As you can see the Council has pushed with submitting the new leisure centre to planning without the housing development.
However just the leisure centre looks like a warehouse industrial building and the family and children water space has not even been considered.
Please go to the planning portal
Use ref: BH2026/00490 or just King Alfred
Select “Object” if you object and make a comment.

There are lots of reasons to object like the loss of family and children’s fun water space.
Financially the £65m which as a load will be £110m < £150m over 50 years. £2.2m - £3m per annum.
The view from the road looks like a warehouse.
Council claiming it would be world beating, first class, ambitious, state of the art, regional draw, but it being none of that. etc
There are lots of reasons to object.
