Thanks The banners are the responsibility of the Town Centre Management company. I've just come back from a dog walk and can see a little TLC is needed. i will alert the necessary people. I'm sure the Town Council will give them any help they need.
Not being funny, but I don't know anything about the marriage arrangements. All I can say is that the existing vehicle needed a lot of work doing to bring it up to standard , and that is what the grant was for.
I don't call 45% a fiasco Bernard. Governments have been elected with less I'm sorry you think taking time to listen to other peoples opinions is a sign of weakness. But Hey Ho, stand for election and sign up to do the work,
Am I the only one who thinks that Dawlish could do with a rest from all this? Everyone could take some time out to reflect on their own thoughts and perhaps more importantly the opinions of people who disagreed with them. There are elections next year, Peter and Ann Large, Pete Cross, Val Mawhood and Bernard can then stand for election and take on the workload of being a town councillor. ...
Just to be clear, Air Show and Carnival got exactly the same financial support from the Town Council this year. We try to be even handed. Our grant to Carnival was specifically to overhaul the float. Obviously, I'm personally not happy about recent events. Who would be?
@ Fred. Im not not technically adept enough to say whether what you suggest is physically feasible - I leave that to others. What I do know is that Natural England played merry hell with suggestions of a small play park in front of the Boathouse, so there would be "issues" over a bandstand.

It is important to the tourist economy too, and helps preserve employment in the town The issue at the Warren is always the conflict between nature preservation and the commercial ...
For those who like the detail, I have reproduced below the paper that the Council voted on at Tuesday's meeting. Apologies for the length, but I didnt want to edit it and be accused of leaving out anything important. Report to Dawlish Town Council, Tuesday 19 August, 2014 Coastal Communities Fund (CCF) Executive Summary of Recommendations That no further work is done ...
Although I obviously agree with Robert about the "driving force" comment, I think it is going too far to call the Gazette coverage biased I think the paper is very careful to always provide balancing comments in their coverage. Yes, the last few months have been rough, but the paper has a job to do in reporting the different views in Dawlish about the proposals. It would have been good if ...
@ZIGGY . I've had an email to say the work has been done. Will try to find time today or tomorrow to walk it again, but sounds like it is ok now. Thanks for highlighting this
