Plans for a parish to buy an “important” community garden area in a former shipyard for £1 have been approved.
During a St Helier assembly meeting, a proposal from Constable Simon Crowcroft to purchase Allix’s Shipyard in Havre des Pas with the aim of bringing the site back to a “good state of repair” was unanimously backed.
Immediate repairs worth an estimated £7,000 were also approved with the meeting told further refurbishments could cost about £100,000.
Money to restore the site would be gathered through the Buildings Reserve Fund, a report presented at the meeting said.
