Community stadium rejection would be ‘disaster for York’ (From York Press)

• "Just taken the info below from the CYC website. The C4Y polarises their objections on the basis of their own minority interest and negative spin against a new stadium, but the issue is much wider. If the planning application were to fail today there will be a massive loss to the wider community of many other valuable facilities. The NHS service based in ASDA can be enhanced by those included in the plans for the stadium.
  
  On 22 December 2010 York City Football Club, City of York Athletic Club and City of York Council signed a Memorandum of Understanding. This is a public declaration of personal commitment to the project, but also to a commitment to work together, within a spirit of trust and integrity, to a mutually beneficial conclusion.
  
  Potential New Project Partners
  
  As the project continues and develops the council is working very closely with health and education providers to potentially incorporate services into the stadium development. These include:
  •
  York Teaching Hospital NHS Foundation Trust
  
  •
  York St John University
  
  •
  Independent Living Demonstration and Assessment Centre
  
  •
  Explore Learning Centre
  
  The application has to be approved to the benefit of ALL York's residents."
