There's [url=http://democracy.leeds.gov.uk/Published/C00000125/M00004395/AI00025790/1000225OUTNewmarketLaneWakefield.pdf[uthis[/u[/url report also

The report contained in the link from Nev0807 is slightly concerning as this appears to give the impression that Leeds City Council will oppose the development.



The most concerning thing is that they seem to base their decision on a number of the inaccuracies that the NIMBY's have been peddling about.



Lets hope their view does not have too much bearing on matters

I wouldnt put it past Leeds Council to oppose the site then try to save the jobs by offering to host the distribution somewhere in Leeds.

they should flatten Leeds and make that a green belt

Interesting that the Leeds (spit) planning office seem to be confused about brown field and greenbelt?

Also they admit they were planning to develop their side 18 years ago, so maybe they're worried that if the development goes ahead the opportunities to develop on their side will be reduced.

It is also clear that Leeds (spit) have been consulted from the start.

Taking out the erroneous stuff that comes from the NIMBYs (double spit), it seems the basis is no more than the greenbelt objection which has always been there. Although an objection from Leeds could carry more weight to it getting an inquiry.

THE SITE ISN'T GREEN BELT!!



For anyone that's worried about this go away and research the local development framework!- which was put into place in April 2009. There has been a desire to develop this piece of land since before we (WT) were involved!

-There is nothing to worry about!!!

Its not so much greenbelt land when there gypsys on it and used for tipping know 1 complains about that. Set of losers Leeds councillers bore off and concentrate on upgrading Armley mind there own business all the postcodes are Wakefield ones down there in my book its Wakefield !.

Very true. Morley leisure centre was knocked down and rebuilt within a couple of years. Sun Lane was knocked down an age ago and I think I heard they are submitting plans for a new swimming pool on Sun Lane! All praise WMDC...

Dont think its Leeds council thats opposing it its just some Councilors having to reprisent there constituants. The bad thing for Wakey is this could take it to central goverment for planning and that process could hold you up. Hope it doesnt happen that way as the district deserves all the facilities we can get to help all the talent coming throu our clubs .



Fingers crossed for you guys

Binks

Only saying this on principal...



Sod off Leeds Council, a new stadium in Wakefield is none of your business!

The city in Leeds is fine but they should worry about improving the rest of the SLUM thats is Leeds and "keep it out"

Nowt wrong with Leeds that 12 mile wide bulldozer couldn't put right
