I note the temporary training ground application expiry date is now 22 March. I seem to recall this was end of Feb previously

 

[Holy Joe]

And from Rochford council the planning officer is recommending approving the permanent training ground. Decision due on Thursday 24th Feb

 

[JAL]

It is!!!!!! Planning permission is given!!!!

So does that mean a spade in the ground? ?

 

[Jai]

I wonder if RDC approved the permanent training ground. Nothing on their social media.

 

[kaymac]

Should hopefully appear on RDC’s weekly list w/e 25th Feb.

 

[Spaceman Spiff]

It was definitely on the agenda last night and was recommended for approval as we know. No details posted yet as to the decision but hopefully this will come later today. We are item 6:

Rochford planning meeting agenda and documents 24 February 2022

 

[CanveyCastle]

Don't believe all you can read on the mainstream media though. Its all lies, the lot of it

 

[sufc4life21]

Does this now mean will see Ron, stan and maher with spades in their hands this summer or is it another false dawn?

 

[kaymac]

It was definitely on the agenda last night and was recommended for approval as we know. No details posted yet as to the decision but hopefully this will come later today. We are item 6:

I can confirm that Rochford District Council DID approve our new Training Complex on Thursday.

 

[Lincoln Shrimp]

I understand that following the completion of the legal agreement (section 106) the club must still await expiry of the Judicial Review period (statutory 6 weeks) but are not anticipating any challenges.

We are already at an advanced stage with the detailed design and then the tender (being supported and worked through by a team of 20 plus people) will follow.

 

[tommy tucker]

If so that the club has to wait 6 weeks a judicial review .That takes the date to the April that Stan said the building should commence .

 

[Cockle43]

Just to clarify, this is the notice that I've received today on the planning decision being granted and all the details of what has now got the go ahead from SBC.

I would now suggest it is pretty much back in SUFC's court from here...

It sounds like it’s all systems go, so long as no judicial review pops up during the statutory six week period ending in April. Fingers crossed!

Indeed.... Monday 4th April seems to be the day when we can hopefully finally "break ground".
