           Comments:
           - Committee felt that Tesco should provide
           - A visibility splay for pedestrians/cyclists at the access from
             Cambridge Road, and
           - A pedestrian access at the main vehicular entrance.
           - Committee noted a reduction in car parking and left this matter
             to the Planning Officers' professional view.
           - Committee was unhappy with the new staff location as it could
             encourage staff displaced from the staff car park to park in The
             Rowans. In addition customers could also be tempted to park in
             The Rowans.
