The planning application for Scottish Premiership side Aberdeen's proposed move to a new £50M ($64.7M) stadium will "not be considered until autumn," according to the BBC. The stadium and training facilities "would be built at Kingsford, close to the Aberdeen bypass, near Westhill." The club said that the plans for the project would not be put before councilors in June as "originally hoped." Aberdeen added that "if planning permission was granted in October, it could still have the stadium completed" in '20 (BBC, 5/24). The HERALD SCOTLAND reported the vote scheduled for June 21 will now "likely have to wait until October after the council and consultees requested more information on the blueprints," including additional environmental surveys. The scheme has been "met with opposition from residents who do not want the stadium built on their doorstep." Club execs said that they "already provided comprehensive information, reports and studies" to support their application but agreed to resubmit their bid with the details requested. Aberdeen Vice-Chair George Yule said, "This important development will deliver real benefit in sporting, social and economic terms for stakeholders." However, Yule warned that any further delays "could hurt" the club. Yule: "Further slippage, beyond October, or a negative outcome will result in us missing our target timescales and this will have a material impact on the club's ability to recruit and retain talent." The club is "desperate to quit" its aging Pittodrie base, with upkeep costs totaling more than £700,000 ($906,000) per year (HERALD SCOTLAND, 5/24).
