I think some land was gifted, but that was more to do with access than anything significant, if memory serves, it was something to do with a Section 106 (whatever that is).

It means that having seen the plans the council felt there would be an impact on the surrounding area, traffic issues, access issues etc. We presumably agreed to adjust our plans and in return the Council would give us the ability to achieve those plans. I don't know the details, but it might be that, we would build a certain type of building if they gave us some land to create the access route. If and when the Fruit Market development goes through (with or without a stadium) there will probably be similar S 106 deals done.

Section 106 (S106) Agreements are legal agreements between Local Authorities and developers; these are linked to planning permissions and can also be known as planning obligations.

Section 106 agreements are drafted when it is considered that a development will have significant impacts on the local area that cannot be moderated by means of conditions attached to a planning decision.  

For example, a new residential development can place extra pressure on the social, physical and economic infrastructure which already exists in a certain area. A Planning obligation will aim to balance the pressure created by the new development with improvements to the surrounding area ensuring that where possible the development would make a positive contribution to the local area and community.

What the Section 106 Agreement will cover

When a planning application is submitted to the Council, we will assess the application as to whether the development would cause a significant impact to the area and community.

The S.106 will vary depending on the nature of the development and based on the needs of the District.  The most common obligations include:-

Public Open Space

Affordable Housing

Education

Highways

Town Centre Improvements

Health

Recreation Disturbance Avoidance and Mitigation Strategy

To give him the benefit of the doubt and that he's not Henbury Gas blatantly inventing lies then possibly he's mixing it up with this:

Ashton Vale plans mean new council homes - and a new station for Ashton Gate?

Council plan to build their own new homes - with space for a station too

Around 140 new homes, including 56 new council houses, will finally be built on an area of land near Ashton Gate – which could also provide space for a new station to serve the football and rugby stadium.

Council chiefs gave the go-ahead to use the Bristol City Council-owned land, known as the Alderman Moores site in Ashton Vale, to build houses on, years after it was first identified as a site for possible housing.

But instead of selling off the land to a private developer and then trying to persuade that firm to include council homes or ‘affordable housing’ on the site, housing chief Paul Smith got the backing of the council’s cabinet to do the development themselves.

Having a look at the building site today.

Wycombe commentators taking the piss big time.

They’ve commented that the ground on the left hand side tails off a bit, probably down a sink hole.

Then they said “Don’t know what the new stand will be like but it’s in keeping with the rest of the ground, a bus stop next to a tent, next to a bit of scaffolding”.

Agent Low puts Wycombe 1 up to a chorus of Wanchor and Sheeeed’ead.

Entertainment all round today at the cess pit.

The few photos I’ve seen that doesn’t look very temporary. I was expecting something a bit more like Fulham’s temporary end. I can see why the locals are a bit pissed about it.
