English Everton has taken the next step in getting its new stadium approved by submitting plans to local authorities.
The stadium is a joint venture with Tesco that will seat 50,000. Fifty retail outlets are slated for the area. The cost is estimated at GBP 400 million.
Supporters are touting this as a way to redevelop the area in Kirkby Market. They say it will provide an economic boost to hotels, pubs and restaurants.
The club also will help with infrastructure improvements to the area.
The Kirkby Residents Action Group oppose the plans, citing large match-day traffic that would create a loss of green space.
