COUNCILS TO DECIDE: Two important meetings over the last few days made some progress on the development of our new ground at Nantporth on Holyhead Road. On Monday, 31 January, City of Bangor Council agreed the principle of allowing us a long lease on the new ground. A long lease is essential if the Club is to be allowed to make applications for grants and will secure our future at the ground. We will now have to negotiate the detail of the lease with the District Valuer. On Wednesday 2 February, Gwynedd Councillors deferred a decision on the planning application to allow full development of an all-seater facility at Nantporth, pending a site visit to Nantporth, and further examination of letters in support of, and opposing, the application. See the "Stadium News" page on this site for more background. (2 February 2005)
