Encourage the building of a quality attraction such as an ice rink,opera house, music venue or casino on the Pavillion site,

Nice idea except you'll never get planning permission for an ice rink because of the lack of Parking; put it up by the Ski Slope.
Opera House or Music Venue? No, for the same reason, plus it would be in direct completion with Venue Cymru which can't make a commercial success of it's operation as it is.
As for the Casino idea, sorry Oscar what’s the use in having a Casino with no Bar as it's in the covenants that you can't sell alcohol on the site and oh yes did I mention you can't gamble on the site either.
He does love to express his opinions but I wish he was a little better informed before he stirred up this old muck heap once again
DaveR:
It was actually a commentator on Oscar's blog that put forward the ideas, not the great man himself. ;)
The Covenants restricting the usage are in favour of the Pier's owners, currently Six Piers Ltd. In the scenario presented, the Pavilion site and Pier would be reunited under single ownership, therefore the Covenants would not be relevant.
Incidentally, I wonder if the Pavilion site's current owner realises that he is responsible for 50% of the cost of repairs to the sea wall outside the Pavilion?

On the subject of repairs: if my reading of the covenants contained in the Pier Conveyance are correct, 6 piers are resposable for: and I quote
"And also that the Llandudno Company ( now 6 Piers ) shall and will unless and until their said Pier Landing stage and other works or some parts thereof shall cease by due authority of law to be open for public use at all times will and effectually uphold maintain and repair the said Pier Landing stage and all necessary works and conveniences connected therewith or so much thereof as shall be authorised for full use in a state and condition fit and proper for public use"
I wonder how they got out of that one, or why, when the Landing Stage was closed due to its unsafe condition, the Council didn't serve them an enforcement order to repair and restore it for Public use.
DaveR:
The repairs to the decking have been completed and workmen are preparing to reinstate the handrail. Credit to MP Marine from Maryport, the standard of their work is very good.
