Lake Biminy plans approved by council
The development, on the site of Border Park Services, on the A68 at Rochester, will feature a new fishing lake, seven log cabins, six craft workshops, a fully-functioning observatory, sewage treatment plant, boathouse and extension/refurbishment of the existing shop/café.
Applicant Eric Balki , CEO of TriPyramid Ventures, said: “For years, we have seen a declining population, especially a demographic shift with younger population moving to cities. Projects like this will help us retain and build upon rural micro economies and invest for the future, retaining young talent in the areas and providing them with jobs and opportunities.
