The fact is that there simply is no need for development of West Park or the Fairground - if fact, to do so would be heinous crimes.
There could be an argument for development of the land east of the stadium - the apparent waste land to either side of the walkway between Argyle street and the KC, between the railway lines. Not actually sure who owns this - is it the Council?
However, even here, there is no requisite for a retail park of any description. A leisure park would be nice but only if self sufficient and, frankly, in light of the use of existing Council facilities, it probably isn't going to be. So Heigh Ho. No crucial pressing need for development at all - despite the Red Herring Blind Uncle Harry keeps chucking up in the air.
A retail park would be inappropriate given the devastating effect even current overkill has had on the city centre and existing retail complexes, and would give nothing to the community at all.
So, in direct contrast to BUH
's assertions, it is the council who can afford to sit back and do nothing - and rightly so, there being no need for imminent action. It's the Allams - for whom it is essential they get their hands on the KC - who must therefore approach the Council with humility and an astounding idea that doesn't involve shops.
They can't - not possible in the current climate. That's why the Council feel safe in calling their bluff.'"
You think the area around the stadium doesn't need developing? There's no accounting for taste.
As soon has Mr Allam said give me the K C Stadium I would have said Good Bye
plus no plans on the table ..I have work for the Council and they don't do business that way ..They like it neat and tidy every thing in it's box ..There was no comeback from the sale of the Council Bus Company everything was check and double checked .
