Sound? No
Duty to co-operate? Not specified
The council is ignoring many views of the locals, the main one being that Hockley is a VILLAGE.
Hockley does not require a supermarket of the size suggested. A large supermarket will not support the current retail units in the village, it will swamp them and drive them out. There is not enough parking for a supermarket of the size suggested and congestion would be made even worse than it has become since the opening of Sainsburys.
