The Committee considered a report which proposed a part of the harbour estate at Oxen Cove, in Brixham, be leased for use as a boatyard. The Committee discussed the benefits this would provide such as a boat repairing facility in the Bay, supporting local businesses and employment, apprenticeships for young people and an extra tourist attraction. The Committee agreed that the proposal be approved providing that a clear waste management policy and Health & Safety risk assessment were in place.
Resolved:
1) that the Harbour Committee supported the proposal to lease part of the harbour estate at Oxen Cove, Brixham harbour for use as a boatyard;
2) That the Harbour Committee supported the continued use of part of Oxen Cove as an area for the winter storage of boats and the storage of fishing gear and equipment relating to the safe and efficient operation of the harbour; and
3) That, subject to approval from the Homes and Community Agency, the Executive Head of Tor Bay Harbour Authority, in consultation with the Chairman of the Harbour Committee, use his delegated authority to grant a lease, for a maximum of 7 years, for part of the harbour estate at Oxen Cove, for use as a boatyard.
