Quote ="Mrs Barista"It's not complicated, is it? You said the insurmountable stumbling block for Costello was that consent wasn't granted over a decade ago to house 2 or even 3 professional clubs due to associated traffic congestion. It's pretty obvious that an alternative site for a sporting village (not including a stadium for professional clubs) would be an entirely different proposition from a planning consent perspective, and the council would know this before tabling the proposal. As WorminHand has said, more than once, Cllr Geraghty was NOT the lone council representative in the last meeting.
I don't know the value of the Costello site. I would imagine it would be less than the land round the KC, but valuations depend on consent granted. A1 food consent (eg for supermarkets, which it has recently emerged is part of the £3,000 plans we've not yet seen) significantly increases value of land.'"
So the so called unseen plans provide enough information to predict the impact of the development on Costello? It's acceptable to gift the Costello land, but not the KC stadium?
