Echo News Southend United smaller Fossetts Farm stadium plans held up (Feb 23)

Isn't only the main stand that's altered under the revised planning? Phase 1, the other 3 stands unchanged?
 
So he could have pressed ahead with the original 21000 seat stadium, but instead has tried to reduced it to build more houses which I assume would earn him more money. How ironic it would be if his own greed for more cash was his final undoing.
 
Originally permission was passed for the stadium and (i believe) 7 retail units but "it" then decided that he wanted more units, so had to resubmit the plans, which held it up

But they've approved the original plans. It's clearly down to Ron to provide details on changes. You can't get approval for anything these days without detailed plans. It would be the same for anyone, not just the football club.

We have submitted detailed plans for the revisions - theres 14 pages with 10 documents on each page on the council website!

Having been through the planning process before on a residential build, I'd suggest it's not the same for everyone. Really depends on who you know as to how fast and how flexible the council can be.

I think this has even been classed as a delegated decision, councillors probably won't even vote on it!

The council hasn't disclosed what further info they require - that'd be interesting to know.
