thank you to the person who saved it and has now sent me a copy
This business about SUDS (Sustainable Drainage Systems). I didn't know until about a week ago that developers have an automatic right to connect into already existing pipes. Might that explain the sewage problem in the Secmaton Lane area (more and more houses = more and more people = more and more sewage = existing sewage network more and more not able to cope)? Therefore, as I see it, ...
Don't suppose anyone copied the text by any chance? @Barbarawils68 ?
I have referred on other threads to the Housing and Planning Bill that is presently going through parliament. On Tuesday, certain aspects of it were debated in the House of Commons. Our MP, Anne Marie Morris, spoke on the issue of Community Right of Appeal and Sustainable Drainage Systems (after all we do have a flooding/drainage issue in Dawlish, do we not?).

There is lots of stuff going on in parliament ...
Ooooo........er........ Other landowners/developers had better take note then.
Yes it will be a shame but........ I do not know the people who organised it but I have often thought about the huge amount of pressure they must have been under with regard to it all. I know I wouldn't want that and perhaps, now, neither do they?
Is this used for anything anymore or is it just standing empty?
Number of new homes due to be built in Dawlish over the next years is circa 1000. On DA2 (that's the area northwest of Secmaton Lane, made up mainly but not exclusively of, Gatehouse Farm, Secmaton Farm and Langdon (NHS)) 25% of housing is scheduled to be affordable. 25% of 1000 = 250. Not that far off the 227 figure that you quote. BUT the affordables will not be built all at once. ...
