Representation ID: 19755

Received: 30/01/2009

Respondent: Land Securities plc

Agent: CgMs Consulting

Representation Summary:

Box 21 Preferred Strateav for Health. Recreation and Community Facilities

Council's leisure assessment and public consultation undertaken suggests a lack of swimming pools in the District; which rises by 2026. On the other hand, there is current oversupply of indoor bowls of 0.76 rinks; however without any action, there would be a shortfall of 0.17 rinks by 2026.

Comments:
Land Securities supports the relocation of the swimming pool and bowling alley from Ravenside Retail Park to enable the centralisation of leisure facilities in a new multi-purpose leisure centre.
