I agree that the town council's planning committee has no powers to grant planning permission (they can only make recommendations). I know of one HUGE factor that Teignbridge planning councillors will use when making a decision, and that is planning policies (both local and national). If they choose to ignore such policies and get swayed by public opinion (another factor) and oppose ...
So.......are you moaning about people moaning who you think ought not to be moaning?
So..... if you don't cast a vote you have no right to moan if you do cast a vote but are on the losing side you have no right to moan (mustn't be a bad loser old chap, not cricket, what ho) if you cast a vote and are on the winning side you should have no need to moan Is that what is being suggested?
This application will be discussed at this coming Thursday's (30th November) town council's planning committee meeting. Click on link below to see the other planning apps on the agenda. http://www.dawlish.gov.uk/edit/uploads/2300_1669725597.pdf

I am just unhappy (extremely) about the wording that has been used when describing the outcome. It was/is no more 'overwhelming' than it was the verdict of 'the majority of the people in Dawlish' (which was another, previous, misleading statement).
The tom tom drums are telling me another one has resigned. Anyone else heard anything along similar lines?
Depends on how you define overwhelming and how the figures are interpreted. A total of 644 respondents in 2014 took part in the consultation concerning whether or not to have a playpark on the lawn. Of that number, 430 were in favour of there being a playpark on the lawn - somewhere. And of that 430 - 164 didn't want a playpark near the bandstand. Whilst 214 were not in favour of a ...
