Just come back from a relaxing walk.
Yes it was 2016 not 2014. Getting old - time merges. I have found this thread http://www.dawlish.com/thread/details/45050 and there are two others as well. I think that back in 2014 the question posed was along the lines of Do you want a playpark on the lawn? As the majority of those who responded said yes (I don't know the figures in favour) then that was why in 2016 when a ...
In 2104 the main focus for the consultation was about the proposal to build the so called arts centre on the lawn, you know, the one that looked like an armadillo! This was followed by a questionnaire which, on its first iteration, was full of loaded questions, (a little bit like the last questionnaire) but as that went to the full council changes were made to make it more impartial. The vast ...
@Brooklyn Bridge (23 june 11:12hrs). well said, but how many times in the past has the dawlish council just done what ever it pleased. even when they have sought the residents input? I see we no longer have anyone for the council participating on this forum. In my opinion the gwr £19,212 may or may not have something todo with the placing of the play park for the under 8's.
Having a playpark on the lawn - a potted history Okay, so........back in 2014 (I think it was) there was a public consultation about whether or not there should be a playpark on the lawn. Not sure if there was anything online but definitely there was a public consultation event in the town somewhere. Both Linda Petherick and Margaret Swift were town councillors at the time so perhaps they ...
Has there been a vote on this issue if not why not? Should there be a vote by the residents of Dawlish? And do it like an election with votes submitted at the Manor. Just have two questions on the ballot. 1. Should the proposed playground be located outside the tourist office? 2. Or no! And hoping that the results would not be fixed in favour. Could anyone on this forum give any advice ...
There is some S106 money via the Sainsbury's development, as well I believe. That is time limited and must be spent by next year/year after? I believe the GWR money also has a similar time by when it must be spent. Would look it all up but it is such a gorgeous evening that I am now going out into the garden. If someone from the working group should read this and know the exact ...
People have to drive or walk to the new countryside park along exeter road. Why can't the playpark at Sandy Lane be expanded to cater for those that want to use it using the same method to get to the play park as they now do to get to the countryside park. There would then be no need to interfer with the lawn are of the town. How many more play areas does this town need?
