General Discussion
And finally this information regarding the Redrow site, Shutterton Park (aka Warren Grove) which was raised during public discussions after the DTC Plannning Committee meeting at The Manor House last Thursday: A Redrow representative addressed those present to advise that its plans for an on-site care home (part of the outline planning application won on appeal in 2013) have been dropped. ...
@Barbarawils68 For balance and the avoidance of doubt, below are my personal (and publicly available) comments made to Teignbridge in August last year in respect of the 35-home application at Secmaton Lane (DA2 development area 5) ref 14/01577/MAJ: 'This Dawlish application site falls within the newly adopted Local Plan area DA2, to the north-west of Gatehouse Lane. The site is on ...
@Barbarawils68 In Part 1 of this discussion thread you asked whether the application for the Langdon Hospital land site (DA2 development area 4) had come before Dawlish Town Council's Planning Committee. I can advise that it has not as the application file had not been received. I can also advise that the DA2 Gatehouse Farm application (DA2 development area 2) - which has ...
Is it just my imagination or have there been more bonfires than usual recently? Gary Taylor
Although I have yet to look at the detail it would seem that a bun fight is developing over who should get to build the care home. So neither this scheme nor that submitted last month for land in DA2 at Gatehouse Farm conform to the Draft Development Framework Plan - about which the public is currently invited to respond. Gary Taylor
For information, below Dawlish Town Council's response to the NW Secmaton Lane Draft Development Framework Public Consultation item on last Wednesday's meeting agenda: 1 the infrastructure, particularly the link road, needs to be constructed before the houses are built; 2 Secmaton Lane must not be used for any construction traffic or any access ...
But just in case I got that quote out of context he also said yesterday "the builders know where they can't build..." Seems that nobody has told him what's been going on regarding Dawlish of late. Just four days to go to make Dawlish voices heard WRT to the NW Secmaton Lane public consultation. Deadline Friday. Gary Taylor
Thanks for the clip, Flo. Seems that the Teignbridge Local Plan model is now going to be used by our government to beat recalcitrant councils over the head. Make of that what you will - but it was interesting to hear DC apparently supporting the Local Plan as it now stands. "The plans are good..." he says. Gary Taylor
Very interesting quote from the Local Plan Inspector, Ken. But the number of houses in DA2 was increased by 350 in September 2012 NOT because of viability reasons, but because our Dawlish TDC ward councillors preferred them to be there rather than at DA1 (aka Shutterton Park, aka Warren Grove). Indeed, senior planning officer Simon Thornley advised AGAINST moving the allocation from DA1 to ...
Lynne, When it comes to SANGS it is hard to know just who has who over a barrel - however it is difficult to imagine that Redrow would not have preferred to have found 6.24 hectares of land to have put forward for SANGS themselves rather than cough up a not inconsiderable amount of money to TDC for the priviledge UNLESS there was already some sort of firm agreement. And on the ...
