About SHRA

Introduction

The Sovereign Harbour Residents Association (SHRA) was established in 2000 to consolidate and represent the views of the entire Harbour community.

Sovereign Harbour residents and householders have an essential part to play in ensuring the continuing success of our community, through appropriate growth, for the benefit of fellow householders and marina visitors alike. SHRA exists to give homeowners and residents a louder and coordinated voice.

Issues

Sovereign Harbour is a great place to live, but it lacks some of the social infrastructure necessary to turn a large residential area into a centred and sustainable community.

The Association works hard to communicate, address and resolve this infrastructure issue, and many others, with a wide variety of individuals, companies, organisations and local and national government bodies.

If you have an issue you would like to discuss, please contact SHRA.

Concerns

Concerns we have raised, and continue to raise, include:

• No more residential development.
• No more flats.
• No B&Q Superstore.
• A purpose built medical centre.
• A purpose built and adequately funded community centre.
• Fair and transparent flood protection charges.
• A Community Council.
• A cross-harbour bus lane and more frequent bus services.
• Appropriate development of the Eleven Sites.
• Parking, speeding and road adoption.
• Finalisation of the ‘Marina Village’ concept and the business park.
• Provision of appropriate open spaces.
• Bridge raising times.
• Litter and dog fouling.
