Perhaps the town council could set up a citizens questions/councillors answers forum? To register questions, the name and address of the questioner must be given? Questioners must be registered on the election register (so that the likelilhood of made up posting names is considerably lowered because they can be checked?). Name (but not address) of questioner to be made public? Even more ...
@Andylufc - no snow so far ( perhap all the hot air down here is keeping it at bay? )
The planning documents relating to the application for football pitches at Warren Farm are now available to read online. Just click on the link I have given above and then click on associated documents which can be found to the bottom left hand side of the webpage. Kaz - ah! so perhaps that football pitch at Langdon Hospital is what Tesco/Dawlish Town (as was) had their eyes on? We will ...
So, if, just say, if, the Tesco building a store at Sandy Lane had happened then I imagine that Dawlish United would now be looking for a new pitch (pitches?) somewhere else as that land at Warren Farm would now be designated as being part of the proposd coastal park SANGS, and a football stadium over at Langdon/Secmaton might have well and truly messed up the amount of land available for house ...
yes. thanks for pointing that out @roberta . that there were two football teams at time can be confusing. i knew it was dawlish united/warren farm and i remember also tesco saying that they had been looking for sites for a new football stadium (complex as well i think it was) for dawlish town but i was never sure that they had found somewhere. did that ever get as far as a planning application ...
Teignbridge have just gotten back to say IT are looking into it. In the meantime I thought I would do a search on the name and address of the applicant as shown on that link I've given. The result would suggest it was the football side that put the application in. Football - Teignbridge District Council www.teignbridge.gov.uk/article/719/Football - Similar to Football - ...
Thank you Mcjrpc I've now managed to find the planning details concerning the football pitch at Warren Farm. Planning reference 07/02022/Maj This link should take you to the webpage concerning it. http://gis.teignbridge.gov.uk/TeignbridgePlanningOnline/Results.aspx?Type=Application&Refval=07/02022/MAJ Unfortunately when I click on associated documents (see bottom left hand of ...
I am not aware of any stance except the no sale one. Whether TDC could compensate him at a commercial rate (how would that be determined?) I don't know, but I would doubt it. If the land they want is designated as agricultual land then I strongly suspect that it would be that value they would give him, that they would have to give him. Remember that TDC's money is public money. I'm pressing ...
@Mcjprc - my answer to all three of your questions is "I don't know". There is a limit to my general and public knowledge of matters relating to Warren Farm and an even greater limit to my knowledge of the Weeks' family personal affairs. I can only suggest that you and JC and anyone else who wishes to have answers to questions of a more personal nature, and that I cannot possibly answer, ...
What % of the land that TDC want as a coastal park is grade 1 agricultual land? The best I can do to answer that is this: Warren Farm is 50 acres. TDC is looking at 51 acres in total for the coastal park. 57.3% (15.3hectares) of the site is grade 1 agricultual land.
