Quote ="Inflatable_Armadillo"I just posted this on another thread but thought I should post it here as well because it is important -
Newmarket Community Stadium will happen if people continue to work towards making it happen. The club have confirmed that a move to the proposed Newmarket Community Stadium is commercial viable as a NL1 side not just SL and Yorkcourt are committed to the deal either way. The stadium will be SL compliant, so if the worst happens then I suspect a return to SL for Wakefield would be very possible in three years.
As for the Newmarket development happening then it is highly likely that warehousing and distribution units will be built on at least a minimum of 33ha of the site as it will be taken out of Green-belt by a target date of March 2012 via the LDF process.
The support for Newmarket is vital for the community sport facilities, jobs and as a new home for professional sport in the city of Wakefield. People need to understand that Newmarket will continue with or without Wakefield Trinity and there current financial problems and the stadium will be available for whomever wishes to use it in the future irrespective. If that is the current Wakefield Trinity Wildcats or a 'new' Wakefield Trinity Wildcats or even a football or Rugby Union team, it will be there if we fight for it!'"
Hi IA
That is the point. The document is a "draft" but as you know the Newmarket proposal of 30Ha had the most "on-line" objections 75% (I have no idea about other written ones etc)mainly fron individuals, but one from Leeds City Council, and one report compiled on behalf of residents by a leading Planning Consultant Firm who highlighted amongst other points the following:
"We also object to the process and the robustness of the assessment in identifying this site for development."
You use the term "Highly likely" in your posts and on your poster, but people have to remember that the document you keep referring to is a "draft". The final document after consultations as above have been taken on board will go before the Council sometime soon (late January/early Feb). When ratified by the Council it will go for further consultation regarding the process and then it will pass to
The Secretary of State - Eric Pickles who will
Appoint a Planning Inspector to conduct an Inquiry into the Councils proposals and as you know he will take into account the Yorkcourt application.
So to say that development of part of the site is "Highly Likely" may be a bit over the top.
Some may equally say that it is "highly likely" that the Inspector may throw out the proposal for the 30 ha development.
I understand it now!'"
I'm watching
