PLANNING GREEN LIGHT TO NEW SPORTS PITCHES WITHOUT TOILETS OR CHANGING

Another decision this week from the planners. New junior sports pitches have to be provided by the developers at Ladden Garden. But the Tory Councillors who run planning, none of whom live within 5 miles of here, have said they need not provide toilets or changing.

So the new development will three junior pitches, on land land which is currently waterlogged every winter, with hardly any parking and no toilets or changing. And no electricity or water for them to go in later. Absolutely bonkers.

Yate Town Council who have years of experience running local pitches explained the problems. But S Glos planning committee simply ignored that. Once again, it is a case of whatever the developer wants seems to be good enough.
