Sorry if i have missed any announcements but do we have a timescale for the planning meeting or not? The last thing i heard was it should have been in December but thats history now. Its the not knowing that boils my P**s CTID

There’s a meeting in February if we’re on the agenda,failing that March. Apparently we’ve had consultation meetings with the EA who wanted a few tweaks to be satisfied,I understand these have been made and would hope they will lift their objection prior to any planning meeting.

Mark grattan said in the latest podcast that hopefully February and then we can make hay with an announcement at the wigan match.

Thanks all curiosity sated for a few weeks fingers crossed CTID

Just been told we are on the planning meeting on Feb 15th fingers crossed

pirate great news. A rubber stamping as its been in since 2022 and all the points raised have been dealt with Gonna be a great day.

great news, lets hope we finally get the green light

GOOD NEWS ALERT!!!! After reviewing the re-submitted flood risk assessment he EA has officially removed it’s objections! Providing we come up with suitable emergency planning and evacuation procedures (which is standard stuff we’d have to do to get a saefty certificate) then we are good to go to commitee! Whether that is next month or in March remains to be seen but this is one major hurdle out of the way!

yes great news & lest hope all the other stuff we might need is sorted so that building work can start

Great that the EA have lifted their objection,now it only remains for the planning committee to do their bit and we can start moving forward.

There is now no official reason not to rubber stamp it. All interested parties have had their say, there are no endangered newts or wildlufe, and the only thing left is a vote and there would have to be pre known issues to prevent its passing. Not just auntie Joanne being prevented from seeing the Wakefield newcold building from their loft window. The next stop will be the stadium being passed and the Axiom part being passed pending the monies being transferred over to the stadium build account. For the naysayers, I still don’t know why the Axiom people would put this much in and jump every hurdle to then pull out. I think this is it, really is this time. However, we may end up being the only sporting club that will have to have a dedicated RNLI boat and crew standing by 24 hours a day should we get flooded.

ive just received an email telling me the planning committee is looking at hybrid planning application for coal extraction off Spittle Hardwick lane?

Pat

Yes I’ve received the same email for 15 feb looking good.

mdean

I think anyone who registered support/objection for this and related scheme’s automatically gets notified.
Surprisingly efficient for local authority!

Maturecasfan

Just received mine.
Fingers crossed.

TheFirm

Both applications recommended for approval. Big step!

pirate

getting a bit gddy about this and walking about with a big grin on my face which is not a good look for a 67 year old

same here, its put some enthusiasm in my 76 year old legs

RaoulDuke The Newmarket scheme was called in, but policy has changed since then. I agree it’s highly unlikely it would be called in now at this stage with a week to go and it can’t be once the decision is issued. But there will be nerves until that decision is made and then officially published. And providing everything has been done by the book (and i’m pretty sure it will have been) then it’s finally done and i can breathe easier!

RaoulDuke

TheFirm called and sent back. No 3yr investigation.

pirate

While the rebuild is ongoing I suggest we play home games at Scarborough athletic football ground, just an Idea

pirate or york, 😉

Barnsley would do for me 👍 not a bad stadium either, sure they’d let us use it!

RaoulDuke
What does that mean, I am a bit thick on these matters

TheFirm

RaoulDuke It wasn’t just sent back. Newmarket took 18 months from being called in to been given the thumbs up by the secretary of state (Dec 2010 to June 2012).

If we get a positive outcome it will go as ‘minded to approve’ and sent to the S.O.S. office for review. Given the changes in policy since Newmarket hopefully this one will come straight back. Having an existing PP on the site will help.

RaoulDuke

TheFirm just thinking about this. The initial application was sent to sos back on 2010, did the change of use at Newmarket go to sos aswell? The change from council sports facility to warehouses. I seem to think there’s was sent and returned because they were paid out very quickly by the Newmarket people.

RaoulDuke

I was under the impression it was returned relatively fast with no investigation necessary. I got that from a wakey fan.

Here’s hoping for a quick result.

TheFirm

RaoulDuke Sadly not (for them). fingers crossed we get a quick positive decision.

Then i’m hoping Axiom/Lateral already have some tenants ready to sign up pretty quick.

Maturecasfan

All fingers crossed for today’s meeting.
Do the right thing WMDC, for the town of Castleford.

Maturecasfan

APPROVED.

GET IN.

BUT…..The Tigers are now just waiting on approval of the Axiom proposals as well.

Another delay, as surely we can not start on our ground improvements until the Axiom proposals are passed.
