Muslim Association resubmits plans for Cradley Heath mosque
11:33am Wednesday 29th September 2010


PLANS for a mosque in Cradley Heath, complete with dome and minaret, are being resubmitted to Sandwell Council.


The Ahmadiyya Muslim Association was refused planning permission for its renovation of St Lukes Church Hall, School Street, in July due to parking problems and the size of the minaret and dome. However, the Muslim Association has resubmitted its application with a smaller minaret and dome and better parking provision.

The Association, whose motto is ‘Love for All, Hatred for None’ has been using the old church hall as a place of worship for two years. President of the Association Dr Masood Majoka said: “In its present state, St Luke’s Church Hall is inadequate for our requirements. It needs renovation and upgrading for the purposes of worship and service to the community.” He added: “We are a small local branch of a major national charity organisation.

“We maintain a low profile but are second to none for services to our local community, quietly we raise hundreds of thousands of pounds for charitable causes. We provide free services to the local community including litter pickings to keep the surrounding area clean.”

When finished the existing hall will be a dedicated prayer hall, the new extension will house a new multi-use hall, a one bedroom flat, an office and a kitchen.

A planning statement on behalf of the Muslim Association said: “The proposals also include the construction of a dome and minaret, external works for parking, refuse storage and boundary treatments. The aim of which will be to establish the structure as a readily identifiable mosque.”

The planning application will go before Sandwell Council later next month (October).

I'm just waiting for the "Oops, wrong plans. Sorry it's all been built to big!"
