@The Observer re your post above dated 15th March. @ November 2018 there was £68,195 and 41 pence left of the just over £200,000 S106 Sainsbury money. This money has to be spent by 4th March 2021. If not spent by that time then any money left over has to be returned to Sainsbury's.
Who pays the taxes in this town? How many dogs do the councilors own? Our council taxes keep going up (we got our notice today). Are we just paying for holidaymakers to have the pleasure of our beaches? Why can't there be a time factor such as dogs allowed before 9 am and after 6 pm. wouldn't that be a good compromise. This is ridiculous. Why do we keep having to be inconvenienced for visitors, ...
Wasn't sure if everyone was aware the signs on the beaches around here have been/are being changed. The old notice allowing dogs on certain beaches usually stopped 1st May each year, now it will be 1st April. Obviously there are parts of certain beaches were people are allowed to walk their dogs all year round, but they are normally the parts where the tide comes in first. Who uses the beaches ...
How is this new job being funded? From the minutes of last week's (6th March) Dawlish Town Council meeting: PROPOSED EVENTS, PROJECTS AND TOURISM OFFICER Members considered the draft job description for the proposed Events, Projects and Tourism Officer.

See below extract from minutes of full Dawlish Town Council meeting held last week (6th March). A letter had been received from Teignbridge’s Planning Department regards the preliminary enquiry to the suggestion of siting a playpark near to the Tourist Information Centre on The Lawn. The response was such that if the height was no more than 4m and curtilage was less than 200 cubic metres ...
Thanks. I'll ask one of our district councillors for an explanation then.
No idea - but it would appear that Teignbridge has allocated funds for a play park which would suggest they believe one may be coming forward in the not too distant future?
@maki1 - is this £75k (S106) money the amount that is presently left from the £200,000 S106 money that Sainsbury's handed over to TDC to be spent on things related to Dawlish town centre as part of the planning permission granted back in 2008/9?
Teignbridge have approved an allocation of £75K in their recently approved budget for 'provision for Dawlish play space flagship provision (S106)'. Bid44 - top of page 4 of the below link https://democracy.teignbridge.gov.uk/documents/s3342/Report%20app%207%20Capital%20Programme.pdf
From what I understand, that even if we wanted a playpark, even if we had a public vote for it, even if it was successful....do we still have the funding available? As I understand section money is now expired.
