TC5 Small and Independent Shops

The Council will promote the provision of small shop premises suitable for small and independent businesses.

We will:

  • expect large retail developments to include a proportion of smaller units;
  • attach conditions to planning permissions for retail developments to remove their ability to combine units into larger premises, where appropriate; and
  • encourage the occupation of shops by independent businesses and the provision of affordable premises.
