THE owners of two hotels will find out tomorrow if they can demolish them or convert them into flats and houses.

The Planning panel will decide on an application to knock down Hotel des Pierres in St Ouen to build seven flats and a request to demolish the hotel wings and swimming pool of the West View Hotel in St Mary to convert the original house to two houses and to build a further six houses at the back of the main house.

Meanwhile, Deputy Jackie Hilton plans to attend the Planning meeting this week with a number of La Pouquelaye residents who are against a separate application to build 54 homes on a field near the Channel Television building.

    Overpopulated moans that “According to the JEP property supplement few people are able to get mortgages unless they have large deposits and a squeaky clean credit record.”

    ‘Twas ever thus, and all the more so after banks (including more than one Jersey-based one) offered sub-prime mortgages to people who could not afford to repay them.
