I think the 'EXTRA' moniker is only used when a bung was paid, to ensure planning consent was given.



'This means the decision in favour of the store made by Hyndburn Council’s Planning Committee in June will stand and a further inquiry will not be needed.'

'Before then it needs to conclude an agreement with Hyndburn Council to pump nearly £1M into the regeneration of Accrington town centre.'
All systems go for new Tesco - Accrington Observer



Before people get too giddy about the million quid, just remember that the new roundabout near the Britannia pub in Ossy cost over £700,000.

So when the tumbleweed is blowing through the deserted streets, of the once thriving town, a million pounds isn't going to fund that many flower towers.
