Waitrose support the Local Plan Vision. A new Waitrose store will make a significant contribution to achieving this vision by enhancing the towns food offer.

We support the level of retail need identified for convenience shopping in the Borough. The policy should recognise it can sometime be appropriate to deliver food stores at locations on the edge of and out side of town centres. This policy should be cross-referenced to policy DM9. This will ensure the policy is sufficiently robust.
