    This existing shop already creates blockages of the footpath and encroaches its stands, trolleys and displays over the council limits as marked on the footpath that has already been allocated.

    This is not only an eye sore but does restrict pedestrians passing.

    This area is regularly congested and untidy almost on a daily basis.

    Trolley and cardboard cartons and boxes are also present in the area. The garden area in front of the shop is also suffering.

    Fruit stands are also placed in front of the bottle shop and once again the area is even more congested. I believe that this is not a council allocated area as well.

    Whilst I appreciate that the existing business has outgrown its present location, it should not be to the detriment of residents of the building that reside above the fruit shop and to pedestrians passing. Some pedestrians are elderly. There is also a safety issue that must be considered even for the existing endorsement.

    I do not support this submission.

    The current use of the common areas is very congested and dangerous to residents and the public at large. Any further use of the common area space would endanger the residents and the local community.

    Unless there are clear risk controls in place this would be an accident waiting to happen. The owners should have consulted residence and outlined the rational for the proposed expansion. Personally I have experienced numerous delays at all times during the day in getting to my carapace in the building this is due to trucks and pallets parked or stacked in the driveway. There is no system in place to manage the flow of traffic and deliveries to either the Bottle shop or this business, this is a constant battle that will only be increased if any proposal of this nature is granted. There is always a mess in the area, vegetables and cardboard boxes mostly, posing health hazards.

    Any size up would inconvenience all residence both in the building and beyond.

    I would strongly apposed this application and do not support this submission.
