Chorlton Meadows campaign - Planning Meeting deferred
The date for the Planning meeting to consider the football pitches application has been put back to 17th December; this is to allow more time for responses from the public (see earlier posts for more information on this campaign). Further to that Planning meeting a site visit is planned for the morning of 14th January 2010, with a decision to be made that afternoon.
Trafford Mega Tesco - the Plans have been submitted!
The plans have been submitted, but aren't available for public scrutiny at the moment. According to the accompanying press release, it appears that the size of the Tesco store has been reduced somewhat from the earlier figure of 147,000 sq. ft., to 100,00 sq. ft. It seems that Stretford Leisure Centre has avoided the chop but the Police Station and Trafford College look set for closure/relocation.
Officially, there are 3 weeks within which to analyse the plans and lodge objections. Hopefully, due to the sheer scale of the development, there will be some sort of extension to this.
The campaign against the MegaTesco working group are meeting on Tues 17th Nov. 7.30pm at Gorse Hill Church on Chester Road, and welcome new people to get involved.
