Plan Reference 02 – Indicative Proposed Floor Plan The Pensions Trust Former Apollo 2000 Store, Unit 2b 108 Eastern Avenue, Gloucester Retail Statement savills.com/planning 1.0 INTRODUCTION Introduction 1.1 Savills has prepared this Retail Statement on behalf of The Pensions Trust as part of a planning application at the former Apollo 2000 retail unit at Unit 2b of 108 Eastern Avenue. The application is to vary Condition 9 attached to Planning Permission: 98/00119/FUL in order to enable Home Bargains to operate from the unit and bring it back into beneficial economic use. Application Proposal 1.2 The application seeks to vary Condition 9 attached to Planning Permission: 98/0019/FUL. The condition restricts the floorspace at the application site to be used for the sale of the following goods: • carpets • furnishings • electrical goods • pets and pet supplies • office equipment • DIY products for the maintenance and improvement of the home • garden • motor vehicle • any goods ancillary to the permitted uses 1.3 A proportion of the Home Bargains product range is compliant with the current goods restriction. However, Home Bargains require consent to allow the sale of an ancillary food and drink product range (approximately 30% of retail floorspace) and a wider non food offer. 1.4 The application does not propose any additional floorspace or external works to the retail unit (which would be subject to a subsequent application). Illustrative drawings of how we anticipate the unit would be broken up are included at Appendix 1. The drawings show a downsizing of the Staples unit and an enlarged Unit 2b of 1,115 sq.m (12,000 sq.ft). Otherwise the unit would be too small for Home Bargains. The Pensions Trust Former Apollo 2000 Store, Unit 2b 108 Eastern Avenue, Gloucester Retail Statement savills.com/planning 1.5 As such, the application proposes the following additional condition to control the retail use of part of the site: In addition to the goods stated at Condition 9, the following additional categories of goods can be sold from a single unit not exceeding 1,115 sq.m (12,000 sq.ft), provided that no single category exceeds 20% of the floor space of the unit, other than (i) (food & drink), where the limit is 30%: a. Furniture b. Toys and games c. Travel goods d. Children and infants goods e. Sports and leisure goods f. Bicycle and bicycle accessories g. Toiletries and health and beauty products h. Household goods i. Food and drink Structure of the Statement 1.6 The Statement appraises the relevant retail planning issues relating to the proposed development and is structured as follows: Section 2.0: Site and Background: Provides details of the application site and the surrounding area and the planning history and policy allocation. Section 3.0: Relevant Planning Policy Context: Provides a review of the relevant policies within the NPPF relating to this proposal. Section 4.0: Home Bargains: Describes the business model and product range of the intended occupier. Section 5.0: Sequential Assessment: Provides an assessment of whether there are any sequentially preferable alternative sites that could accommodate the proposal. The Pensions Trust Former Apollo 2000 Store, Unit 2b 108 Eastern Avenue, Gloucester Retail Statement savills.com/planning Section 6.0: Impact of the Proposed Development: Considers the impact that the proposed development could have on Gloucester City Centre and the other defined centres assessed by the criteria laid out in the NPPF. 1.7 Our overall conclusion is that: 1. The proposal is necessary to return the unit to beneficial use. 2. The proposal will not have a ‘significant adverse impact’ on Gloucester City Centre of any of the other defined centres. 3. There are no sequentially preferable sites that can accommodate the proposal. 4. The proposed development accords with the latest Government guidance which seeks to secure sustainable economic growth and sets out a clear presumption in favour of such development. 1.8 In the light of the above, we conclude that the proposal accords with the retails policies set out in NPPF. The Pensions Trust Former Apollo 2000 Store, Unit 2b 108 Eastern Avenue, Gloucester Retail Statement savills.com/planning 2.0 SITE AND BACKGROUND Site Description The Application Site and Surrounding Area 2.1 The application site is the retail warehouse units at 108 Eastern Avenue Unit 2b currently measures approximately 647 sq.m and has been vacant since March 2009 when the retailer Apollo 2000 Limited ceased trading when it entered into administration. 