Plan of action !

[Guest]

This is the e-mailed letter I have received today from Slough Council. As expected, very non-commital as gets us no further until June 16.

Dear Supporter,

 

Re: Slough Town Football Club

 

Thank you for your recent letter/e-mail to Councillor Anderson, in support of Slough Town Football Club and the need for a ground in Slough to be found.

 

As you will be aware, there is a great deal of pressure on land in Slough and many restrictions, such as ‘Green Belt’ issues on the future use.

 

In addition, there are many requests for use of any land that does become available. These requests range from housing, a Faith School and of course Slough Town Football Club.

 

At present Council officers are looking at options to see if there is a way forward that can satisfy all requirements. However this may not be possible and in the end a decision will need to be taken that offers ‘Best Value’ for the Town.

 

We are not at this point yet, and we are still trying to see if an agreement can be reached with the current owners of the stadium as well as looking at plans to maximise use of the land adjacent to the stadium.

 

Councillors will be considering all the issues relating to the piece of land adjacent to the current stadium during June and I will ensure the views of supporters of Slough Town Football Club are made clear at these meetings.

 

Yours sincerely,

 

 

 

 

Jon Davies
