PETITIONS FOR CONSIDERATION APPENDIX 1 ITEM DATE PETITION TITLE AND PETITION STATEMENT WARDS TOTAL NUMBER NUMBER RECEIVED AFFECTED OF SIGNATURES 1 (b) 13th August Say no to Tesco! Stop Supermarket Expansion on our City Wide 37 2013 Local High Streets. We petition Glasgow City Council to stop further unwanted supermarket expansion on our local high streets (such as the proposed large food store in Hyndland, and the new Tesco Express stores in Kelvinbridge and Yorkhill) which poses a real threat to the many independent traders in our city. GCC must take action to address this escalating problem, as Tesco and the other major supermarkets (Sainsubury’s, Morrisons, Waitrose etc) continue to open smaller ‘Express’ and ‘Local’ stores on our local high streets, because they do not require such rigorous planning permission as larger stores. The rate at which these smaller stores are opening is alarming (Tesco stores have opened on Byres Road, Maryhill Road, Sauchiehall Street, Dumbarton Road and at many other sites across the city in the last few years). GCC must develop and implement new rules in its next City Plan to prevent new supermarkets opening in areas which already have good access to other local food suppliers/grocers, and which have other supermarkets within and certain radius. If GCC does not take decisive action on this issue now, these new supermarkets will spread all over our city, threatening the livelihoods of many in independent traders, which may be forced to close. Once all these alternative food suppliers/grocers are shut – our local high streets devastated as a result – these chain supermarkets will have a monopoly on our food supply and may hike up prices, whilst the people of Glasgow will be left with no choice but to shop there.There is plenty of evidence for this on the national Tescopoly website. There have been many meetings in the local areas affected by these new planned Tesco stores. There is strong feeling amongst the local communities that not only are these stores unwanted and should be prevented from opening, but that there is an urgent need to crack down on further supermarket expansion on our local high streets. The Principal Petitioner, since January 2013, has been in communication with GCC’s Planning Department, her local councillors and now this committee in an attempt to oppose the opening of the planned Tesco store closest to her in Kelvinbridge. Public meetings have been co-ordinated to discuss this issue on 16th June, 3rd and 10th July 2013, where the Principal Petitioner has met many local residents and representatives of local businesses concerned with this issue, as well as people campaigning against planned Tesco stores in other local areas (Yorkhill and Hyndand).There is an active Facebook Group which has grown out of these meetings and a Riseup Email Group. The Principal Petitioner has raised the issue with Woodside Community Council on 1st July and 5th August 2013 and she has stated that it was also concerned about the problem and were supportive of the petition..

Twentyci Property & Homemover Report
TwentyCi Property & Homemover Report – Q3 2017 Information embargoed until Wednesday 4th October 2017 at 00:01 Welcome to the latest TwentyCi Property & Homemover Report, a quarterly review of the UK property market. As a life event data company, TwentyCi has exclusive access to more than 29 billion qualified data points across the whole of the property sector – for both property purchases and rental. In addition to tracking sales momentum, this ‘state of the nation’ report provides unique insight into the people behind the numbers, creating a picture of the demographic, regional and socio-economic factors impacting the housing market. With a 99.6% view of both the property sales and rental markets, the TwentyCi Property & Homemover Report is the most comprehensive factual source of home moving data available. Key take-outs for Q3 2017 • Overall the volatile market is starting to stabilise with exchanges up 15.2% year-on-year and house prices increasing by 1.5% for the year. However London experiences lower growth in exchanges than the rest of the UK at 9% year-on-year, and prices drop by 8.4% in the Capital – one of the key reasons behind the overall fall in price for the market. • While the majority of market activity is for properties under £250k and with sub £50k household incomes, the biggest growth in transactions this quarter has been among buyers in higher income bands purchasing higher value properties. • Online-only estate agents’ market share increases by 19% this quarter. All data is based on Q3 2017 versus Q3 2016 year-on-year comparisons unless otherwise stated.
