Received: 10/03/2018

Respondent: Mr Paul Halfpenny

Representation Summary:

Improved sporting facilities that centralise resources from different agencies may be an important economic benefit to the wider community. It will also improve and enhance provision of health & fitness related activities in a climate where local and national health of the population is a key priority. The potential link between clubs and the UEA will give the area the opportunity to promote the University and city as a centre of excellence. Parking problems on Colney Lane may also be alleviated at peak times such as weekends when sporting events take place.
