Hide AdMosaique chief executive Aized Sheikh said: “Our commitment to Worthing and to our vision for Teville Gate is absolute.
“For two years, we have kept our heads down and worked tirelessly to overcome obstacles both above and below the ground, focusing on creating a genuinely viable, deliverable, scheme for Teville Gate. We will be throwing the covers from our designs and asking for the community’s feedback early in November.
“We have invested heavily in Worthing because we see its potential as a rising star on the south coast. I am absolutely confident that we have the vision and proposals for an exciting, desirable and realistic development on this important site.”
The development timetable has slipped since Mosaique purchased the site in 2015, with a public consultation first promised two years ago.
