  • Fans, residents and stakeholders were invited to drop-in sessions at the City Ground on 5–6 December to view the latest designs.
  • Forest plans to file the redevelopment to Rushcliffe Borough Council on 15 December after presenting the project publicly.
  • KSS Group has been engaged to oversee the work, and East Midlands Mayor Claire Ward offered support at the launch event.
  • The total cost has not been disclosed, and the separate freehold sale of the City Ground land remains pending, with Nottingham City Council saying talks are progressing positively.
