Planning Inspector Christopher Balch is expected to publish his report on the Dawlish Neighbourhood Plan following examination hearing sessions that took place on 23 and 24 April. It is the first Neighbourhood Plan to reach the examination stage in England.
Balch's examination of the Plan focussed on housing growth, the balance between housing and jobs and on protecting the environment. It is anticipated that his informal, non-binding, report of examination will be published by 21 May.
