Just a reminder Private Clarence Henry Crook will be remembered on Tuesday 17th March St Gregory's starting at 12 noon Thank you for the photographs Huw.  They will be collected today.  Much appreciated

@Dorian .  I'm at a loss to know how I or any councillor can help with the issue of the float ownership other than to tell you that it does not belong to the council.  I respect that observer has a clear understanding that the council gave a grant at some point in the past with a condition that the carnival group should let other groups also use the float. That may be confirmed in a grant letter ...

The Council does not own the float,  it does not appear on our list of assets and it should be there if it is council property. The Council has only seen accounts to October 2013, we are told that their Accountant has not yet completed the next set of accounts Late items for discussion are not updated on the Agenda as legally it cannot be altered once the summons has been issued.  ...

I saw the sketch plan, it might best be described as a pretty picture showing a generic bandstand in the same location as currently.  A location plan rather than detailed design proposals. When we discussed with TDC making a bid to the Coastal Community Fund they stated that they were not able to do so.  The plans were nowhere near the level of detail required, nor had there been the ...

There were no plans in any meaningful sense of the word.  Sketch might be more accurate I'm afraid the suggestion that anything more than that had been done is inaccurate.  No technical reports. No architectural drawings, no environmental assessments.   Nada However, if TDC can be persuaded to ever convene the working party,  those involved can take those very basic drawings and all ...

The working group is convened by Teignbridge, the fact that it has not met for almost a year demonstrates how low a priority improving the Lawn is for them,   That was why it fell to the Town Council to seize the opportunity of the CCF funding scheme last year, and why we had to work so hard to get a scheme drawn up in weeks I hope TDC can be persuaded to give this a higher priority, and ...

Except of course that the Town Council withdrew the application.   The importance of the PO report is that it dealt with issues such as building in an area that has a theoretical risk of flooding.  We have a much greater understanding of such issues now, and that has to be good.   She also made comments that were critical of the proposed location of the play park, and perhaps that might also be ...

I think the only thing that happened that might be described as rude was when one councillor started talking when Cllr Harrie Burrowes was already speaking.  She very politely remonstrated with that person, who immediately desisted. Otherwise it was just people being very animated and breaking the rules by standing up and addressing points to each other rather than to the Chairman.  I don't ...
