Town Centre Changes

What's a "One shop"?

We used to use that blockbuster cos you could just about park outside. Blackburn road is a real mess. The entrance into Accy and a disgrace to the town.

I think It's a Mini-Market with Beer Wine and Spirits thrown in,could well be the re-siting of Kits shop.:drunk:
 
Whats the point in opening the back up people just drive and park on the pavement down Blackburn road many a time i have been waiting at the bus stop and had to move to let a car pass on the pavement:(

There's pros and cons of course but I suspect that more traffic will lead to more dropping off in the town centre, plus allow people who are passing through to see what Accy has to offer.

If nothing else there's the opportunity for a traffic warden or two?

I think you are on the wrong shop Ken.Mick is talking about the one on the way to Church traffic lights.:confused:
 
This is the Regency Bar this morning. Absolute disgrace.

How come shops round here have to apply for planning permission to fit external shutters yet these clowns can just whack up some ugly steel sheets and make the place look like a ghetto ?

Looks like they are expecting a riot or a football match:D
but it does look a mess
 
I suppose the Commercial is just about big enough for a Wetherspoons.

As for the rest, does Accy have an Oxfam Charity shop? What about 50p shops? Any of those yet? If not, coming soon to your town centre.

Failing that, I suppose at least one of those premises would make an excellent 'Flash Mob' dancing office.
Accy had 50p outlets back in 1979 :rolleyes:
 
It looks like a place in a ghetto :mad:

Which department in the council would I complain to ?

I am sure Cllr Moss can contact the relevant people and find out why they are allowed to make the town look a mess.

Is that something you can find out today Ken?

UUrrrrgghhhh that is horrible saw them putting them up yesterday evening and had horrible visions and now reality. Accy is becoming more uglier by the minute and no doubt set to get worse as more businesses shut down, it'll soon look like a ghetto in all its yukky glory its depressive so far. After being to both blackburn and burnley town centres this week and their footfall is busier and a lot more choice less barren areas - accy is & cant seem to compete with it will seal accys downfall dramactically if the hyndburn council dont do something about it soon, but with the regency looking as it is - i see ghost town [even singing the song] happening already.

Occasionally I have to leave Accyweb to do some work. Such a tedious interruption....

The council can serve what are known as S215 notices on unsightly properties to force the owners to make them look more presentable. An officer from HBC will evaluate the site in question and then it goes to committee for 'sentencing'.

Cllr Peter Clarke is portfolio holder for regeneration and is a good person to start with:

Councillors - Peter Clarke
 
I was hoping such a decent chap as yourself would have made a phone call and got the ball moving on behalf of AccyWeb.
 
I spotted some workmen in the upstairs window of the Regency this afternoon so they are either doing it up or stripping it out
 
I know the guy who DJ`d there on a friday night , he said some weeks they only had 6 customers all night.......:rolleyes: so i doubt its in line for a refit.........
