PS Just to be clear. The 900 new homes are in addition to the 375 homes presently with planning permission to be built (124 at Swan's Rise and 251 on Mr G's ex cornfield - see those separate threads I've recently started). So, 900 + 375 and we are looking at circa 1300 new homes being built over the next 20 years.
Yep! From what I can gather it seems that Teignbridge District Council issued a press release and the result was that article. I wonder how many of us in Dawlish have actually been consulted about this figure of 900? So how was this figure arrived at and who agreed it? Some people in Dawlish might want more than 900 new homes, some might want less. Who knows? Have we been asked? It would seem ...

Just thought I post this reminder given that I mentioned in my posting above that the draft Dawlish Plan (which proposes what should be built and where over the next 20 years) will be publicly examined by an independent examiner on Monday 23rd April and Tuesday 24th April at The Strand Church, Dawlish. If you cannot make those day time hearings there will be an opportunity for individuals to ...
@Paul , When you refer to "the bottom of the town" - which bit do you mean?
I think now is the time for those who would like such establishments to be located in Dawlish/the Warren to make their voices known. And the reason I think now is the time is that the Dawlish local plan will be up for examination by an independent examiner the week after next and I know from looking at the plan that there is nothing in it indicating that there should be fast food outlets in the ...
Well what I had in my mind was this. That there has been many a comment on various threads on this website about how Sainsbury's has had a negative impact on the trading of the town centre shops. So, I was just thinking along similar lines in terms of the impact that a Macdonalds or any of the other food outlets that you mention above might have on the town centre eateries.
