Questions at Full Council (1)

Heritage Assets and the Former Convent Site. “Councillor Ross asked how the Council was using its powers to address the early deterioration and risk of heritage assets across Hastings, and what changes would be made to procedures and oversight to reduce the likelihood of further heritage buildings being lost.”
The answer, as minuted: “Councillor Haffenden advised that there were limitations on what could be said publicly due to ongoing legal proceedings. He stated that officers had been working with partner agencies since 2025 to secure the site and that extensive work had been undertaken.”
