Ice Rink 2009: could Parade Gardens be ideal site?

November 7, 2008 4:08 PM

Since the successful ice rink in Queen's Square several years ago the residents of Bath have been eagerly awaiting another opportunity to skate. This year we again lost the chance because of mistakes in the consultation process.

At the B&NES Cabinet meeting this week, Councillor Paul Crossley (Lib Dem, Southdown) said:

"An ice rink for the city is not something that you can leave till the last minute: it needs to be planned well ahead. Now that we have an operator that wants to bring an ice rink to the city, we need to work in partnership to achieve this - starting now.

"I consider the ideal solution to be in Parade Gardens but, as with any site in Bath, there are a range of issues and concerns to be addressed. I was delighted that the new Cabinet member, Councillor Gazzard, has agreed to listen to suggestions and work with interested groups to look at all possible sites, including Parade Gardens, to ensure an ice rink comes to Bath for the festive season 2009."

    If you are a resident of the Bath constituency and are writing to discuss any issue that Parliament or government is responsible for, you must provide your home address as MPs are generally only permitted to act on behalf of constituents.

    If you are not a constituent, you do not need to provide your address, but the matters we can deal with are more limited and you may wish to contact your local MP in the first instance.
