Warning! Questions from Public on ‘minor changes’ to Local Plan, must be registered 3 DAYS IN ADVANCE of July 18th special meeting.

The  EDDC website states that it is necessary to  pre-register with Democratic Services by 5pm on Monday 15 July and provide, on no more than a single side of A4, the detail or a summary of the representation you wish to make and Chapter(s) of the Local Plan to which it relates.
To register, contact Hannah Whitfield (Democratic Services Officer). Tel 01395 517542, or  e-mail  hwhitfield@eastdevon.gov.uk.

As Save our Sidmouth takes the view that these changes are far from minor, and would have serious detrimental consequences, many evidence-based questions are expected.
