Lidl depot plan passed (From Daily Echo)

Very true Tony, this Supermarket should not of got planning permission Sainsburys is only just up the road.

It appears to be a depot NOT a supermarket.
In other words its for storage and distribution.

Last time I look it was a plan for S&D depot plus market place, like what sainsburys was when that first open up

Barker Mills are systematically selling off and destroying green field sites in this area. The infrastructure is already at breaking point. Try driving around this area at rush hour!
Barker Mills couldn't give two hoots about anyone living in and around the sites, all they see are the £££ signs!

Oh Dear ......... What will the Blue Dinosaur think of that ....... Companies INVESTING in Southampton and bringing much needed jobs ....... And under a Labour Council

Pete,,,,you write on other threads about

I was only going on the article so i guess time will tell what it finally ends up as.
Lidl only seems to go for smaller retails usually so would be an interesting departure if they open something substantial.
Regardless, I would have thought brownfield sites should be used before greenfield sites.

Suprise Suprise Southy is against any development in the area, its a ditribution centre bringing up to 400 jobs to the area, one field alongside the motorway benefits around 6 horses only and havn't heard many objections from those that currently farm the land, an alternative walkway is within the plans and shock horror private tenants may have to seek alternative acccomodation, were they told by their private landlord they had the house for life ? Recent employment figures for this area should make people welcome further investment.

True to the first part, but look around that area, Tescos depot is only just around the corner also, Why not build this say on the west or north side of Totton, or to the north east of Southampton, to many of the same sort of thing in the same area.
Then theres the other part "Outside of the Box" your failing to think about those familys in those 3 homes.
When I look at it I don't just look at one angle, I tend to look at things in all directions.
So come on your ment to think out side the box not stuck in the middle of the box.

Agreed plans do change, and yes Brownfields sites first

400 jobs, bringing money into 400 households,,,feeding 400 families,,,400 people with more money to spend within the city,,,hopefully 400 off of JSA and other state benefits,,,400 people feeling better about the themselves,,,,400 + lives improved by the development.....Now Pete is that outside of the box enough for you? or maybe the bigger picture

Sure 3 homes will go,,,those families offered new properties,,,yes it's hard but the positives outweigh the negatives......do you think?

No those familys have not been offered new homes, these familys are on a private accomdation contact, and when the contract runs out it will not be renewed like it as been in the pass. The council may take them in with a 2 year emergency accomedation

Those 400 jobs include the construction of the place, when finished there will not be 100 full time jobs, it will part time jobs plus agency workers, just like Tescos just round the corner

thats better bit more of the bigger picture, but its still no good in this area, like i said theres all ready one in that area Tescos have one, what is needed is to find another close location to Southampton.
B&M estates trustees tried selling that part of the land once before while they was building the new O/S place, they are only interested in the £ and not what is really in people needs

400 jobs for Southampton.

All under an SO postcode

Most of these jobs will be the contruction of the place, which most will be traveling men, after the place is finish the only full time jobs will be in the office, all other jobs will be part time and angency.
And why can't it not be jobs for Test Valley, and the So post code is the only connection it really have.

As i understand it the land is part Southampton and part Test Valley, and as far as i know S.C.C. have already passed the planning application and this article refers to the Test Valley part so now building can go ahead.

You are right. More jobs are needed.

EVERY LIDL HELPS!

Southy please look at the following link and try (i know it hurts but try and understand) that the land in question crosses the border of S.C.C and Test Valley so they sought planning permission from both authorities.

But that link totally contradicts everything Southy has said above.

I though there was going to be less than 100 full-time jobs like the Tesco in the same area, but your link suggests 300.

Which one is right? Your link to the Echo or Southy?

Are you suggesting Southy just made it up? He may well have got the info from one of those secret meetings and it could infact be true?

You know these websites make up this stuff don't you as they've all be hacked and altered.

..yea, sorry I forgot.

Southampton City Council were rather foolish to go through the whole planning application approval process when they could just have asked southy if it was partly in their territory. He’d of told ‘em.

Being a resident of St Martins Close I am I am very concerned about the noise levels will be coming from this new complex. I am all for creating new jobs but on any given night after midnight I can hear the M271 traffick very clearly. Do we really need more noise pollution in the shape of reversing beepers, pallets and cages being dropped and scraped along the backs of lorries not to mention chiller and air conditioning units running 24 hrs? We already have enough noise from the docks operations all night long. It does not matter what lidle says about their efforts to quieten the noise levels we will still be be able to hear un-acceptable levels of noise.
I fell very sorry for people living at the bottom of Lower Brownhill as they will be in for a living hell if lidle get their way.

Southampton is included because of the Traffic, that is all.
If you gone to the consutation at Nursling hall then you would know its in Test valley council area, the only concerns southampton is because its right on our boarder and roads will need to be ajusted to accomadate the extra traffic flowing though the east, Soutampton boundary ends in the middle of old redbridge lane, the location of this depot is where Yewtree Farm use to be, (inbetween the O/S and the Holiday inn)

I know what your saying I hear the same racket every night also like many others do on this side of southampton.

Freefinker and IronLady2010 why dont you try to attend meetings, then you might find what things are really about and what is really being put forward
