Moving skate park is ‘huge waste of cash’ PDF Print E-mail

A QUARREL is brewing over plans to spend thousands of pounds to move a new skate park just a few yards across a field.

Kirklees councillors claim the park off Cross Lane, Skelmanthorpe, was incorrectly sited and is making the life of elderly people living nearby unbearable.

They also claim the parks’ siting is hitting property values and residents trying to sell their homes are losing thousands, as much as 20% compared with before the park was built.

But Denby Dale Parish councillors, who organised the construction of the park in April 2006, say the £18,000 move is a massive waste of money.
