Lynne, I agree with you and wholeheartedly support Mr Weeks. MC made his comment on this thread, which was not the time or place. I did my brief response but am dealing with the issue away from this forum.
Yep because you and MC don't want it there!
The irony of Michal Clayson's last comment on 14th December at 21.27 really does take the gold medal. I have sent MC a private message so he knows exactly why I make this statement and those who he talked to, very indiscreetly, during the consultation for the pavillion will also know why I make this statement.
Good bump!
Well said Lynne. I find the silence from Dawlish Town Coucil quite disturbing given we have a retired architect/planning expert on the council who is in a good position to advise us.
@Micheal Clayson, I am not in anyway trying to make my colleagues look bad and I really do not know why you would say that. I think all our councillors work very hard and attend as many meetings as they can. This started from a post by Lynne when she made a perfectly valid point about the timing of meetings, particularly those linked to the NP, so your comments regarding an argument between Dorian ...
And as such I am now able to attend more meetings in the months I am not working but the months I do work I work full time. However, even in my working months I attend as many meetings as I am able.
Michael's post is plausible but does not detract from the fact that many of the additional F&GP meetings, including those for the budget sub-committee, are held during the day. That is a fact that can be checked by looking at council records.
@ Dorian , define dismaI? I present my apologies to the Town Clerk with a valid reason and my attendance across the board stands up to scrutiny, which cannot be said for every councillor. I don't see you sitting on the council and giving your time, or do you?
Well it isn't astro physics! I attend all the meetings I am able to when not working, ie, being paid by my employer to be at work. When doing voluntary work I make sure it compliments my duties as a councillor to enable me to attend meetings, but as a paid employee I have to attend work to meet the employer's demands. Those councillors who are retired or unemployed do not have the restrictions ...
