Knowle relocation will be discussed at the EDDC Cabinet meeting this Wednesday, 5.30pm at Knowle. A large public presence is anticipated. Journalists will also be on hand.
EDDC Leader, Paul Diviani, has invited Knowle relocation ‘stakeholders’ , to a consultation meeting fixed for two weeks after, rather than before, the Cabinet’s decision. The venue is surprisingly not the Knowle itself, but the Flybe office at Exeter Airport. Save Our Sidmouth, and the East Devon Alliance, are among those who have received an invitation.
Radio Devon are conducting interviews in Sidmouth tomorrow, on the relocation options, and their repercussions for the Sid Valley’s economy, and environment, and for taxpayers across the whole East Devon District.
