Keetch unhappy with proposals
Paul Keetch, MP for Hereford, has written to the Hereford Times about the Edgar Street Grid plans. In his letter he questions whether a huge supermarket on the site might lower the amount of funding that can be obtained from Advantage West Midlands.
"The development should not seek to try and establish a new shopping centre for Hereford," writes Keetch. "I believe that it should contain civic,sporting and cultural facilities that would complement, not complete with, the city's existing facilities."
The Herefordshire full council passed the proposals last week although the fate of the cattle market is not yet known.
It appears that the politicians are beginning to fall out about the plans for the area. The question of funding and a supermarket on the site could be discussed for months if not years. The longer the plans are held up simply makes the future of Hereford United less certain.
Meanwhile, it has been confirmed that there will be a minutes silence before Saturday's game for Dolly Davies, the well-known Bulls supporter who died recently.
Graham Turner commented: "She was a fantastic supporter and it is a sad loss to the club."
