What you need to do is contact MC via the contact page on the club site and ask him what he wants us to do on this issue. You’ll get a reply he’s pretty good if not instant.

Then if he wants us to support it then put a link on here and I’m sure plenty will.

I can do it for you if you wish but to be honest you seem to have far more idea of how this all works than I do.

Hope that helps

I did ask, and received this reply today. As you have said in the past, the club are Pro-Active,

Thanks for your enquiry.

Plot 8 is indeed the “enabling” development which will provide much of the funding for our redevelopment at Belle Vue.

The intention is that both that application as well as our own will come to Planning Committee in November.

We are currently discussing the detail of the S106 Agreement which links the two Applications. Once we are happy with that Agreement we will let everyone know that we will be supporting the Plot 8 Application and encourage our supporters to do likewise.

It is essentially down to negotiating the best deal we can for the Stadium before we are prepared to support.

Will keep you all informed when we can!

Hope you are keeping well

John

I assumed that they were funding it ALL, but that suggests otherwise, so where is the additional funding coming from then, MC/JM or another source such as grants etc ???

Floodlights, pitch and roofing not paid for by plot 8. The council are making a contribution it seems according to the planning statement.

For the 4G pitch, we are funding that plus a number of more minor bits and pieces. I wouldn't read too much into that comment. He may also be including the floodlights as well.

The deal was and as far as I'm aware still is the same, East Stand/North Terrace and Clubhouse to be funded by the developer's money.

The vital one by a mile is the East stand.

Thought John might answer as he's the driving force regarding the stadium, but MC usually answers most inquiries. Looks like they have a handle on it.

These documents were added onto the developers planning application on Monday This week. My usual reliable source informs me these documents needed to be resubmitted with modifications from the original ones, to meet the requirements of the application, hence the delay in the application being heard.
Basically, it’s information of existing power lines above and below ground/ gas supply pipes, around the development area, and the legal requirements of the developers regarding safety etc.

Roll on 18th November

This month’s planning meeting was due tomorrow the 14th that got cancelled last Friday. The November planning meeting is scheduled for Thursday 18th. The meeting Agenda is published during the week before the meeting.
I had another look at the plot 8 application, and there is another seven documents added today.
These seven are from, The Coal Authorities, Highways England and Yorkshire Wildlife Trust.
The YWT document along with the TPO (tree preservation order) which was added to the application last week, both give me a little concern, due to the enforcement powers they appear to have with Environmental matters. These could be the fly in the ointment for the plot 8 application. It would not help our enabling fund if our application is passed but not the plot 8, as we don’t receive funding until the plot 8 application is also passed.
