1) RODWAY ROAD COMMUNITY CENTRE - POSSIBLE REBUILD PUT ON HOLD UNTIL JULY 2011:

If the community Centre is rebuilt, then the replacement building must be better and must include a sprung dance floor of the same area as the original. Price estimates would likely be in the range between 4.5 – 9 million pounds

The Town Council could borrow half a million pounds only

... leaving the remaining 4 - 9 million to be picked up by Bovis and South Glos Council possibly using the Central Govt incentive, (announced on 10/8/10) to grant the equivalent of six years of Couucil Tax money for every new dwelling built.

ie South glos Council might expect to receive £8,000, 000 per thousand new homes built.

No decision will be taken until July 2011 concerning any rebuild. This will depend on whether suffficient funds become available

2) NEW COMMUNITY CAFE AND ACTIVITY SPACE FOR NORTH PATCHWAY

The Coniston Road Community centre is RIGHT NOW undergoing a major building extension programme, (cost £1,010,000 one million ten thousand pounds).

Work started on 17th May 2010 and will include a new community cafe, two new community rooms and office space providing support to the local community
