IS A MULTINATIONAL SUPERMARKET WITH CAR PARKING AND A 'CHEAP AS CHIPS' NEW BUILD REALLY A STEP IN THIS DIRECTION? PERSONALLY I WOULD HOPE FOR A TOWN MARKET AREA WITH PROVISION FOR BETTER PUBLIC/PRIVATE TRANSPORT LINKS WILL BE MUCH MORE SUITABLE & APPRECIATED. IT COULD PROVIDE ROOM FOR SPECIALITY MARKETS THROUGHOUT THE YEAR IN WHICH THE LOCAL TRADERS COULD TAKE A LEAD, FOR MORE HOMEGROWN/HOMESPUN WARES, WHICH WOULD INCREASE THE VIABILITY OF SUSTAINABLE INCOMES FROM THE RESIDENTS OF OUR COMMUNITY, AND EVEN AFFORD SPACE FOR COMMUNITY LEARNING AND THE ARTS. ALL THIS IN A NEW BUILD WHICH COULD BE DICTATED TO COMPLY WITH MODERN SUSTAINABLE DESIGN/ENERGY PROVISION, USING LOCALLY SOURCED MATERIALS AND LABOUR. IS THAT NOT WHAT WE ALL NEED?
