We have formed a new group called 'Residents FOR Newmarket'. This is a growing group of local residents who SUPPORT the proposed Newmarket development and primarily not just because it provides Wakefield Trinity with a new stadium, but because of the large number of jobs that the site will provide and the community sports and educational facilities that form part of, and will be commercial supported and funded by the wider development.

One of our first initiatives has been to create a 'Statement of Support' that we are asking people to consider signing and returning to us, so we can pass these on to the planning inspectorate, on-mass, to clearly show that a small group of objectors do not speak on behalf of ALL local residents as they are trying to claim! In fact we feel and hope to demonstrate that the support for the development, both within the local area and the district as a whole, is far greater than than the primarily NIMBY led objections.

We feel we need to tell people some of the REAL FACTS about the development, not half-truths and in some cases lies that this small group of objectors have spread to solicit wider support to their own cause, stopping this development just because they do not want it near them! We also want people to understand what the local area and district could lose out if this application fails! We want people to be aware that the Newmarket Colliery site, that forms 65% of the distribution and storage units development, looks highly likely to be re-designated as an employment zone (for distribution & storage units) by the latest March 2012 anyway! This means that it is highly likely units will be built on some of the site within the very near future (and possibly even more units longer term) regardless of this application and will probably mean no community sport facilities and no stadium! The residents will probably be worse off as well, as a smaller initial development likely to be unable to fund a new road and new signal junction on Aberford Road via section 106 agreements, like this development can.

While this initiative has been devised by 'Residents FOR Newmarket' and we are targeting local residents within a three mile radius of the site, it is one we are asking all people within the wider Wakefield District and South Leeds area to participate in and complete Statements of Support if they support the development. The Statement is clear and self explanatory so they and the planning inspectorate knows what they are supporting.

As such please feel free to download the following 'Did You Know' document and complete a 'Statement of Support' and return it to us to pass on, on your behalf. The reason we are asking people to return them to us, rather than post them on direct, is simply so we can collate them and in particular count the number of 'local' replies. We also want you to freely distribute these documents and encourage anyone who supports the development to complete one and remember (as the objectors have been keen to state) everyone in your house can complete one, including Children!

We are wanting to send these to planning inspectorate as soon as we can, so we have tight deadline of Wednesday 19th January for completed forms.

We are currently setting up 'collection points' for completed forms and currently we have the following places, where completed forms can be left (I will add new venues here as we know them).

Global Hour Pharmacy, Leeds Road, Outwood.
Wildcats Belle Vue Club Shop
Wildcats City Centre Store
WAKEFIELD BATHROOMS (1 QUEEN STREET, OSSETT, WF5 8AW)
KEV'S Chip Shop, Lake Lock Road, Stanley (next to the Wheatsheaf pub)

If you can arrange any other 'collection points' please let me know below and we will add them to the list above.

Finally 'Residents FOR Newmarket' will be holding a public meeting at Stanley Rangers on Tuesday 11th January for local residents, please see this thread rlhttp://forums.rlfans.com/viewtopic.php?f for more details.
