We are having the same problem also where Sainsburys's are planning to build on the outskirts of Erdington High St which will obviously affect trade on the High St, also 400 jobs are being created which seems to be the same amount but out of those jobs only 30% are full-time with 70% part-time (not including self-service checkouts). Birmingham City Council needs to answer to the amount of supermarkets that are applying to be built in the Birmingham area. Mary Portas was taken on by the government to look into the decline in High Streets across the country and the main problems were Supermarkets opening and a lack of parking facilities. We have free parking at the moment but Birmingham City Council are trying to take this away by putting a Road Traffic Order in place. We have also had over 3,000 objections from customers about this particular matter but to no avail. Regards Mr C Fox Dear Sir/Madam,
