WQ.143/2021
WRITTEN QUESTION TO THE
MINISTER FOR ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT, TOURISM, SPORT AND CULTURE BY DEPUTY R.J. WARD OF ST. HELIER
QUESTION SUBMITTED ON TUESDAY 6th APRIL 2021
ANSWER TO BE TABLED ON TUESDAY 13th APRIL 2021
Question
"Will the Minister advise what consultation will be undertaken with local residents before any redevelopment of Springfield Stadium?"
Answer
Residents can currently participate in the formal consultation that is now under way on sports facilities that will be provided in future through the Inspiring Active Places strategy. This can be found at www.inspringactiveplaces.je. The consultation runs until 30th April 2021. Residents can also submit comments through the planning process.
The project at Springfield Stadium to create an Active Gym and Fitness Studios in the current Sports Hall consists of internal works and will not impact externally on the current building. A planning application will be submitted to extend the parking by 37 parking bays. The design for this ensures the existing trees remain in place and are protected. The play area will be moved to the south side of the park near to the five- aside area to accommodate the additional parking.
There are no plans for other consultation specifically with residents but the Project Director would be happy to meet with any neighbours to discuss the plan in detail and can be contacted by emailing inspiringactiveplaces@gov.je.
