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 Mr. White,

With reference to your Freedom of Information request of 29th July 2009.

I have been advised that the information you requested in questions (1)
and (3) has been provided on the attached spreadsheet. Unfortunately it
was not possible to break down the information further and it will
therefore be necessary for you to pull out the A1 applications manually. I
have also been advised that we do not record retrospective applications.

I hope this information is of use. However, if you are dissatisfied with
the way in which your request has been dealt with you may seek a review of
the decision by a request in writing to Mr. S. Carvell, Director of
Environment.

Yours sincerely
Marilyn Blunden
FOI Co-ordinator
