Thumbs up for New Community Building

CMK Residents supported the latest plans for the proposed new community pavilion in Campbell Park in a consultation run by the Town Council during November and December. Leaflets were distributed to all areas of CMK parish, detailing plans for the new centre, which will include meeting rooms, a performance space and a new public cafe being developed by The Parks Trust.

85% of the responses received to the consultation were in favour, including several from residents involved in local organisations who felt they could make use of the new facilities.

“With the public consultation now complete,” said Town Council chair Dr. Rebecca Kurth, “we are now preparing a full planning application for this exciting project, which should be submitted to Milton Keynes Council in the next few weeks.” The planning approval process is likely to take several months, but it is hoped the facility will be developed and fitted out for an opening in late 2018.
