K*ttering FC
Re: K*ttering FC
That's a real shame. Unfortunately it's not just K*ttering Council, you hear it so often from clubs especially in the south-east. That's why so many clubs in the Combined Counties and Hellenic Leagues do not have floodlights, impossible to get planning permission. They claim however, that their councils can't do enough to help "posher" sports such as tennis.

Was this a formal planning application as there is no listing on the KBC Planning web-site?Red Kite wrote: All I can say at the moment is, it is not all over, we will not go without a fight.
Re: K*ttering FC
It was a pre-planning application enquiry, which was received by the council's Development Officer on 26:11:12. If we go ahead and submit a formal Planning Application, answering the multitude of obstacles placed in front of us, then I would think that will be available to view on their Planning web-site.Trek wrote:Was this a formal planning application as there is no listing on the KBC Planning web-site?Red Kite wrote: All I can say at the moment is, it is not all over, we will not go without a fight.
Obviously we are disappointed at the initial response but it didn't surprise me to be honest. I don't want to say too much incase anything jeopardise's any future correspondence with any of the officials involved.
Hope that helps for the time being. Such fun :roll:

Re: K*ttering FC
At least you know the planning officer's concerns about your proposals and from reading Poppynet floodlighting appears to be an issue although this should not be insurmountable and forewarned is forearmed as they say. What threw me is an 'appeal' was mentioned. Obviously this does not apply until such time as a formal application is refused.Red Kite wrote: Hope that helps for the time being.
Best of luck with your application.

Having re-read the letter once again (I am a glutton for punishment), the final sentence states...'I hope you find the information above helpful, however if you have any queries please contact me'.Trek wrote:At least you know the planning officer's concerns about your proposals and from reading Poppynet floodlighting appears to be an issue although this should not be insurmountable and forewarned is forearmed as they say.

As you quite rightly say, the word 'appeal' at this stage is in the wrong context, but on the right lines.
Once again thanks for all of your best wishes.

It looks like Luton Town Council has been rather too generous with their arrangement with their local team - http://www.lutontoday.co.uk/news/local/ ... -1-4705915
