Sefton Council has hit back after "doctored" leaflets have been circulated over the controversial "masterplan" to transform Orrell Mount Park into 3G football pitches.
The Council claims that these leaflets along with other documents have been posted to residents in Bootle that are "seeking to influence the outcome of the consultation" by misleading residents. The plans have been met with resistance from local neighbours who believe the installation of the 3G football pitches will lead to a lack of green space in the area.
The Orrell Mount "masterplan", was released as part of a public consultation to encourage ideas and group thinking. Along with the 3G pitch, the Council plan to install a footpath with benches and bins, a new car parking space for people using the park or pitch, and renovate the pavilion however this will be done after the 3G pitches have been installed.
