And a public tantrum

[Returnofrros]

We now have Nelms side of this saga in letter published on DFC website.

I think we will now get the other side of the saga.

At least it's informative.....whether true or not that's for everybody to make their own mind up.

But this is the first time they are alledging council bias and incompetence.......is that the way to go?........only if they have higher powers on side.......otherwise this will end in gnashing of teeth and tears.

Tannadice anyone?

I see that Nelms is still persisting with Emelda MacLean of About Planning Limited who was present at the second pre application meeting in the Landmark Hotel on 27th September 2022.
I was not impressed with her knowledge about the new stadium development site at the former NCR Camperdown playing fields.
My wife and I asked Emelda MacLean two questions about the site which she could not answer.
Nelms states in his statement that they (Dark Blue Property Holdings Limited) looked at the site where the Eden Project is to be situated but rejected it due to transport issues.
The council also told them about the site at Camperdown.
The question I would like John Nelms to answer.
Did he (Nelms) tell Dundee City Council that Dark Blue Property Holdings Limited (DBPHL) were wanting to build a new sports centre similar to the aborted one at Caird Park on the site at Camperdown or the former gas works in Dock Street.
Alternatively did John Nelms tell Dundee City Council that DBPHL were planning to build a 15,000eater new football stadium, crematorium, hotel, shops and luxury housing on the site at Camperdown or the site of the former gas works in Dock Street
I am assuming that the Dundee City Council officials in June 2016 thought that DBPHL were only planning to build a new large sports centre at the site of the old gas works in Dock Street or at the former NCR Camperdown playing fields otherwise the Dundee City Council officials would have never suggested these sites.

For the attention of the posters on TDB who are complaining about Transport Scotland not objecting to the Eden Project being built on the site of the former gas works in Dock Street, Dundee despite the likely transport problems.
Transport Scotland are only responsible for the Trunk Road network throughout Scotland with Dock Street, Dundee not being situated on the trunk road network throughout Scotland.
If Nelms had submitted the Dark Blue Property Holdings Limited planning application for a new football stadium on the site of the former gas works in Dock Street, Dundee Transport Scotland would not have been interested in the planning application.
The Dundee City Council planning officers and committee members would have had to bite on the bullet and make their own decision.

Sorry Islay, don't understand the point you are trying to make. What is the difference between a large sports centre and a football stadium? Surely the large sports centre at Caird Park was needing access from a trunk road, so what's the reason why the stadium can't be built using an access road of a different section of the same trunk road.

Transport Scotland have offered 2 solutions to the slip road issue , both rejected by Nelms , probably due to the cost , but surely he must let the fans know why
