Retrospective planning is a contradiction in terms! Planning is about deciding on whether what someone intends is a good thing to permit BEFORE they do it! It would be pretty chaotic if everyone ignored getting planning permission as Tesco have. A company that claims to be listening to local wishes should have more respect for local planning processes.Glenn Vowleshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02392000659876958930noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36190173.post-10761395466886552202010-11-23T17:19:57.408+00:002010-11-23T17:19:57.408+00:00Get real Glenn, yet another non-post on this becau...Get real Glenn, yet another non-post on this because it's the nasty Tescos.<br /><br />This is no different to any other business or household, they do it to get on with things, it's called retrospective planning. I would have thought someone who wanted to be part of government/local council would be fully aware of that.<br /><br />If they waited until everything was 100% approved nothing in this world would get done. Turning down the application was pathetic, typical Bristol City Council, it even took 3 different votes!! <br /><br />Any business would have no choice putting in the ramp because of disability laws. And refusing it because of changing a few windows is absurd.<br /><br />Myself and all my neighbours (mostly elderly by the way) who live within a 100m radius of it, unlike people over the other side of Wells Road, are glad to see it open, it is providing us with a superb selection of fresh fruit and vegetables and other produce at reasonable prices. It is a joy to shop in here unlike the existing shop opposite.<br /><br />And the way they have built it being sympathetic to the existing structure is excellent. Everyone I have asked say there is nothing wrong with it - but I expect you to make up some rubbish because you didn't get what you wanted.<br /><br />And where's all the hundreds of extra traffic you predicted along with it being unsafe for pedestrians? It's not and is much more safer than before.<br /><br />It is time for you to move on, you lost this one, get over it.<br /><br />It is without doubt the best thing that has happened to our area for years.A Concerned Resident, By The Friendshipnoreply@blogger.com
