He spoke about the complex process of reforming the planning law, about the need for the draft planning law to be approved by various Hua Hin communities. The planning law needs to be fair for everybody as much as possible.   

Next Chief of Public Works & Planning of Hua Hin Planning Department Khun Pichet  Panapong has presented to all members the draft planning document. As a result of the discussion which has followed some of the Legislature paragraphs and sections were amended.

During the meeting, concern has been expressed about beer bars being located very close to the Hua Hin Temple. There is a need to relocate businesses to relevant business zones. Among other issues was discussed a new rule regarding topping up land with soil. Some land owners top up their land plots with so much soil that this has a negative effect on neighbouring properties during rain fall.

Khun Somchai Srivibul who is Expert of Landscape & City Plannning said that any part of the draft documents can be still amended further pending input from local communities. The committee wants to have draf document acceptable to all Hua Hin residents. The Public Prosecutor has questioned some parts of the draft document Khun Somchai said that it will be very easy to correct it. He said that there are almost 3000 foreigners living in Hua Hin. Some of the foreigners run almost illegal property businesses selling house and leasing land plots without the correct documents and at the same time cheating other expats wanting to live in Hua Hin. To help buyers deal with these problems the Governor opened Hua Hin Foreigner Service Link Center. Officials at the center can offer advice how to purchase property without being cheated.
