What Redrow meeting is this? Is it public? BTW I understand that in the first phase of their development comprising 90 dwellings only three will be two bed houses ( 2 x bed I see as starter homes). Is the demand for two bed starter homes so low then that they only feel the need to build 3? I also understand that one of these three 2x beds has already been sold, back in July, off plan. The ...
Two cases in point. I am right in saying, am I not, that the Sandpiper housing estate down at the Warren actually started off life back in 2008(ish) as outline planning consent for a retiree care home of some kind. And then there's Peppermint Park, again at the Warren. Originally outline planning for a retirement home of some kind was granted (based on the fact that the one planned for ...
A point to bear in mind about care homes and Dawlish is this: There are presently two planning applications that have been submitted that include building a care home for the elderly of some description in the DA2 area (DA2 = Secmaton/Gatehouse/Langdon hospital area).

You will see that the median house price in Dawlish in 2014 was £185,000 This is 7.4 times your salary if you earn £25,000 pa And is 13.2 times your salary if you are on a minimum ...
"but must be affecting all users and can only lead to the lane being less safe." So some might say that is even more reason then that the lane should not be open to site traffic. Admittedly other heavy traffic may need to use it every now and then (eg delivery vehicles) but I think "every now and then" is the operative phrase.
Am I misunderstanding something here or is it being suggested that people's private driveways should become public refuges for pedestrians and cyclists.?
There is an article on page 5 of this week's Gazette headlined "Infrastructure must come first, say horrified councillors". It is a report on TDC's Planning Committee's discussions concerning the planning application for a residential development adjacent to Hill Drive and Secmaton Lane and whether or not construction traffic should be allowed to use Secmaton Lane to access/egress the ...
