Co-op planning application for Oakfield Rec
Agents acting on behalf of the Co-op have put in a planning application for the Oakfield Recreation ground off Bilton Road.
They are proposing to redevelop the area with about 60 houses.
They propose keeping the footpaths onto the site from Charles Street and Northcote Road and the small play area by Northcote Road. Cars would enter and leave the site from Bilton Road.
The planning application can be seen on the Rugby planning portal using the planning application number R13/1528 - see http://www.planningportal.rugby.gov.uk/search.asp .
For the loophole left in the national planning policy framework which has allowed the Co-op to make a planning application see - http://rugby.lib.dm/a8WVN.
For the "yellow ribbon" protest on the recreation ground see - http://rugby.lib.dm/a4PRK .
There will be a public meeting to discuss the application at the Indian Centre in Edward Street at 7pm on 1st June 2015.
