RESIDENTS can find out more about the plans for the new community stadium at Myton Green which is the proposed new home for Leamington FC.
The plans, which also include the relocation of the athletics facilities from Edmondscote to the same area, are available on Warwick District Council’s website, with an online comment form open until Thursday May 28.
WDC’s resources spokesperson Coun Jonathan Chilvers said: “These large-scale projects can take time to develop as it’s important that we get them right, but I’m delighted that we’re now at the stage where we can show the community some updated visuals and plans that really bring these exciting projects to life.
“I’d encourage anyone interested in these new facilities to take a look at the plans and let us know any comments you have, so that we can ensure we are putting the community at the heart of these facilities.”
The Community Stadium plans developed by Leamington FC and WDC, would see the construction of a 4,000-capacity football stadium with a 3G artificial pitch, conference facilities, cafe and community facilities on land adjacent to Fusiliers Way.
The relocation of the athletics facilities will ensure that the many clubs and schools that train on the existing facilities are able to use a modern, fit-for-purpose facility. The proposed pavilion will also have space the local community can use. The current site of the athletics facilities will become part of a new public park.
