Dear Sir or Madam,

I believe you are an authority with planning responsibilities
(according to http://www.theplanningdirectory.co.uk/au...),
apologies if this is not the case.

Can you please let me know the following relating to planning
applications featuring a change of use from A1 (shop), under the
Town and Country Planning (Use Classes) Order 1987.

In the last 5 years:

1) How many planning applications have you received featuring a
change of use from A1?

2) Of those applications in 1, how many of these were
retrospective?

3) How many planning applications have you received from Starbucks
(or their representatives) featuring a change of use from A1?

4) Of those applications in 3, how many of these were
retrospective?

Yours faithfully,

Matt White

Dear Matt

Further to your recent request, I can provide the following information.

Q1. Since 1st January 2004 to date, 72 applications were received for
Change of Use from A1 use. Of these 61 were approved, 3 refused, 4
withdrawn and 4 have not yet been determined.

Q2. It is not possible to ascertain from the Planning database which of
these were submitted retrospectively - this information can only be
retrieved from the hard copy file and this retrieval would incur a charge.

Q3. None of the applications received were in the name of Starbucks.

Please contact me if you require further information or clarification.
