If the meeting follows form then any discussion in regard to Dominoes will be ignored or silenced. As it states only the application will be presented and that is purely building works etc.

Will be interesting if any of the objectors to a Dominos eventually become customers?

I thought the proposal to turn the old bank into a Dominos a few years back was rejected because it was a Dominos and would involve loads of delivery drivers?

That precedent would imply that these are valid planning objections which should be considered by the authority when making its decision.

Does anyone know where you can access the results of former planning applications?

It will be interesting to know if any of the proponents of Dominos (~15% of members according to our straw poll) live near the area affected by the moped noise and clutter, or in fact, if they live in Honor Oak at all.

I know Sam & he is a good officer. As previously stated this is not a change of use application.

Very true, but past experience has given me a sceptical view, perhaps if it were a Waitrose?
Or if it was not well supported it would be short lived, supply and denand works wherever you reside.

If you know Sam, then perhaps you could find out what part Dominos plays in all this, as was first put forward & what I thought this meeting has been convened for.

Why it was rejected a few years back

Surely the same can be said for many businesses. Someone suffers somewhere for other peoples benefits.

That’s for an entirely different address, what is now Mamma Dough on a large corner site. The fish and chip shop is already a hot food takeaway and i presume is already A5 use not A1

I think @Scully was just posting as an FYI on the previous rejection reasons.

I understood why you put the post up, as the reason it is now being challenged is the same as before!

Surely the application was challenged before as a change of use from sit-in restaurant to takeaway?

So are we going to have an opportunity to voice our concerns about the noise and safety issues that will inevitably arise from a load of extra mopeds tearing around HOP? Plenty already cut through the barriers at the junctions around Gabriel Street and Grierson Road/Bovill Road/Garthorne Road. It seems ridiculous that we’re not going to be ‘allowed’ to talk about it in the planning meeting.

They won’t stop you talking about it, but they won’t take any notice as it is not a possible reason for refusal given that there is no change of use and that the existing fish and chip shop could legitimately have a whole shoal of mopeds without any additional permission.

If there is a continuing problem with moped riding on the pavement (to cut through barriers), then this is something that you may wish to bring to the attention of the police. Perhaps @SgtBiddle and @CroftonParkSNT would be able to keep and eye out for naughty moped (as @ForestHillSNT did for mopeds around London Road).

It happens all the time! @SgtBiddle and @CroftonParkSNT it would be great to have you keeping these mopeds in check if you can. I’m hoping the Dominos ones will be better behaved.

There’s a big disincentive for a Domino’s delivery person to do this, surely? Compared to Deliveroo (which could be coming from different places), they tend to be easily identifiable and with the shop so close, they won’t want people to be going in and complaining.
