with local groups and ask that any organisations
interested in receiving free trees etc., contact the Town Clerk with their
application. The Town Clerk will then collate responses and present the
cases to the Town Council for them to decide who will benefit, before the
closing date for applications of 30th September 2008. Please note
that full details of the above scheme are available to view in the Town Clerk's
office or by clicking on the link below.
