Dear all,
In response to the Trinity application and community access agreement I have the following supportive comments, if your agreeable I will issue these to the planning email address too:
The community access agreement has been developed over a number of months, and the club has engaged the Council’s relevant officer’s in the process.
The community access agreement clearly defines a baseline, and ambition to increase the hours of usage on the site from a range of ‘professional’ club teams, and wider community and foundation users. This is then articulated into a value back to the community which is a positive figure.
The hours of usage have then be fleshed out, with a clear appendix of the breadth of teams and users, allowing both unique users per year and the total touch points to be estimated appropriately, and transparently.
The ambitions, and approach to usage appear in keeping with the nature and type of the facilities, and the club has engaged the relevant governing body and partners in discussions to develop the usage approach. This should mean the targets are ambitious but not too ambitious or unaffordable.
The approach to pricing policy, and wider equalities strands looks positive to ensure that the offer welcomes and supports participants and users of all age, gender, faith and no faith, disability and neuro disability.
The approach with a review committee, in which the WMDC is represented is supported and a positive approach to supporting the investment to make a difference to the community of Wakefield District.
Physical activity levels in the district remain low and any developments which aim to improve access and increase physical activity are supported by the Council.
This development will support the overall ambitions of the district playing pitch strategy and health and wellbeing strategy.
Thanks J
