Leicester City Football Club is pushing ahead with plans to expand its stadium and develop the surrounding area – despite months of delays in the planning process.
The club applied to Leicester City Council last October to add thousands more seats, along with an indoor entertainment arena, hotel, and other big changes. It was hoped a decision would be made last February, but that was pushed back to April. The most recent target date for a decision passed at the end of last month.
Both the council and club said the complex talks over the planning application were still continuing, with both working together to get the application ready for a potential green light.
