Planners have found Tesco to be the best store for Sheringham & recommend approval.
They also say Waitrose would have the most "damaging effect" for Sheringham.
So how on earth have the Planning Section managed to vote for the Waitrose Store?
They are allegedly having to seek legal advice on whether this decision is legal, which
means that even more of OUR Council Tax money is going to be spent. A very close
look needs to be taken at those involved in this decision as it defies logic.
We will put more information on this site as soon as it is available.
Rest assured, Tesco are not going to go away.
Anyone disagreeing with this decision can email their thoughts.

Not one of these people was voted in by the people of Sheringham.
It is totally inaccurate to say that Sheringham defeats Tesco, many people in Sheringham
are desperate for them to come to our town.
No yet again it is all decided by North Norfolk Distruct Council. (No that's not a typo)
with an arrow, straight into the heart of Sheringham.

Sheringham Tesco - yes-s-sco!!!!!
Never a truer word spoken…
Some people have asked us for some thoughts on what they could say in their letters
backing the plans when they write letters or talk to friends. We’ve found the some of
the following are really important, you might like to consider them:
You’d like a good-value supermarket with the range of groceries you need for your
main shopping trip close to home rather than having to use supermarkets in other towns
A good value store will help families reduce costs
We know local people and visitors, including summer tourists go to food stores
elsewhere. You could talk about how a store would attract these people back to the town
and local stores would benefit as they visit them as well
You would welcome a free car park close to the High Street and this would also attract
new visitors to town
New jobs at the store would be very welcome.
Contact Names and Addresses can be found on

should then explain their views.
