Can I ask who is going to open this bar / restaurant that everyone goes on about? Are any of the objectors going to?
Currently the only people are Dominoes, who will also supply some new local employment for the young unemployed.
No body else seems to be rushing to open anything on that site.
So while I understand people's objections think a little more about the state of the market. Pizza places, especially take-aways are one of the few businesses that have done well in the last few years and are employing youngsters, who currently 1 in 5 are out of work. It's a lot tougher for bars / restaurants. So you could end up for quite a while with an empty site, which is no use to anyone.
The signage issue I do believe is a valid argument, and should be pushed that what they use sits alongside and is reflective of the other shops on that parade.
