In March last year, 70 policemen and 40 bailiffs were called in to remove protesters from the roof of the building, and then abandoned, in an operation worth £ 60,000.
Planning meetings with Bristol City Council attended the protesters, some of which are threatened direct action if the application is successful.
Over 1000 people signed a petition against the store opening and the Council has received 2,449 postcards objected. Forty companies in the region has also signed a letter condemning the proposed opening.
Stephen William Flew Williams, Liberal Democrat local MP, which was set up a meeting Tesco and activists who have been convicted problems yesterday, as a result of "a tiny minority of idiots." He added that there is an active minority against the store, but others welcomed it.
The representative of Tesco condemned the riots, adding: ". We will work to re-open as soon as possible to continue to provide services in Stokes Croft"
