As l have said on the Cas forum, l live in Methley and have not heard a peep re the potential Newmarket development. Which is unusual, last year there was a concerted local area protest against a planned new development in Lower Mickeltown, which resulted (at least in some part) to planning permission being turned down!

l don’t see how the development would affect Methley, it is far enough away to not impact on traffic, noise or house price worries.

More then likely it will have been some of the anti stadium group scaremongering the locals with regards to increased HGV traffic loads. Not withstanding the permissions the wagons will face, but physically a Juggernaut would find navigating Newmarket Lane beyond the perimeter of the site pretty much impossible such it the tightness of the roads.

The fact that the wagons will only have an access from Aberford should be highlighted. There main concern was the proximity of developments to their properties and the fact that when they signed the petition for the stadium they were not made aware of the rest of the development. No doubt some residents will be mischief making and stirring up others with false scaremongering. it would be interesting to read what is written in the Methley messenger.
These groups have to be taken on board and approached, to help allay their fears before they get chance to grow and cause problems.

I work with a few people from methley and there is definitely some strength to the stories that some who have filled in pertitians on our behalf feel somewhat misled about the rest of the development.
We after all are only interested in the ground and as far as I am aware are only pertititioning for such, so I can see there point to some level.
However there is also talk of a massive jctn 32 style retail outlet and various other scare stories also being mixed in causing quite a lot of I'll feeling towards us and the development as a whole.
Scare stories can cause them as much agro as us, so they need to be careful, however we may have caused ourselves trouble by the way we have canvassed our support very publicly on our one point, without raising the rest of the development as part of that process, to remain transparent.
As for the speeking to opposing groups I have previously stated the need for dialogue with all parties with any concern. Good pr for us.

I believe YorkCourt are in constant dialogue with the residents directly affected.

SWAG’s mission is to campaign for a new stadium, which they have done. The rest of the development is not part of SWAG’s remit, although it is integral to the stadium becoming a reality. However, the SWAG petition directly quotes, ‘the Sports Facilities will form part of an overall strategy for the Newmarket site and cannot happen in isolation to the other functions proposed for the site.‘

One would take from that a development in an area close to the motorway and out of town would entail some sort of industrial units & business park.

Why is this even debated on here... the vast majority of wakey fans are blinkered to any debate and the residents are the opposite.

One inbred on here even called me scum cos I tried debating.
