What Future for Margate

This is the first entry in what I hope proves to be a lively and influential debate on the future of Margate. Over the last few months we have it seen the culmination of what appears to be bad planning with the Turner contemporary Gallery. What is now called at the Turner offshore, was the winning bid in a competition in which I believe every other entry had been designed to be built on the rendezvous site. Why KCC or whoever was actually responsible for choosing the Turner contemporary Gallery design ever thought this would be a practical and sensible design is a frankly beyond belief for many people. For this reason I personally would like to keep development of the revised Turner contemporary gallery under the spotlight of public scrutiny. I honestly believe that ordinary members of the public like myself, sit back watch quietly as planning authorities all too frequently cock up.
