The report is detailed and can now be read on the Town Council website, just look down the left hand menu and click there. There's an open meeting of the Town Council on Thursday evening at 7pm at the Manor House, to debate the report and agree action to be taken. Bob
@J.Warrener I agree about persons living within the ward, but the VfD candidate, Howard ALMOND, lives just across the Exeter Road and is probably within 100 metres of the boundary of the Central Ward, so perhaps make an exception this time? Bob
Short answer is no. Proximity will do. Bob
@goldenlad & karateka Now that I am a Town Councillor I'm a bit more careful of what I say in public in case it gets me in trouble, but I hope I can give you some news to cheer you after your increasingly unhappy comment. Meetings held with Network Rail have programmed the replacement of the station footbridge ( a lift off and replace job) next Spring, after the winter gales, and it's possible ...
The next Town COuncil meeting is on Wednesday evening 13th July starting at 7pm. You are welcome to attend and make your own judgement about the capabilities of the present Council. It's better done ther than from the comfort of the fireside.

Hello Hells Bells Just taking a quick snack between canvassing and I think you were pointing a finger at me when saying 'at least one of them is a member here'. So, perhaps I should admit that my pseudonym refers to my days of scrubbing the quarterdeck of Britain's last battleship, while doing national service. Perhaps that's what drew me to Dawlish and the sea. I certianly didn't bargain for a ...
@boot strap bill Dawlish Community Trust was asked to press for improvements to Dawlish Station by the Town Council, and we have established that: Network Rail is planning to replace the footbridge over the track towards the end of this new financial year. For some time Teignbridge planners were being demanding over the Listed status of the station building until Network Rail pointed out that ...
I called in for a cup of tea and piece of cake and sat among a busload of pensioners who were really enjoying the shelter from the breeze, but able to sit out and watch all that was passing trade. I wish that Richard Bland would spend time with you doing that and talking about how that terrace could look if each proprietor took as much trouble to keep their frontage neat and attractive. I'm not ...
