Waitrose car park ?
23 Feb 2014

Waitrose car park in Exeter is patrolled by a private parking firm you may not be aware but your reg no is booked in and out watch out for the womble with the handheld PC wearing a green hi-vis. This wont be the only Teignbridge car park going private as several more are earmarked for sale as development oppertunities.

Do you not find it funny that when the railway line needs repairing every man and his dog appears on the scene within a couple of days. Millions of pounds worth of men and machines from all over the country with money no object. However when a stretch of the A379 needs resurfacing it takes for ever to plan, its done as cheap as posible with as little as posible and is then ignored for years. ...

TDC planning dept at its best, they should arrested and locked up for allowing it. Ask for Eric Pickles the loony behind all this unproven need development he should be sacked and forced to live on benifits street

Devon County Council stated the other week that the bill for repairing Devons road network would be around £750 million. This is due to years of neglect in the past and diversion of funds into other projects like stupid cycle paths and building unwanted houses at Cranbrook. They are now talking about moving out of County Hall because the upkeep is around £1.5 million a year. What they fail to ...

If there new houses the windows wont be big enough to let much light in anyway. Wooden shacks dont have big windows as they let the heat out, and the developers have to consider thermal efficiency etc. Cant understand why anyone would waste money buying one may as well buy a mobile home on the Warren.

@Lynne you know as well as i do how these things are dealt with at TDC. everything will be decided behind closed doors and the general public will only be informed when someone like millwoods or our mate Gerald from shutterton park submit a planning appliction. by that time its to late to do anything about it.

The biggest change will be the building of more houses in its place, public facilities are no longer on the agenda as they cost to much to run. Dont forget that Tesco wont be far behind either

Central government have today told councils they must NOT charge for sandbags Teignbridge council however as usual serve up a double wammy a) No sandbags in Dawlish b) Charges as stated above by Michael Once again Mr Jeremy Christophers fails in his duty to the rate payers, but won't resign or even comment

How much do TDC get from national government for every new house built was it £10,000 each plus any section 106 money they can squeeze in addition. I doubt they are going to refuse any such planning requests when they have peoples farms to buy in order to cover up thier past mistakes
