Heaton Park Planning Application – Withdrawn from December Meeting!

by timpickstone on 11 December, 2009

KEEP FIGHTING FOR OUR HERITAGE
SAY NO TO FORTRESS FOOTBALL
SAY YES TO JUMPERS FOR GOAL POSTS

For the second time in three months Goals Soccer Centres have been
forced to withdraw their planning application to build a sports centre in
Heaton Park. When will they get the message that a huge number of people
do not want their park fenced in and covered with concrete and astroturf.
As a result the Planning Committee Meeting to be held at Manchester
Town Hall on the 17th December 2009 has been cancelled.

Goals need to realise we are against their plans to build a sports complex in
the park. We say no to traffic congestion, parking chaos, noise and light
pollution, having 8 acres of our beautiful park covered in concrete and
astroturf, protected species such as bats threatened.

Thank you for your continued support.
