Will The Strand work be done in time for the Party in the Park 2013 on the spring bank holiday (25-27/05/2013)? http://www.dawlish.com/event/details?eventdateid=2908

Found this concerning movement in and out of Teignbridge by social housing tenants via Devon Home Choice. It is from a document presented to TDC's Overview and Scrutiny Committee in January of this year. "Registering only those with a local connection Analysis of Teignbridge statistics shows that approximately 20% of lets of social housing through DHC to date have gone to people moving ...

Well now, if the allegations you make on another thread were to be true then the issue of there not being enough social housing to go around could be resolved if open market housing were to get bought up by social landlords and then rented out at affordable rents (80% of market rents). Might be one way of reducing the housing benefit bill........

@HuwMatthews2 As you say yourself it is only hearsay. Which makes me wonder why you didn't check out its veracity before you posted what you did. You write " I expect the same thing to happen in Dawlish. A few months ago we were approached by a London Borough Council who wanted to a) buy our stock or failing that b) lease our stock en masse or failing that c) form a partnership with us ...

I've been on both sides of the fence - private landlord and in the social sector. Wherever it's been no one likes paying money to the LL be it private or social. The big questions are: What is the alternative to private landlords? Homelessness? There isn't enough social housing to go round. Should we build more?

There are 'Home Choice' schemes right across the country. Many, if not most, counties have gone that way. I heard today (and would like to stress that this is only hearsay) that 100s of houses in the new build developments around Exmouth have been bought up by Liverpool City Council and another midlands/northern city council (whose name escapes me - possibly Manchester). I expect the ...

@stephen15 t There's this too.  http://www.dawlish.com/thread/details/1644 Don't know what happened to Justin Rushworth.  Listing is the remit of the Dept of Culture, Media and Sport.  Perhaps a call to them would establish their  current position?  Happy to add support if needed. There was also this last year. http://dawlish.com/thread/details/22360 Yes, it's currently an ...

Remember 'Mary Queen of the High Street'.. and the chance of her coming to Dawlish to sort it out. Thought it was interesting last night on Channel 4, she tried to get Margate going...well from the outset they didnt want her help! ..but its a happy ending, If you didnst see it here it is, its a good prog. Wonder if the Strand was adapted in the 'same' way ...what would happen,.. ...
