7/11/09 Leeds Council planning application to change Loading bay area at The Carriageworks into Hackney Carriage Stand. The taxi stand will operate 6pm-8am. Many members park in the bay, legally, after 6pm as do members of our audience - and we use the loading bay to bring scenery & props into & out of The Carriageworks. It's also used as a safe drop off area for people going into The Carriageworks at other times, but it appears that the Loading bay status will remain 8am-6pm. Deadline for objections [to Planning NOT The Carriageworks] is before 20 November 2009 [see notice of intent/planning application details on lamp post near archway on Great George Street] pdf copy of the notice for ref is here Guide document/info which may help you when writing/emailing your objections |

No matter what your art or craft form is (painting, dancing, multimedia, singing, music, acting, handcrafts... etc.), by attending one of these days you will gain the generic skills and confidence to deliver a simple workshop to other amateurs. |
