Officers hope to nail more feedback on future of town

Friday 14 August 2015


You can pick up some DIY tips at all the big hardware stores over the coming weeks whilst giving your views on the future of St Helier.

The Environment department’s planning and building officers are going on the road and giving free home improvement advice at B&Q, Normans and Romerils.

They’ll even let you know if you need to get planning permission for your next big project in the hope of getting some good feedback on how town could be improved.

They will be at B&Q at Normans at Five Oaks today from 11am until 2pm and at Romerils Inspirational Home Show in Dumaresq Street on 12 September from 8.30am until 4pm.

They got hundreds of responses on the street at the Fête de St Helier and at the recent feedback sessions in Don Street as well as online and you don’t have to be a townie to have your say on what town should look like.

The Council of Ministers say the regeneration of St Helier has been one of their priorities since the Island Plan was approved in 2011 setting out the following vision for it: “To create a vibrant, compact and characterful town that is worthy of its role as Jersey’s capital and principal settlement, with an economically sustainable future which offers the highest quality of life for its communities.”

You can take part in the consultation here.
