Sue Bowser of Croftmarsh, who is working alongside the team at East Lindsey District Council to help bring the scheme to fruition, said: “We have farmed the land for over 30 years with a long-term view that certain areas of land could be used for development, and we are very excited to see those plans starting to take shape. We believe that the scheme being proposed will act as a catalyst for positive change for Skegness and position the town in its rightful place in the East Midlands as a place with opportunity and ambition.
“As a family, we have lived and worked in Skegness for generations and are incredibly passionate about delivering a scheme that we – and the rest of the town – can be proud of, and we believe that what we are proposing will do that.

Single contactless card payments will rise from £45 to £100 this year, after the coronavirus pandemic prompted a further move away from cash.
Chancellor Rishi Sunak announced the move during his budget for 2021 on Wednesday afternoon in the House of Commons.
It is believed that the limit increase on a single payment with a contactless card will encourage shoppers to go cashless for public health reasons.
The £100 limit can be introduced as early as Wednesday, though businesses can choose to accept or reject it, and systems will have to be updated to incorporate it, so customers may not be able to use it right away.

Two teenagers who were involved in a county lines drug operation have been given suspended jail sentences at Lincoln Crown Court on Wednesday.
Officers stopped and arrested two men at Lincoln railway station in April 2019, and the subsequent inquiry led officers to a property in the Monks Road area of the city which was being used as a base for selling ecstasy.
Lisa Hardy, prosecuting, said that drugs were being brought from outside of the city to the ground floor flat in Cannon Street.
The 18-year-old living at the flat was not in when police arrived in April 2019 but his then teenage partner was there and was arrested.