2.2 The current configuration of the other units at is as follows: • Staples (Unit 1) 1,858 sq.m • Maplin (Unit 2a) 460 sq.m 2.3 As explained in the Introduction, please note a separate application would be required to reconfigure the units to provide 1,115 sq.m in Unit 2b for Home Bargains. 2.4 The site is accessed via the A38/Eastern Avenue, which is a principal route through Gloucester. 2.5 The site is located out-of-centre but within the area that is the principal location for retail warehouses in the City. Immediately adjacent to the north of 108 Eastern Avenue is Eastern Avenue Retail Park, which comprises: • Currys (Unit 1 & 2) 3,100 sq.m • Vacant (Unit 3) 930 sq.m • Harvey’s (Unit 4) 980 sq.m • Carpetright (Unit 5) 980 sq.m • Pizza Hut (Pod unit) 350 sq.m 2.6 A freestanding Lidl foodstore measuring 1,590 sq.m is located immediately adjacent to the south of the site. Immediately to the rear of the site is a Gloucester Cemeteries and Crematorium, Coney Hill. On the opposing side of Eastern Avenue is Eastern Avenue Trading Estate. The surrounding areas are predominantly housing estates with some additional retail warehousing extending along Eastern Avenue. For example, the Halfords store located on Eastern Avenue The Pensions Trust Former Apollo 2000 Store, Unit 2b 108 Eastern Avenue, Gloucester Retail Statement savills.com/planning (1,050 sq.m), the Homebase unit located off Eastbrook Road (3,580 sq.m) and Gloucester Retail Park off Eastern Avenue, where current occupiers are XXX. Development Plan Allocation 2.7 The application site is unallocated within the Second Stage Deposit Local Plan 2002, which we understand is used by the LPA for development control purposes as an important material consideration. Retail Conditions and Relevant Planning History 2.8 The planning history relevant to the proposal is as follows: 1. On 14 July 1998 the Council granted planning permission: 98/00119/FUL for the ‘erection of building to provide 2 No Class A1 non-food retail units together with associated service area and parking’. The building sub-divided the unit to create Units 1 and 2. Condition 9 controls the retail use of the site, it states: “The retail units hereby permitted shall be used only for the sale of carpets, furnishings, electrical goods, pets and pet supplies, DIY products for the maintenance and improvement of the home, garden and motor vehicle, and any goods ancillary to these permitted uses and for no other purpose without the prior permission of the City Council”. Condition 10 stated that the units could not be sub-divided to create units of less than 929 sq.m. 2. On 7 July 2010 the Council granted planning permission: 10/00381/FUL for a ‘variation of Condition 10 of 98/00119/FUL to allow for the sub-division of Unit 2 into 2 units’. The permission enabled the sub-division of Unit 2 to form Units 2a and 2b measuring at ground floor level 461 sq.m and 697 sq.m respectively. 3. On 3 November 2010 the Council approved ‘minor amendments to planning permission ref. 10/00381/FUL comprising the re-positioning of internal sub-dividing wall, adjustments to approved mezzanine floor and re-positioning of internal stairs’. The repositioning of the internal sub-dividing wall to create units measuring 461 sq.m (GIA) (Unit 2a) and 650 sq.m (Unit 2b) (Ref. 10/01051/NMA). The Pensions Trust Former Apollo 2000 Store, Unit 2b 108 Eastern Avenue, Gloucester Retail Statement savills.com/planning 3.0 RELEVANT PLANNING POLICY CONTEXT The National Planning Policy Framework 3.1 The National Planning Policy Framework (NPPF) for England was published by the Government on 27 March 2012. The NPPF replaces over a thousand pages of previous planning policies with around fifty, and takes effect immediately. 3.2 The NPPF now replaces all its predecessors as planning policy documents. All Planning Policy Statements/Planning Policy Guidelines (PPS/PPG) are replaced [Annex 3 of the NPPF]. 3.3 It is important to note that the NPPF does not change the statutory basis on which planning decisions are founded. So, Section 38 (6) of the Planning and Compensation Act 2004 remains in full effect. Thus if regard is to be had to the “Development Plan” for the purposes of any determination, then that decision must be made in accordance with the plan unless material considerations indicate otherwise. The plan-led system continues [paragraphs 11 and 12].

  • What's Next for Ukpound Shops?
