Morrisons is back for more

Morrisons has applied to reduce the conditions imposed at the time of the original planning permission.  See their reasons (Letter). If you want to know more about this application then click here.  The reference number is 2014/0484. Many local people objected to such a large supermarket in the town centre.  Others, who supported the development, did so with the proviso that a number of concerns were met with the appropriate conditions. One of those concerns was the increase in noise and the other the possible increase in movement of lorries during the night. Morrison wants to remove these conditions because it feels that they are unnecessary and unduly onerous.  Many people have told me that Morrisons should have raised this matter during its original application - it accepted it then and should do so now. Make sure your views are known by emailing tplan@elmbridge.gov.uk, quoting reference 2014/0484, before 21 March 2014. Remember to tell your friends and neighbours.
