I think it is 12 in total. I am trying to get confirmation (or otherwise) of that number. I share your cynicism by the way @Cassandra . I will be gobsmacked if, planning permission having been granted, that somewhere along the line in the future the developer doesn't then plead lack of viability to TDC planning department and the number of Affordable Homes and/or bungalows gets ...
Let's hope it goes to plan then, but I won't hold my breath until I see them actually built (being slightly cynically minded!) Also, how many are planned for this development?
Well, well, well! would you believe it! I've just taken a look at the recently posted online Design and Access statement for this development and amongst other things, it says this. " Bungalows are sited to the upper slopes and to the east adjacent to existing bungalow properties. Small distinct areas are shown on the site plan designated for Retirement Housing use. These include housing which ...

And another thing is that an increasing elderly population may need, to a greater or lesser extent, some support with their day to day living. Which says to me an increase in the need for care workers either within a care/nursing home or visiting people at home. These are low paid jobs are they not? So where will all these workers come from and where will they live given that according to TDC ...
Builders don't like building bungalows because they can't cram enough of them into a small space like they can with flats & town houses. Too many retirement flats suffer from rip-off fees & high service charges which don't always end when the owner is no longer around. What older people want are freehold homes on one level which are easy to maintain & within easy reach of essential services. Not ...
The planning application for the 201 homes at Secmaton Farm is on the agenda for Dawlish Town Council's planning committee meeting being held on Thursday 9th December. These are the town councillors who sit on the town council planning committee should you wish, prior to the meeting, to let them know your thoughts on this application. Councillor Lin Goodman-Bradbury (Chairman) ...
So, according to TDC we have a rapidly increasing elderly population who "need homes that people can live in independently for longer". In that case then why isn't more accommodation suited for the elderly getting built? I know that care homes and nursing homes get factored into Local Plans but not all elderly people end up living in them. If TDC recognises that elderly people also need homes ...
