Lisa, you said, " No doubt tickets are not intended to be transferable so that more income is raised ." You have hit the nail bang on the head. I did try and explain early on in this debate that there is a difference between OFF STREET parking (car parks) and on street parking. Just as there is a difference between OFF STREET local authority owned car parks and car parks owned by Tesco, ...

No doubt tickets are not intended to be transferable so that more income is raised. Not a bad thing so long as it is spent on public works or amenities and not on pay rises for local authority fat cats.

Let's be honest...it's not really a pond....it's a puddle. It's not a perfect situation but if that is one's main gripe in Dawlish to post about I say count your blessings. It's nothing a pair of wellies (or small planks of wood or stepping stones....be proactive!) can't overcome until it either dries out or is sorted out. When local authority money is tight it can be no surprise that there are ...

Awful lot of scaffolding going up. Thought it would be easier just to bring in a large catapillar unit on a barge with a jack hammer on it to take it down, than faffing about picking at it.

The letter raises some interesting points and ends with saying that Cllr Rosalind Prowse is trying to get TDC to conduct a paper ballot. If you wish to express your thoughts to Cllr Prowse on what she is trying to achieve this is how you can do it: by letter to her c/o The Manor House, Dawlish or ...

According to those minutes there was a Council meeting on Wednesday 14th July, that timing is clearly wrong, does nobody check these things? Anyway, the consultation was flawed, no doubt about that, and it will be a travesty if this park is built on the lawn.

I have just read through the minutes of those three full council meetings and cannot find anywhere any minute with regard to recorded votes concerning the playpark. I therefore have no idea which councillors were in favour and which not. However, I see in the minutes of full council meeting held in September of last year that Cllr Terry Lowther had it minuted "that his personal opinion to the ...

Hhere are the minutes of the full council meeting held on 6th July last year when the play park issue was debated and voted on http://www.dawlish.gov.uk/edit/uploads/2092_577481209.pdf and these minutes (see below) of the full council meeting held 14th July last year have more info (including why the playpark couldn't be built on the site of the piazza - it would cost too much). ...
