Southend Central Area Action Plan (SCAAP) Preferred Approach 2015

Representation ID: 2270

Received: 15/02/2016

Respondent: Southend BID

Representation Summary:

Another major issue for the BID is the opportunity site (OS13) re-development of Roots Hall, and Roots Hall Stadium. There is extreme concern that the redevelopment of these sites is predicated on Southend Football Club moving out to Fossetts Farm and the supposed enabling development to allow this to happen, which consists of a large quantum of A1 retail units. As highlighted earlier in this representation the retail proposals at Fossetts Farm would be fatal to Southend's retail offer in the High Street and the aspirations for a vast improvement to the retail provision in the SCAAP area.
