I hope Captain Tom's Spa doesn't set a precedent. ...completely irrelevant to our scenario, our planning application matches what is being built....

One is a construction of a place to help you relax, the other is a theatre of some of the most hideous things a human can clap eyes on.

Can I gently remind people to write to the council before next weeks meeting. Let's not make the assumption it's all tied up to pass The objectors could target the committee with hundreds of NO comments.
In defence of the councillors they need to listen to all opinions. The objectors could easy 'throw the kitchen sink' and inundated the committee.
Please use the link on this thread Gasheads for one last push . Once it been voted in favour . Then legally and professionally its been approved and we can start using the seats .
Please sign SUPPORT !

The current licensed capacity of the Mem is 9,347 and this will rise to 12,534 when the stand is complete. According to the report.
Imagine a bouncing Mem with 12,000+ supporters in the second half of this season if we can find a manager who can get us fighting for the playoffs.

Grinning gleefully at the "loss of light" reports all come back as "there's no noticeable reduction in light, ~1% imperceptible change"

The best pic Bristol Live has is from behind the gate at the other end. How lazy are they, crap journalism.

Good news but it’s still not over yet.
It’s not done until it gets the safety sign off.

Good news but it’s still not over yet. It’s not done until it gets the safety sign off. 99% certain to get a safety certificate if we get pp, the committee agreeing with the report and granting pp is now the crucial decision, but It's all sounding very promising.

Some seats have been put in the SW and corner of south stand Any photo? The story says we could have fans in the stand as early as 9th Dec! Need it fully open for Boxing Day if possible. The Pompey fans will be banging the hell out of the back panelling!

A massive step forward but not quite at the end of the road yet?
*** What is contained in the report to B.C.C. Development Control Committee A for their meeting on Wednesday 15th November 2023? ***
APPLICATION NO: 23/03826/F Full Planning
DETERMINATION DEADLINE: 5 January 2024
Replacement of the current South and South West Stands with a new improved facility to increase the number of seats within the Memorial Stadium, and new toilet facilities and concession stalls.
RECOMMENDATION: Subject to Tree Replacement or Contributions: Approve with Conditions
KEY ISSUES
A. IS THE PROPOSED DEVELOPMENT ACCEPTABLE IN PRINCIPLE?
B. IS THE DESIGN OF THE PROPOSED DEVELOPMENT ACCEPTABLE?
C. WOULD THE PROPOSAL HARM THE RESIDENTIAL AMENITY OF NEIGHBOURING OCCUPIERS?
D. WOULD THE PROPOSED DEVELOPMENT SATISFACTORILY ADDRESS TRANSPORT AND MOVEMENT ISSUES?
CONCLUSION
The partial redevelopment of the Memorial Ground provides an opportunity to retain and improve on the services provided to better serve the local community.
The new stand results in an improved design, with enhanced accessibility and spectator experience, which in turn could boost the local economy, helping to retain both employment in the area and at the Stadium.
The facilities will be improved and the new stand will provide better provision for disabled spectators.
The proposed design is considered in keeping with the existing stadium and not detrimental to wider area.
The proposal meets sustainability targets.
There will be minor impacts from noise to some local residents, but the noise impact will be reduced for closer local residents.
There may some minor impact to residential amenity but not to the extent that would be detrimental to living conditions.
The highway situated should mitigate some existing issues with improved Travel Plans and TRO's.
The proposed positive aspects of the proposal far outweigh any negatives.
Therefore, on balance, officers recommend approval subject addressing the Tree replacement/contributions.

So concession stalls are mentioned as part of the approval.
Will it have a concourse of sorts with toilets, food and maybe even a bar?

Some seats have been put in the SW and corner of south stand Without going through 290 pages, & this may've already been covered, but Are any of the new seats "safe standing" ?

Most important question, what colour are they? All white in the photo, assume alternate blocks in blue maybe ? Have a feeling that’s just the metal flooring on which the seats will go on top of.
