So if you decided to try late night opening, you, and the other shops on there, have no access to any toilets?
You should mail the papers.
We don't want anymore empty shops.
Scandalous.

Who's the landlord of those shops?
Not the council?

I can't say I'm too suprised.
Although I hope you don't, if you and other businesses on there, do decide to move to a town with more accessible facilities, we'll know where to lay the blame for yet more empty retail units.

Re: Town Centre Changes
I would imagine so, presumably you pay business rates, same as a householder paying council tax, you are entitled to some facilities! Not sure who has jurisdiction over the town centre, best to ask our esteemed leader, or maybe even the Mayor?
