– In the very best of all worlds, the arena could perhaps be ready by autumn 2025, but more likely by 2026, says Stefan Åberg, the municipality’s property manager to Värnamo News.
It can take around six months before the Land and Environmental Court in Växjö has decided the case. In the meantime, the municipality hopes that IFK Värnamo will get a dispensation to play Allsvenskan football at Finnvedsvallen until the new arena is ready.
Property manager Stefan Åsberg also tells the newspaper that the municipality is looking at alternative locations for a new arena in case the Land and Environment Court rejects the plans for the Ljuseveka area. However, he does not want to say what the 4-5 alternatives are.
