Bandstand verdict due soon A DECISION about moving the bandstand on Bognor Regis seafront is set to be made soon. THe debate on relocating the historic structure is due to take place in the next three months. A feasilbity study into the possibility was resumed this week, the Post can reveal, after a halt to the work was ordered in the early summer. THe councillor behind that decision,

Bognor Regis regeneration subcommittee chairman Phil Hitchins, said it was important to find out as soon as possible if the bandstand could be placed at Arun District Council’s preferred location of Waterloo Square Gardens. Cllr Hitchins (C, Aldwick W) said: “I have given the go-ahead for the feasibility study to be re-started. We can’t do anything at that end of the promenade

until we know if the bandstand can be moved. “THe study will be carried out by the council’s engineers so it should not take too long, though they are busy with work on the Hothamton linear park plans and the Regis Centre sites for the regeneration and other schemes. “If we can move it, that will be a decision that will come to the sub-committee. We will have an extra meeting in December

and get the bandstand sorted in January. “If we can’t move it, the council might have to consider changing its strategy for the seafront. But at least we will know. “Until we do that feasibility study, we are just in abeyance. Everything is up in the air.” THe potential move of the bandstand has been controversial with seafront residents and some councillors since it Turn to page five
