Success at last!
Planning permission for Welney's new Community Hall/Pavilion was finally granted on 19th May 2011, fifteen months after the application
was first lodged, and almost 5 years since the Parish Council announced their plans back in June 2006.
Permission is subject to the following conditions:
- building work to be started within 3 years of date permission granted
- sewerage & drainage plans to be submitted and approved
- Hurn Drove to be widened/resurfaced for 10m from March Rd & slope reduced
- noise reduction scheme to protect local residents to be submitted and approved
- car park to be surfaced and drained.
The full details can be seen in the Borough Council's decision notice, link at bottom of
page.
The application did not include plans for a childrens play area.
Permission for that will need to be applied for later and an additional fee
payable.

The next stages - drawing up building plans, tendering for prices, raising the necessary funds estimated by some to be in excess of £250,000 -
and beginning the works, will all need to be dealt with more urgency than the planning process because of the conditions stipulated.
