| How far are we a long compared to Castleford and Salford, who currently seem to be our major rivals for the drop? This is mainly what I’ve heard from certain people but I’m not too sure about some of this and if anyone could share any information and help clarify/confirm our situation in relation to the other clubs it would be appreciated.
Us - Just got the basic planning permission, however due to the wait we have had, seem to have sorted out any future problems. Also it’s now in the hands of the regional government, who want this kind of development. Plus we have funding for our stadium. This is all good and short of discovering a Roman temple under Newmarket should get the go ahead.
Castleford – Also have basic planning permission but still haven’t applied for detailed, although I’d expect that to change around Monday or Tuesday. Funding the project seems like a problem with a large chunk of money coming from the sale of the old ground. However surely since 2006, which was when the ground was priced, or so I’ve been told, the value of the land must have dropped. On top of that could the buyer not decide to move to the factory site instead of the ground if the ban on building has been removed?
Salford – Have planning permission and seem ahead at the minute however, there seems to be some problems with funding, haven’t heard a lot about Salford.
Also I’d like to point out I hope that the League is expanded instead of a team being dropped.
If this is the wrong place to post then sorry, but it seemed like a logical place for this type of post.
I'd also like to add my thanks to the people who made this happen.

| Quote ="FIL""8.14 Finally, para 8.3 of the Site Allocations document identifies that Wakefield’s economy
is inextricably linked with that of the wider Leeds City region and needs to take full
advantage of opportunities presented by the continued growth of the Leeds
economy. Aire Valley Leeds a 1,000 hectare site to the south of Leeds is the most
significant employment opportunity within the Leeds City region. This represents a
more appropriate location for large scale warehousing and freight distribution linked
to an urban eco settlement if a more appropriate site cannot be found within
Wakefield district.
8.15 In addition, there are employment sites in Leeds District has the following sites which
are available now or in the short term where plots of this size could be offered, as
follows:
LOCATION SITE
AREA
S/O SKELTON GRANGE PWR STN LS9 26.70
BELL WOOD SITE (E4:9) OFF
PONTEFRACT LANE LS9
59.92
B2/B8 ELEMENT SKELTON MOOR FARM
PONTEFRACT LANE LS9

Ph2 HAWKS PARK NORTH NEWHOLD
ABERFORD ROAD GARFORTH
16.80
Ph1 WAREHOUSE HAWKS PARK NORTH
NEWHOLD ABERFORD ROAD
GARFORTH
7.25
8.16 If sites of 5 ha plus are considered, which could offer c 20000 sq.m. (220k sq.ft.)
this adds in two more
HUB62 BRUNTCLIFFE ROAD MORLEY
LS27
5.94
Page 60
SANDBECK LANE WETHERBY LS22 6.28
Therefore, it comes down to four sites that would be impacted by the proposed
scheme. Of these, it would be the Bellwood, Skelton Moor and Skelton Grange sites
that feature most prominently in Leeds’ regeneration ambitions in AVL."
So once you have cut through the bullsh*t, they want the jobs and warehouses for themselves....

I know ,it's sort of counter productive and looks like they are objecting because they have some warehouse space to shift. Their arrogance knows no bounds.

| It's nice to see LCC's frothing outrage; for once, WMDC are refusing to act like vassals and clearly, they don't like it up 'em.

| Quote ="Shameless"That really is taking the proverbial. LCC = Uber-NIMBY's.'" It would seem so.
The problem is that they may bend more ears that 3 people and their 1000 letters.
