581 objections. 253 Objections from outside Gtr Manchester. Shocking!

What the f*** has it got to do with 262 properties outside of Gtr Manchester. I think a few more arenas in other cities close to Manchester are also worried.

Objections

581 objections were received as a result of the first notification. 14 were from the 7652 properties which were notified. 52 were from other Manchester wards, 253 from other Greater Manchester Authorities and 262 from properties outside of Greater Manchester.

Supports

44 Supports were received from businesses to the first notification. 2 were from business within the 7652 properties notified. 20 were from businesses within other Manchester wards, 5 from within other Greater Manchester Authorities and 17 from outside of Greater Manchester

Recommendation

Article 35 Declaration

Minded to Approve subject to the signing of a section 106 agreement with regards to the review and expansion of the existing Residents Parking Zone (RPZ), an operational event management strategy, walking route improvement works, local labour commitments and waste management arrangements

Get the Eastlands Arena built!

Is this an approval then?
 
Does the club or CFG/ADUG have any connection to this in terms of input & profit once it’s up & running?

Just recommended to approve by the planning officers/s. The Councillors at the next planning and highways meeting will either approve or refuse it. The could also defer a decision. Ask for more information. A site visit. Etc.

TBH, it should sail through, even with the ludicrous amount of objections. Most are solely about self-interest. Possible loss of revenue, etc. As for the all the objections from outside Gtr Manchester, I'm staggered. No doubt some of them are from arena operators in other cities close to Gtr Manchester.

City may not be directly involved with the arena proposal, but they own the land, and are very close to MCC. All parties, including Oak View Group, want the arena built.

Hopefully the arena will be approved, and the construction company can be onsite ASAP.

Looking forward to taking pictures of the construction. Especially from the nearby pedestrian bridge.

Wouldn’t be surprised if the Echo Arena put in an objection.
