A PLYMOUTH Argyle supporters group has been given permission for a temporary hospitality marquee on land at Home Park football ground.
The Green Taverners (GTS) sought consent from Plymouth City Council to put a 35x15m structure to the south of the Mayflower Grandstand for three years.
The council's planning committee voted in favour giving the GTs six months from the date of opening to submit a management plan for the facility. Councillors agreed a travel plan and showers for staff, recommended by officers, was not needed.
The application, which includes portacabin toilets, was expected to be decided by officers through delegated powers but was called to committee by ward member Cllr Kate Taylor (Lab, Ham) because of one resident's concerns over noise, loss of public amenity, impact on visual amenity as well as parking pressures. There was a total of 114 letters in support of the marquee plan.
