Cheadle and Gatley Lib Dems are moving

An application has been submitted to the Council to convert the launderette at 78 Church Road, by Gatley Green, to a take-away/pizza delivery.
As usual, I won’t comment on this as, were I to come out for or against at this stage, I might not be able to participate in taking the decision if it comes before the councillors. However, both Pam and I are concerned about having too many take-aways and fast food places in our villages. There are provisions in our planning rules to stop that happening, though there’s a debate to be had on whether they go far enough.
You can view the application here. As there are already seven objections, the application will either be rejected by the planning officers, or will come to Cheadle Area Committee to be considered by councillors.

Not another B****Y… !
Yes – the shop needs ‘new life’, but, please, not another takeaway. Gatley already has an ‘odour’ to it !
I agree with the comment from Dave Cook, how many takeaways do we need in Gatley. From my experience I would not eat from any of the ones we already have. Gatley is becoming a village of Takeaways and Ladies Hairdresers, I would rather have had a Tesco.
I agree with the above. Enough choice already for the people of Gatley. Time to stop this onslaught of takeaways in the village
I agree with the above comments. Between Cheadle & Gatley we have more charity shops, hairdressers and eateries than other types of retail outlets put together!
