Bumping this up seeing as the council are due to make a decision on this tomorrow.
Several objections have been made but none so serious as to prevent approval being given.

Since this prediction is coming from you I’m going to assume that the council have found some obscure law allowing them to order the demolition of the stadium by the end of the week

Did they make a decision I wonder? Not seen anything about it anywhere.

It appears as though the decision has been moved to 20th April. Quite a delay. The reason for which can only be guessed at.
It may well inhibit the club from its proposed schedule though.

Leicester City's King Power Stadium expansion decision delayed
City submitted a detailed plan of their proposed new East Stand at the end of October, but the council's initial February target decision date has been and gone

Shouldn't that read that the club has missed the deadline to update their application? I think they are delaying planning so that they don't have to start spending.

No apparently the council cancelled the planning committee meeting

I don't believe for a second that any city council in the country wouldn't be working very closely with its local football club on delivering planning. This will almost certainly be because they are rescheduling things to suit the club's needs

Looks like the club and the council are mutually not moving on it any more. Seems to be heading for the long grass.

Doesn't read like that to me. It suggests the the Council are still as incompetent as they have ever been. I should know, I used to work for the LCC property department. It was a fair few years ago now like, but they were ****ing useless back then and the folks I know who still work there dont think much has changed. They've missed 7 out of the last 8 planning committee meetings and the agendas for those things were almost always full to the brim so the backlog at the moment will be ****ing huge.

Believe it. They are a combination of completely incompetent and extremely overwhelmed since the start of the year.

Word on the street is that the loan we took out last week is secured against our PL TV income for the next three years in order to fund the beginning of the stadium development.
