General Discussion

Hi all -T'was only going to be a matter of time before I posted on this new thread. Yesterday (Monday 12th) TDC's Overview and Scrutiny Committee met. Amongst other items on the agenda was a report concerning TDC's infrastructure delivery plan for the next three years. Included in this plan was the Dawlish Coastal Park SANGS at what is presently Warren Farm. Now, we all know how ...

Except that..........Daw Vale was publicly owned ie by Devon County Council. Privately owned and run retirement/nursing homes now that's another matter entirely ( they cost more of course as there needs to be a profit in it for whoever runs it).

TDC need this SANGS in place so that they can then give planning permission for more new houses to be built. More new houses = more CIL (Commuity Infrastructure Levy) ...

This is what I've been told: The 5 chosen are:  Carolyn Ballard, Christine Marsh, Chris Swanwick, Francine Tullis and Martin Wrigley.   A place was kept open for somebody with retail, commerce and business sector experience.  John Simon Principle of Dawlish Community College will be co-opted on to the steering group to advise on education aspects of the plan when needed.

Wonder if we'll see any familiar faces?
