Watkin Property Ventures wants to change the site’s use. Lock Stock Storage would run the new facility. They are based in Denbigh. Businesses and people could rent storage containers. The company sent an application to Cyngor Gwynedd planners.
Watkin says the project will help local businesses. They say it also helps the community. The facility would offer much-needed storage options. Similar projects boosted small businesses elsewhere. They gave space for expanding businesses. This helps the local economy grow.
Lock Stock focuses on security and being eco-friendly. They also integrate with the community. Watkin believes the project will help Caernarfon prosper. It respects the heritage and landscape. Watkin hopes Gwynedd Council approves the project. They believe it aids Caernarfon’s growth.
