How to object

Background

Tesco has submitted a planning application to Milton Keynes Council for the erection of a store of 15000 square feet with possible expansion to 20000 sq ft. This is almost the size of the Waitrose store (21000 sq ft) in Milton Keynes city centre. It is to be located about 500 metres from the town’s High Street on the Aston Martin Lagonda site, Tickford Street.

This proposed store will have a detrimental effect on Newport Pagnell High Street and the local area. Don’t let Newport Pagnell be another Wolverton!