    February 3, 2015 February 3, 2015 What’s Next For UK Pound Shops? Major UK pound shop chains have seen revenues surge in the post-recession years. The economic slump and the Woolworths failure paved the way for this segment’s rapid expansion of stores. With further expansion expected, we think the segment is looking increasingly crowded. Some players are now eying international markets in their bid for growth. DEBORAH WEINSWIG Executive Director–Head Global Retail & Technology Fung Business Intelligence Centre [email protected] New york: 646.839.7017 Fung Business Intelligence Centre (FBIC) publication: UK POUND SHOPS 1 Copyright © 2015 The Fung Group, All rights reserved. February 3, 2015 What’s Next For UK Pound Shops? THE POUND SHOP BOOM Variety-store retailers have proliferated rapidly in the UK, mirroring the store-expansion boom of discount grocery chains (notably Aldi and Lidl), as the low-price, no-frills formula has found particular resonance in Britain’s era of sluggish economic growth. This retail segment encompasses chains like Poundland, 99p Stores and Poundworld, which sell all of their products at fixed price points. Similar to the dollar chains Dollar General and Family Dollar in the US, everything in the pound stores sells for £1 (or 99p) and the goods are bought cheaply in bulk. The group also includes chains with more flexible pricing schemes. Those include B&M Bargains, Home Bargains and Poundstretcher. For both types of stores, the offerings are heavy on beauty and personal care, household fast-moving consumer goods (FMCGs) and food and beverages (particularly confectionery). Other categories typically include do-it-yourself (DIY) and automotive accessories, pet products and seasonal goods.

  • Notice of Designation of TJ Morris Limited Under the Groceries (Supply Chain Practices) Market Investigation Order 2009
    Notice of designation of TJ Morris Limited under the Groceries (Supply Chain Practices) Market Investigation Order 2009 3 September 2019 Introduction and background 1. The Competition Commission (CC) investigated the supply of groceries, following a reference from the Office of Fair Trading (OFT) in May 2006. On 30 April 2008 the final report was published and set out the CC’s findings from the investigation (CC Report). The CC found adverse effects on competition arising in several areas including the exercise of buyer power by certain grocery retailers with respect to their suppliers of groceries through the adoption of supply chain practices that transfer excessive risks and unexpected costs to those suppliers, impairing their willingness to invest or innovate. To address these concerns, the CC made the Groceries (Supply Chain Practices) Market Investigation Order 2009 (the Order). The Order imposes a series of obligations on ‘Designated Retailers’, including to comply with the Groceries Supply Code of Practice (GSCOP). 2. The Competition and Markets Authority (CMA) actively monitors and enforces the remedies within its remit, including the Order, and works closely with the Groceries Code Adjudicator (GCA).1 As part of this role, the CMA has considered the evidence available to it regarding whether there are additional retailers that should be designated under the Order and responded to requests in this area. 3. In October 2016, the Government launched a formal Call for Evidence to explore the case for extending the remit of the GCA. In February 2018, it published the response to the Call for Evidence, in which it made several changes that affect the sector, but did not extend the scope of the GCA.

  • P/2019/3227 00580/AI/P1 Address: Unit 5 Bull
    PLANNING COMMITTEE 20th January 2020 Sam Smith: [email protected] References: P/2019/3227 00580/AI/P1 Unit 5 Bullsbridge Industrial Estate, Hayes Road, Address: Southall, UB2 5LN Ward: Heston West Proposal: Change of use from A1 (non-food) retail to open A1 (including food) retail, subdivision of the existing unit to form two A1 retail units, car park reconfiguration, external alterations and associated works Drawing Numbers: See end of report. Application Received: 04 September 2019 1.0 SUMMARY 1.1 The subject site is the former Toys R Us store in the Bullsbridge Industrial Estate that has been vacant since the business was liquidated in early 2018. 1.2 There is a planning condition on the original 1994 Planning Permission which restricts the use of the site as a food retail business. This application (some 26 years after the original) seeks to subdivide the unit into two stores, accommodating a Lidl food store and Home Bargains. Associated ancillary works including car parking and façade changes are required to facilitate the subdivision and to update the buildings appearance and functionality. 1.3 This report seeks to demonstrate that the proposal will not have an unacceptable impact on the viability of surrounding town centre locations in Hounslow, Hillingdon and Ealing, and also that the proposal would not harm local traffic movements, subject to the imposition of appropriate conditions. 1.4 This report recommends that Members grant Planning Permission for the development, subject to a Legal Agreement and Conditions as recommended in this report. It is therefore recommended that Planning Permission should be APPROVED subject to a legal agreement and the conditions set out at Section 13.0 2.0 SITE DESCRIPTION 2.1 The subject site falls within the Bulls Bridge Industrial Estate located in the north-western corner of the borough, bordering the borough of Hillingdon to the north.
