Sorry Mrjcpc, I have been on holiday and then had to look after my 87 year old mother who had an operation. That is not an excuse but a factual explanation of my absence. I have many examples of residents being given mis-leading information but, more to the point, I was at the meeting for Councillors and chamber of trade on 16 June when a councillor stated that the proposed pavilion was only two ...
Beelebub2000-flitflot, you have hit the nail on the head! Well done, and I hope that does not sound patronising! It was claimed by one councillor that the lawn is a big green empty space not much used. He went on to say "how long can people sit and look at an empty space". Clearly this Councillor has not stayed long enough to see what you and I have seen; people enjoying the open space of the ...
You live up to my expectations Mrs C and still hold first place as the nastiest poster on this forum.
Mcjrpc I wasn't saying anything of the kind, as I think you know only too well.
@Mrs C, you are absolutely right about mis-information being given out. Many people were told that the proposed new building was only twice the size of the current bandstand. When people found out the truth they were horrified and started to lodge objections. Views differ on the use of pre-prepared objection letters, but when many people have the same points to raise it is accepted that ...
@Mrs C, I do not understand how you can accuse the Gazette of being biased over the developments for the lawn when the sheer volume of the objections logged with TDC are now over the 200 mark compared to the half dozen letters in support. You appear to be the one out of step with the majority of the people of Dawlish. BTW, as for your skills in proof reading, you need to learn how to use the ...
Mrs C once again you demonstrate that you know nothing about my family, for which I am eternally grateful, because if you did you would know that anyone who knows my husband would never ever describe him as a bully. He is in fact the exact opposite of a bully. Dorian, a bully will bully anyone and everyone, no one is immune or exempt. Bullies behave as they do for a variety of reasons but ...
@Councillor Petherick both my 87 year old mother, and brother post on this forum and both are bright intelligent people with their own views, which I have no control over and would not wish to exert control over. As for the remark about bullying from Mrs C, the reason I resigned from Voices for Dawlish was precisely because of the bullying from the small minority in that group. If you do not agree ...
@Mcjrpc I was unable to attend the meeting last night but, from the report I got after the meeting, what michael clayson says above would appear to be accurate. However, I was also told that at the end of the meeting the council voted to continue with the planning application for the proposed cultural arts pavilion so it really is a confused picture.
And this is a very important meeting for the people of Dawlish.
