The first NEUTRAL comment on the BCC portal was added on the 12th May 2024. I expect the routine suggestions included will all be correctly actioned in the process of installing the screen. Commenter Type: Neighbour Stance: Customer made comments neither objecting to or supporting the Planning Application Comment Reasons: Comment: The size of the LED screen appears to be approximately 12 metres wide by 4 metres high, and the framework to support such a large screen, plus a camera position, will have to be of a suitable size to take the anticipated load on the platform, bearing in mind the framework will also be straddling the newly installed South-West stand. Further, the existing stand will require modification to allow for what appears to be a flat platform forming a new roof over the seating area. An access route to the new platform does not appear to have been detailed in the drawings provided, but will undoubtedly add to the construction work required in what is a constrained corner of the stadium site. Whilst I have no concerns which would warrant an objection there is still the issue of work being carried out in a confined area close to a number of residences on Strathmore Road. Unfortunately, lack of consideration of near resident's amenity during recent periods of development at the stadium has not been as it should be. I therefore suggest a Construction Management Plan (CMP) should be required for the project, to be approved in writing by the Local Planning Authority. The CMP should provide: - emergency contact number; - Start and finish times of construction works/operations; - Plant to be used, with restrictions (times, etc) on the use of potentially noisy equipment; - Times and Routes for delivery of plant/materials to site; - Method of preventing mud being carried onto the highway should such measures be necessary; - Arrangements to receive abnormal loads or unusually large vehicles, if necessary; - Methods of communicating the Construction Management Plan to staff, visitors and neighbouring residents and businesses. - Locations for loading/unloading and storage of plant, waste and construction materials; - Any necessary temporary traffic management measures if necessary; and - Any match day safety measures to be put in place around the construction site/stored materials/etc. if the works are carried out during the football season or when events are taking place. Thank you (Highlighting is by the forum poster and not by the portal poster.)Is that a standard reply to all planning applications as what mud can be created on the highway by sticking a TV screen on the roof of a stand? Likewise what traffic is going to be affected to warrant temporary traffic management. I guess the writer does seem to have a good grasp of the English Language unlike the Support letters, which mostly seems to be written by people incapable of even stringing a sentence together!

If that's the case then it's hard to believe we're seeking pp for something but haven't confirmed how high it'll be. As I assume that's the first question the householders behind will want to know? The documents show the size and location relative to the stand(s) and the houses - so everyone can clearly see how big it will be relative to the existing structures... [edit] in the same way that if I told you someone was building a 4-storey block of flats, the exact height is not important - how it will end up relative to everything else alread nearby is the key factor The dimensions are shown on the TV document, although 920 x 920 doesn't seem to be correct as the plans show a rectangle not a square shaped TV.

What's 920? Feet? Inches? Millimetres?

Filed in the frivolous complaints dept 🗑️🙄 Good point though regarding the trees? You don't plant trees at this time of the year, October/November.

Tree planting season runs between November and March" So they won't be planted now, they'll have to wait until the Autumn.

The query by the "objector" was why haven't they been planted not when will they be planted?

Apart from the aforementioned planting season…What trees to be planted? I’ve just checked the permission granted and there isn’t any stipulation to plant trees just a vague mention of it in the tree protection plan condition. The tree officer comment mentions how many trees could be planted or the financial contribution the club could make to the fund so these trees could be planted offsite - wouldn’t surprise me if that’s the route they would take. Apart from that, all other ecological issues were conditioned to be resolved within 6 months of the permission being granted and if the club are going to plant trees, hedges and other soft landscaping (as recommended in report) it will be outlined at this point and then done at a suitable point once signed off.

You assume wrong - my first sentence literally mentions this condition. I see no mention whatsoever of tree replacement being conditioned, the tree officer hasn’t mandated anything and the discharge application just covers off tree protection. So unless it comes up as mitigation for the ecology or BNG conditions why should the club plant trees for neighbours who will complain if someone farts and it wafts in their general direction?

We need to fit Topper with a dimmer switch. Why the need to pull everyone up even if it means he contradicts his own opinions. Tiresome.

I've nothing further to add to my last post, the tree aspect seems to have been dealt with to good affect by the club.

Just shy of 1m square, it doesn't take an engineer to work out this is information about one of the many panels that will make up the whole screen.... ....as others are starting to call out, it's obvious to anyone who has taken the time and trouble to find and read this document exactly what it is referring to (960mm x 960mm - there is even a photo in the document with a hand to provide scale), so why do you keep jumping to stupid conclusions?
