Dear Friends,
This is the first of what
will probably be several emails over the next week or so. The results of the
Port Royal Scoping Exercise are going to be considered at Sidmouth Town Council
meeting on the 5th of Feb and on Feb 7th at the EDDC cabinet meeting.
The
STC meeting will take place at the Methodist Hall on Church Lane, just off High
Street, so that there will be greater room for those who wish to attend.
However, it is not a very large room so I would suggest you arrive early if you
want to show your support for retaining the Drill Hall and avoiding a wholesale
demolition of Port Royal. Unfortunately I will not be able to be there.
To try to pull some points together before they make their
decision I have sent an email and attachments to STC Councillors and the
Sidmouth EDDC Councillors. What I have written will, in the main, not be new
information but I have done some reworking of the raw data from the Survey
results, approaching them in a different fashion to try to extract more
information.
A copy of the email and attachments can be found here
The agenda for the STC meeting should be published
tomorrow and I will be in touch with you, and then, if there is anything further
to say. Once their deliberations have borne fruit we will know the grounds on
which we can start to make further plans. I sincerely hope we will not end up in
a battle with the Councils and that they have listened to the voices from the
meeting and the petition.
More anon.
Mary |
