New covered sports pitch at Cranford School

[dsqpr]

First pictures of the new stadium!!!....Tony's been clever here, cause it's portable, so we can set it up anywhere in w12...

That is funny Dave! And they've really thought it through because with all the hot air on this forum they know they'll have no trouble inflating it!

Dear Save Warren Farm Team Member,



The second Planning application from QPR is to be considered by Ealing’s Planning Committee next Wednesday 16 September; meeting starts at 7pm in the Council Chamber at Ealing Town Hall. Please support the Save Warren Farm team from the Public Gallery if you can.



In addition, the Committee will conduct a site visit this Saturday morning (12 September) and Warren Farm is first on the schedule at 09.15am. Please convene next to the derelict changing rooms if you can support us. The Committee will arrive by minibus.



It is essential that we have as many people as possible turn up at both the site visit on Saturday morning at 09.15am, and outside the Town Hall in advance of the Committee meeting at 6.15 onwards to show the strength of feeling about the many, many issues around this application.



From the land fill plans to raise the ground level by five metres along the Olde Hanwell side of the site, importing 180,000 cubic metres of land fill material, in 150 trucks per day (300 truck movements each day), 10 hours per day, five days per week for eight months;

to the environmental impact of this activity in terms of air quality land drainage and potential contamination of the River Brent and Grand Union Canal;

to this inappropriate and massive development in Metropolitan Open Land;

to the loss of the Site of Importance for Nature Conservation along Windmill Lane;

to the loss of two thirds of the community playing fields space to a commercial organisation focusing on a single, elite sport;

to the massive reduction in number of community pitches and space for outdoor sports;

to the location of the proposed community sports pavilion being at a distance from the community pitches and attached to the QPR indoor sports hall;

to the absence of shelters of any description near the community pitches for use by children, the disabled watching matches or participating in them, or by the batsmen form the batting team waiting to go on;

to the enclosure of the whole site and blocking off of access via established public footpaths from the five bar gate at Jubilee Meadow, and from the corner of Trumper’s Way to the main gate on Windmill Lane…



…these and many other issues are associated with this application need to be drawn to the Committee’s attention.



Please let us know if you think that you will be able to attend one or both of these activities.
