The scheme 10 outdoor pitches, an indoor pitch and a training building
Councillors have backed plans for a new elite training ground to be built by Blackpool Football Club. Members of Blackpool Council’s planning committee supported a recommendation to approve the application for new facilities on land accessed from Steeton Road, part of the Grange Park housing estate.
Planning committee member Coun Fred Jackson said after the meeting: “There were some concerns among members of the committee about parking, but we felt if the conditions proposed were met then the recommendation should be supported."No other speakers were in attendance at the meeting held at the Town Hall. The decision follows approval of the same application by Wyre Council’s planning committee in April this year. The bulk of the site falls into Wyre’s planning jurisdiction.
The scheme includes ten outdoor pitches, an indoor pitch and a two-storey training building for use only by Blackpool FC’s first team and academy teams, and the facilities would not be open to the public. Work to start clearing buildings on Henry Street to eventually make way for the new East Stand is expected to start soon, with an application having been lodged by the council this month seeking permission for the first demolition work.
