Core Strategy Consultation on Strategy Directions 2008

Representation ID: 20278

Received: 22/01/2009

Respondent: Battle Town Council

Representation Summary:

Box 13e: Retail floor space - Core Strategy proposal for increased retail floor space. As with other services, the Council would be concerned if such an increase took people out of the town centre since that could have the opposite effect to that desired of retaining trade in the town. An extension of one of the smaller supermarkets (presumably Budgens/Jempsons) would clearly be preferred. A converted Memorial Hall, however, could accommodate an internal mall incorporating quality shops and boutiques.
