The problem was always inappropriate change of use on this site, not an objection to Dominos, though naturally the application will have created negative feelings towards them as an organisation for some residents.
I'm actually still hoping to have a meeting with Dominos next week to propose alternative suitable sites for them - there are several in the area that are appropriate, as they have access to the main road and are similarly spacious, and have been empty for some time. Any additional suggestions for appropriate locations would actually be very helpful.
