Draft Local Plan
Representation ID: 13659
Received: 23/03/2016
Respondent: R M Gaymer
Agent: Freeths LLP
Representation Summary:
Insufficient provision is made for new retail floorspace at Ingatestone.

The result is an unsustainable pattern of main and bulk food shopping with predominately car based trips to large format out of centre food stores further afield.
