The Community surrounding the site are split on their opinion of the proposals by Tesco, In this light we are working to ensure that the feelings of the community are reflected and not just our own.
There are still Major hurdles and problems with this application and we have made it very clear that the present application is not acceptable as there are still Highway, traffic volumes and disbursement issues that have to be addressed.
Other issues that we have brought to the attention of planners and Tesco are the need to ensure that Gulls are unable to nest on their roof space and also the affects on neighbouring shopping centres.
The Gas Tower on Western Riverside is still an obstacle although we realise that Tesco have made an attempt to resolve this issue.
Only time will tell if Tesco appeal the decision to refuse their application but we are hopeful that they will have listened to ours views as well as those of the community and if they do reapply that they take these views on board.
