Club pitches latest redevelopment designs to cricket board

REPRESENTATIVES from the England and Wales Cricket Board visited Bristol this week to see revised plans to redevelop the county cricket ground in Ashley Down.

The board decides which cricket clubs are allowed to host international matches.

The visit follows Gloucestershire County Cricket Club's submission of new plans to lower a controversial proposed apartment block.

The club says it needs to build 147 apartments to fund a makeover of the ground in Nevil Road to improve its chances of holding international matches.

The club currently holds a conditional Category B status but needs to improve its facilities in order to retain this standard.

As part of normal procedure, the ECB visits clubs looking to achieve an upgrade in status to learn of the progress of planning applications and collect feedback from the local community.

This included a meeting with council deputy leader Simon Cook.

Tom Richardson, the club's chief executive, said: "It is great to have the ECB in Bristol to discuss how we are getting on and what the new plans look like, as well as updating them on our pre-application consultation and the feedback we have received.

"We have, of course, been in close contact with the ECB throughout all of our activities and we will continue to keep them up to date on proceedings as we move forwards."

Gordon Hollins, from the ECB, said: "It is a major part of our work to ensure that we keep up to speed with the clubs that are pursuing redevelopment plans and are interested to discuss them with the key stakeholders involved in this process.

"Building on the success of the county clubs is central to creating the right infrastructure for the sport to grow and develop and our job is to help oversee this process in line with the overall national picture."

Mr Cook said: "The cricket club plays a very important role in the city and I am very keen to see international cricket remain at Nevil Road.

"This will be a good opportunity to stress our support for the club's ambitions to the ECB, although the specific issue of the future planning application is of course a matter for the independent planning committee to decide."

The revised plans remove one storey from the block, so it is six storeys high instead of seven. To accommodate 12 flats, the block would be extended towards Kennington Avenue.

Councillors are expected to decide on the revised planning application in May.

Bristol 'needs a mayor' to be one of Britain's premier cities, says PM

BRISTOL will get a seat at the top table of England's leading cities – but only if residents vote for a mayor, the Prime Minister has said.

David Cameron announced that he would chair the new "Cabinet of Mayors", which would meet at least every six months to swap ideas and lobby ministers for extra powers.

The intervention was an attempt to persuade voters in Bristol and nine other cities to choose an elected mayor when they go to the polls on May 3.

Senior Conservatives believe Bristol and Birmingham represent their best chances of a Yes vote, with stronger opposition in northern cities like Manchester and Newcastle.

Mr Cameron was speaking at Downing Street yesterday after summoning delegations from the 'core cities' to press the case for a Yes vote and encourage more candidates to come forward.

He said: "I want to establish a cabinet of mayors and I would chair its first meeting. I want, when we have a good number of mayors around the country, to bring them together so we can swap ideas and experience and initiatives.

"We can really make sure that central government is not just helping to deliver these referendums, but is also going to deliver extra powers, extra resources to those cities and to those mayors, so they can get even more things done."

Calling for Yes votes, Mr Cameron said mayors would "change the political culture of Britain, with more great leaders in our cities, more economic dynamism".

He was joined in making the case by Lord Heseltine, a long-standing advocate of elected mayors, who urged the audience to "put your head above the parapet" and stand for office. He also said Bristol was "exactly the sort of city" that would suit an elected mayor.

London Mayor Boris Johnson described how he made the case for the capital to drum up foreign investment. Labour and Lib Dem politicians also spoke in favour.

Critics have questioned the need for the change and have pointed out that the public is being asked to "vote blind", with extra powers on offer to mayors only to be decided after the referendums.

There were around 14 delegates from Bristol, including city MPs Stephen Williams and Charlotte Leslie, who both back the case for a mayor. City council leaders, who have opposed the switch, were not represented at Number 10. Speaking afterwards, the rest of the Bristol contingent declared themselves fully behind the move to an elected mayor but few would consider standing for the post.

Andrew Kelly, of the Bristol Cultural Development Partnership, has been organising debates to raise awareness of the referendum and said he personally favoured a mayor.

Watershed boss Dick Penny said he had no plans to run but added that he had recently been convinced of the case for a mayor because the government would only be prepared to strike deals for new powers with cities that had one in place.

Marti Burgess, who runs the Lakota nightclub in Stokes Croft, is part of the city's Yes campaign but will not be putting herself forward.

She said: "A mayor would be a point of contact for all the disparate communities."

Architect George Ferguson said he would consider running as an independent candidate, saying "a staggering number of people" had told him to put himself forward.

Peter Abraham, leader of the Tory group on the council, would also not rule himself out of running for the Conservative ticket, but insisted all his efforts were focused on securing a Yes vote.

Nigel Hutchings of the Chamber of Commerce said the business community "stood firmly behind" the case for an elected mayor, adding: "It will produce stability and growth."

The Supreme ObamaCare Question

Michael Tanner, New York Post
Next week, the Supreme Court will devote six hours over three days to hearing challenges to the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, a k a ObamaCare.The last time the court spent this much time hearing arguments in a case was in 1966, when it devoted six hours to the case establishing a defendant’s Miranda rights and seven hours to the case that upheld the Voting Rights Act. This decision is likely to be just as momentous.

ObamaCare's Slippery Slope

When a 1942 Supreme Court decision that most people never heard of makes the front page of the New York Times in 2012, you know that something unusual is going on.What makes that 1942 case -- Wickard v. Filburn -- important today is that it stretched the federal government's power so far that the Obama administration is using it as an argument to claim before today's Supreme Court that it has the legal authority to impose ObamaCare mandates on individuals.Roscoe Filburn was an Ohio farmer who grew some wheat to feed his family and some farm animals. But the U.S. Department of...
