Luton Outlaws - Independent Message Board for Luton Town FC

In the drone footage by the 'Wandering Northerner' bloke, he mentions drainage and pipes that have been lying around the PC site for months a lot.

I found as letter from the 'Local Flood Authority' in the planning portal documents relating to PC.

It has has this to say about drainage etc:

"No drainage works shall take place until a detailed construction phase surface water
management plan for the site has been submitted in writing to the Local Planning
Authority for approval. The scheme shall subsequently be carried out only in strict
accordance with the approved details.
In relation to Condition 60, the construction drawings of the surface water drainage
network for the stadium, associated sustainable drainage components, flow control
mechanisms and outfall details are missing from the submission and therefore we are
unable to recommend the discharge of the condition at this time. The only construction
drawings available are of the proposed foul system. Once the surface water drainage
construction drawings for the Stadium have been submitted we would be happy to review
and provide further comment.
In relation to condition 63 and 64 these conditions currently cover the entire application
boundary, The current details submitted only cover the stadium and therefore further
details are required in relation to the proposal for the remainder of the site. In relation to
the Stadium further details are required regarding the construction of the outfalls to the
River Lea and the installation of the Hydrobrakes. Details are required on the timing of
these installations in relation to the site construction, how discharge rates are to be
managed throughout the construction to ensure rates are not increased from existing. In
addition a phasing plan including location of mitigation measures (i.e. straw bales) and
the temporary features should be included for each step of the construction phase."


This is dated 28th May, so quite recent.

So there seems to be a delay here until extra details have been provided regarding drainage for the whole site instead of just the stadium itself.

Anyone got any straw bales going spare?









Yes I am bored.
