A big well done to all our players from the coaching team – we are very proud of you all, congratulations also from everyone at BLTSC
I am delighted to announce that our planning application for floodlighting to courts 5,6 & 7 was passed tonight, without objection, by Bromley Planning Committee
My thanks go to everyone that was involved: in meeting our neighbours, debating at Committee and in particular to Helen Farrow who, as our planning consultant, provided guidance and insight that made our application so strong.
This project has provided us with the start of a meaningful dialogue with our neighbours, indeed their tacit support has been key to this approval. Please remember do your bit and respect this is where they live.
We’re now looking at potential finance/ grant options through the LTA before getting work underway: watch this space for further news.
