Update from the fans committee meeting, Link also attached to all notes :
Stadium Development: • S106 terms will soon be agreed and ratified by the Club and council. Once the S106 is signed, the Club will have outline planning permission approved to commence with the project within a five year timeframe. • The Club is still committed to the development, but timing will be crucial. Additional land (EON) was acquired post planning application, which now needs to be integrated in the plan. Divisional status is not an exclusive consideration, but Premier League status is evidently healthier for the business model. • Member raised a question that should the Club gain promotion to the PL and building works start, but then suffer another relegation, what would happen to the progression of the development? The Club confirmed that the commencement of development work would be underpinned by a business plan that would take risk factors into consideration, making it unlikely that development would be affected by circumstances changing mid-project. • Members asked if an update on development status could be shared on the Club’s communication channels – even if this is minimal. AH to look into. • Member raised the question on the use of the proposed Arena – the Club can only confirm an Arena is part of the current masterplan but do not have any further detail to share at this moment. • DSA Member raised the issue of being told that any alterations to the current stadium are being put back until the stadium development – the Club confirmed that it would continue to ensure compliance with all accessibility regulations in the meantime.
