Meanwhile, it's not a very good time to be seeking any financial help from the council to build (or in our case re-build) any community sporting facilities:-
www.wakefield.gov.uk/Pages/News/PR4855.aspx
"Based on current Government indications, the Council is expecting to have to make further savings beyond 2015/16 through to 2019/20 to the value of £66m"
To get to that saving - further job losses within the council, an increase in council tax by 2%, no more sport development activity and a shrinking of public services.
On the plus side, one of WMDC's investments is highlighted as "£15m in Leisure in the Five Towns and South East of the District". I wonder what that could be?

I think it is the proposal to close Knottingley Sports Centre, Pontefract, Castleford and other 5 towns swimming pools due to high maintenance costs. Replacing with one new fitness/sports/swimming facilty at Pontefract Park [uor[/u Prince of Wales site [uor[/u Glasshoughton and a new pool at Minsthorpe

Capital and revenue budgets are often (rightly) different pots though.

| I thought this land went through the PI when LCC was pushing it as an alternative for NM. I also thought it had already been allocated for development therefore it would be unlikely to go to a PI, especially with the fat man favouring local issues being decided by local authorities, and let's be honest Box ain't going to knock this back.

Come public inquiry my fellow concerned citizens can make an emotional plea about the Children......What about the children I say? In the mean time I'll try and persuade Mr Carter to send a strongly worded letter to the PI that a community stadium isn't required in such a location because a viable alternative (and truly community inclusive) is been built anyday at Newmarket, i don't see anything unethical in that?

Its not Fat Eric you should be worried about, try reading Fat Nigel's letter of support for the stadium. Then again if you're worried about sharing with us don't read it. For the record and as I've said before I wouldn't like to share at NM or GH or the M word would soon raise its ugly head.

They've already got one on Agbrigg Road, unless it's an Indian Restaurant.

Fair question I thought, no need to be so touchy. Glad to hear its not been called in. So when can we realistically expect building to start?
