GOVERNORS at Bacup & Rawtenstall Grammar School are hoping to open their sports hall for community use if they can get the agreement of councillors.
One of the conditions, when the sports hall was opened at the Glen Road site in 2005, was that it could only be used by staff and grammar school students or pupils at nearby Waterfoot Primary.
An application made to Rossendale Council is asking for this restriction to be removed and the hours of use to be extended to 7.30am to 10pm, Mondays to Fridays, and 10am to 8pm at weekends.
A 45-space car park should be empty outside of normal school hours.
