@Purrrrfect - I think 5 people have to sign it initially and then it gets 'authorised' or something like that. Which would account for what you found.

Roads are pot holed, schools and Drs ...
Now on Eyes of Dawlish. Thank you.
I don't have a fb account so could someone who does please post about this thread and its content on Eyes of Dawlish.

Have been contacted by a town councillor who doesn't have an account for this website asking me to let all know that this issue will be raised as a matter of urgency at next town council meeting in April.
