Council leader makes Saltdean Lido pledge
Brighton and Hove City Council (BHCC) leader Mary Mears has said that a large housing development will not be permitted for the site of a historic 1930s lido in Saltdean.
Concerns had been raised after it was revealed that the leaseholder of Saltdean Lido's eyed up plans for more than 100 flats on the site. However, Mears said: "I want both the leaseholder and residents to forget about the idea of putting significant amounts of housing on this site. It is a complete non-starter."
It comes after campaigners fighting to secure the lido's future were handed a boost after it was confirmed that the property's listing had been upgraded to Grade II* status. Save Saltdean Lido is looking to bring the lido back into use as a community leisure facility, with Conran and Partners working on the scheme.
