Representatives from the supermarket Tesco have been meeting with various groups of residents in Ross. These include the Civic Society and the Association of Ross Traders, ART.

After listening to a short presentation from Tesco the members of ART present were able to ask questions and then voted on three options: 1 – this association welcomes Tesco; 2 – this Association will join with others in trying to prevent Tesco opening in Ross; or 3 – this Association has noted Tesco's plans and leaves its members to decide their own views and what actions they want to take.

The members voted in favour of the third option.
