Background (Preamble):
No Tesco Eastside’ is a group opposed to the building of a new Tesco on Eastside (formally Boots Island) in Nottingham near Sneinton.

These are our basic points of objection, a more detailed version can be read via our letter of objection here.

1. The threat to the local retail environment
2. A detrimental increase in traffic
3. Design flaws
4. The economic and social impact on local residents

6. A sequential approach to other more appropriate sites has not been taken
