TRAFFORD MBC PLANNING APPLICATION - JUBILEE CENTRE - CAR PARKS

Thank you to all those members who attended the Public Meeting in relation to this Planning Application and those who have responded in letters of objection to these plans.

 If you are yet to do so, you have until 9th September 2015 to register your support or objection to close the St.Mary’s car park.

Unless it is withdrawn, the Planning Application will be heard by the Trafford MBC Planning Committee at 6:30pm Thursday 10th September at Trafford Town Hall, Stretford.


At the Public Meeting and within the case papers published the day before, it is evident that:

1.             The decision to sell off this car park to facilitate a new community centre was taken by the Trafford MBC Executive in September 2013; (Planning Officer's report to the Planning Committee)
2.       There
is likely to be a further application to satisfy the concerns raised. (Michael Hyman, Trafford MBC Councillor)


Reading between the lines, it is possible that this current application, if approved, will be treated as an “Outline Planning Permission” with possible or probable likely change to the definitive plans once the land is sold as such to a developer.
