Sheffield Council’s Planning Officer has gone against overwhelming public opinion and has recommended that the application for a food store on the Parkhead Garage site and the adjoining semi-detached house be granted conditionally.
Further details about this application and the Planning Officer’s recommendation can be found in planning application reference 14/00133/ful which can be viewed on Sheffield Council’s website.
If the Planning Committee approves TESCO’s proposals for a store, it is quite possible TESCO may make an attempt to purchase the other adjoining semi-detached house, demolish both houses and create a much larger store, thereby changing the distinctive residential feel of Parkhead and Whirlow for ever!
We, the undersigned, call on Sheffield Council to put the wishes of residents first. These are that Parkhead and Whirlow should remain a primarily residential area and that an application by a multi-national food store chain for a development aimed at passing trade should be rejected.
There is already a long established convenience store which well meets the needs of the residents themselves.
