An appeal hearing is to take place over rejected plans for a marina.
Ian Wilson, of Blackwater Marina Ltd, wants to refurbish, remodel and extend an existing boatyard and marina in the centre of Blackwater Marina at The Esplanade, Mayland.
Mr Wilson also wants to create a new residential area with 13 units along the south-eastern end of the site and The Esplanade, along with the refurbishment of the existing corrugated tin shed in the south-western corner.
As part of the same plans, he has also applied to remodel and extend an existing brick structure to include a new open terrace facing Mundon Creek.
He lodged the appeal after his plans were refused by Maldon District Council.
The Planning Inspectorate is due to hold an appeal hearing at 10am on Tuesday, June 9, at the council offices in Princes Road, Maldon.
