I love Cornwall

Cornwall is a stunning place and it is a privilege to live here. Understanding that tourism is part of the economy however to what cost? We must rethink and employ a professional company that actually understands the management of tourism, involving the residents with their opinions however no input from local Councillors. Cornwall’s track record in the tourism industry especially in this present climate is embarrassing. This present free for all policy damaging to the landscape: litter, erosion, fires, disturbance to livestock, vandalism. Traffic congestion and pollution to other businesses and residents. Local goods can become expensive because tourists will pay more. Shops stock products for tourists and not everyday goods needed by locals. Residents having to pay excessive water and sewerage rates and car parking for tourism. Jobs here are mainly seasonal, low paid with long hours.

.

We have felt the benefits of the lockdown if sustainable please let’s go green and be the forerunner for a change, have an electric peoples car all exactly the same in design made purely from recycled materials which can eventually all link together for computerised long distance safe travelling. Stop all second homes. All second homes in Cornwall when put on the market must be sold as residential. These homes must then be occupied by residents or people who want to relocate here and be part of the County. Agents are stating there's been a spike in buyers who want to locate in Cornwall so let them come and rebuild our communities. No more caravans or camper vans, all holiday letting must be static. Build an out of town carpark around the Tamar, £100 a week, visitors can have free electric cars for the duration of their holiday on designated routes so the County can function without congestion with organised roads and sustainable green credentials Cornwall will attract new businesses as the best and safest place in the UK.
