It is ironic the Government decided to not call-in the West Pier at the same time as the eminent City Forum enjoined that planning should strive for excellence (The Argus, March 14).
On a scale of mediocrity, the St Modwen plans were about average, which is why I couldn't bring myself to vote for passing such plans, apart from all the damage to our seafront.
Nevertheless, Voice of The Argus (March 12) is correct to draw the line underneath now.
Let's hope St Modwen starts soon, unlike its other site at the Sunblest Bakery, Woodingdean.
