Families in the affluent market town are left fuming after it was revealed that Greggs has been given permission to open a new bakery within the community.
Residents of the upscale neighborhood were shocked and outraged when they discovered that plans for a second Greggs location had been approved, despite initial concerns over noise pollution and increased foot traffic.
“It’s absolutely absurd,” said local resident Sarah Johnson. “We thought we had left our noisy, crowded high streets behind us in the city. We’re trying to maintain some sense of peace and quiet here.”
The decision has sparked a heated debate among the town’s residents, with many taking to social media to express their discontent.
“I don’t want to have to navigate around screaming children and yapping dogs every time I go for a walk,” posted one disgruntled resident. “This is not what we signed up for when we moved here.”
Greggs has faced backlash in the past over noise pollution issues, with some locations being forced to close early due to complaints from neighbors.
“It’s clear that Greggs is more concerned with their bottom line than the well-being of our community,” added another resident. “We deserve better than a chain store that prioritizes profits over people.”
The town council has released a statement saying they are reviewing the decision and will consider revising it if necessary.
Meanwhile, locals have started a petition to express their disapproval of the new bakery and demand alternative solutions for the community’s baked goods needs.
