Wrong priorities
We have a population of around 150,000 in and around the Littlehampton area.
It seems, according to the planners, that the area needed, and got, four superstores, seven supermarkets, two frozen food shops and approximately 14 cafés, plus eateries in the town centre.

Littlehampton’s recently acquired residential harbour complex should have been the start of its updating as a seaside resort. Unfortunately, because of the lack of the medical and entertainment facilities, it just doesn’t meet the criteria of the locals or potential visitors.
The town needs revitalising.
It may well have groups that hold activities and meetings, but it also needs entertainment for all groups under one roof, that caters for the masses.
Where is the council going to spend the £100.000-plus that was donated by Morrisons to the town?
Surely not more hanging baskets.

Please let the council tax payers have some input as regards the revitalising of our town.
Don’t leave it all to the big wigs and councillors. T
his should be discussed, so that everyone is in the picture.
