Fake shops
So there is an empty shop in Accy that has been given a fake front to give the illusion that it is trading, and more like it will follow.
This is the first step towards a totally fake 'market town'. If this mock up concept had a theme, such as 'Trade in Victorian Era', Accy may well attract tourists. It works for Beamish. |
Re: Fake shops
yes but this is costing £100,000 to do
Would it not be better to use this money to help businesses to get started for real like reduced rent for 6 months until the shop is established I think using the money to put up fake shops is stupid and a total waste of money its dead money too as there will be no revenue got from fake shops |

I wasn't aware that a few photos glued to shop windows cost so much.:eek:
I smell 'rip off'. |

So basically a landlord allows his property to go to ruin and the council come along and tidy it up for him. No wonder he's pleased

It was masquerading as some sort of fast food place before. Maybe the owner wouldn't let the council spend the towns money on it if they didn't do as he wanted ? |

Well the idea is ok, but it would be better if the council would have inputed that money in devoloping the Arndale centre to accommodate larger retailors. The Council has nowt to do with the running of the Arndale, they only collect the rates. |
Re: Fake shops
Retlaw, you have to realise that there are a lot of dimly lit bulbs in the town centre.
And you can't put sense into the senseless. |

Could you imagine the hoops someone would have to jump through to get permission to open a good old fashioned chip shop? |
