I have to admit that I'm rather excited by all this but I do think a trick is being missed in terms of housing - even if there is no housing on the develpment itself the council shoudl think about a s.106 obligation to contribute toward the cost of new housing in the area? One would like to think this is already in their minds.

And as for a hotel - I do hope it's one that friends and family can actually afford to stay in rather than some ridiculously high end place.
