Councillor Eddie Fearon approached members of the Save Radcliffe Pool group on Thursday 5th March at the RBC Council Meeting, before they were due to submit the petition on behalf of Radcliffe community.
He had been investigating the cost of building a new leisure centre, which he said some of his constituents were asking for in Radcliffe on Trent. He had been advised that a new leisure centre would cost at least £2.2m. He was very clear that he could not support a leisure centre in Radcliffe on Trent because it would compromise the viability of the other leisure centres in the borough. Any new leisure centre would take custom away from the other sites and make them less viable.
The Save Radcliffe Pool group suggested that his comments added weight to saving the current leisure facilities already in place in the village.
