Isn't it strange that TDC take notice of ONE COMPLAINT ( https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-devon-57453889 ) and take action but when hundreds complain about something, no notice is taken. PS. Yes, I know it is not Dawlish but Kenton, but still a TDC matter!

@Teignpot :  Yes - for clarity. It was in 2018 thatTeignbridge District Council asked for land to be submitted to them for consideration for development. Totally agree that none of this land has been randomly selected by the council. It is what has been offered to them by the landowners themselves. @HuwMatthews2 - I got the impression that you were bemoaning land being incorrectly ...

I hope that it's understood that all of the proposed sites are ones which the owners themselves (usually so-called farmers) have put forward.  They haven't been randomly selected by "the council".

Not a chance! :) I don't think I would be looked on very kindly by landowners if I gave the game away by giving local authorities advance notice!
