Please support the campaign to open RollaCity in Rochford, Essex.

Copyright: Rollacity

Last week (19-8-2010) after a meeting with Rochford District Council – Rochford (and the Southend area) lost out on a fantastic business and recreational opportunity – RollaCity. The planning application was lost by just one vote. Sixteen of the councillors eligible to vote, couldn’t even make the meeting.

As a league we have been in contact with the people behind the application since the plans were made public. This contact has been very encouraging and they have been very supportive of our league. As a league we believe that a new roller rink can be nothing but a positive addition to the area. As such we are asking for your help.

A petition has been set up as part of a new campaign which is going to be started to help the would-be owners with their appeal against the council/application.

Please could you sign this petition and show your support for what will be an amazing facility for all of the surrounding area to enjoy.

As fans of rollersports already, I’m sure I don’t need to tell you what a great opportunity this could be for families in the area, our league and other local rollersports teams.

They really need everyone’s support on this. Please sign and ask your friends and family to support this campaign/appeal too!
