Approve Planning Permission for Mimi's Bakehouse Corstorphine

I live in the area and find it unbelievable that the council could even contemplate disallowing something which virtually everybody sees as a positive development. I attended the meeting with council representatives at Corstorphine Library a couple of years ago in which they stated that they wanted the town centre to catch up with other areas such as Bruntsfield which have a thriving cafe culture. Corstorphine may be some way from that, but it can only achieve it if the council drops its dogmatism and adopts a more flexible and creative apprpoach to the problem. Giving Mimi's whatever official stamp of approval it needs would be a step in the right direction.

As a resident of Corstorphine I would highly recommend that this permission is granted as I think it would be an excellent and well used addition to the area that is ending up with more and more empty units and losing it's appeal as a place to wander around and frequent.

If councils say no to everything, they end up with nothing. Mimi's would be an asset.

Just what corstorphine high street needs!!!, will be such an amazing addition, sorely needed

Sounds like a great addition to an ailing centre!

Fantastic opportunity for corstorphine to become a destination high street & desperately needed . Would also attract other good quality retailers.

Will be a great asset to the area

totally confused as to why this is not a retail outlet. This is so stupid and irrational

This is exactly the type of business cord torching needs as it will draw more people & encourage them to shop locally. I can't understand why permission would be refused.

Lovely food

Would good to have Mimi's in Corstorphine, so busy in leith can't always get a table.

Corstorphine is in desperate need of quality businesses and a good quality cafe.

Fully support Mimi's Bakehouse to open in Corstorphine. It's an established, successful and most importantly local family business. This should be encouraged. Many high streets are dying a death and Corstorphine is no different. The popularity of this business could markedly increase footfall into the high street on all days of the week and encourage retail units which have been closing to move into the area.

Minus would be an asset to the area. I live in Corstorphine Bank Drive directly opposite and would love Mimis as oppossed to another charity shop or even worse an abandoned shop for years.

Would be an asset to the area..

I would like to support a local Edinburgh business expanding within the city. It would also be great to have a well known top end name to attract large numbers of people to the shopping district. Too many pubs here, not enough cafes.

I think Mimi's would be a welcome asset to the Corstorphine area, wishing you all the best.

Would love to see Mimis in Corstorphine.

Mimi's would bring some much needed quality eating establishment to Corstorphine sand would encourage people from outlying areas to visit Corstorphine helping the local economy.

I live in the Murrayfield area and would love to see this Bakery open up - although I'm sure it wont have a positive effect on my bank account :)
