THE FATE of a controversial Tiree beach hut, built at Balevullin without planning permission, is still hanging in the balance – despite councillors meeting for a third time to discuss the matter, writes Sandy Neil.
Councillors have again put off making a decision about the beach hut on Tiree. Surfing business owner Iona Larg told the The Oban Times the decision could mean the end of her business and force the family to move off the island.
Tiree entrepreneur Iona Larg, who runs surfing company Blackhouse Watersports on the island, which is billed as ‘the Hawaii of the north’, submitted two retrospective planning applications for two wooden beach huts at Balevullin beach and at Gott Bay in December 2015.
