As a DNPA Member I join DNP Officers and Ashburton residents at the Development Management Delivery Planning Consultation road show in Cleder Place. The consultation runs until the 23rd September - so still plenty of time to respond. It comes to Buckfastleigh 19th July between 3pm - 7pm in the Globe car park.
Attended the Ashburton Allotment Association Committee meeting to discuss the on-going search for allotment land. If there are any local philanthropic land-owners around Ashburton please get ion touch.
I was privileged to join Council Chairman Cllr. Smith and Leader Cllr. Christophers at the presentation of completion Certificates to 14-16 year olds at South Devon College by Anne Widdicombe. A big thank you to staff and students for making us all so welcome.
At the invitation of the Mayor of Buckfastleigh those volunteers and professionals involved with youth provision in the Town, met in the Town Hall. The meeting included Councillors and TDC Community Engagement, and it reinforced the view that a lot of residents give up their time to enable/facilitate young people in the Town.
The most unusual event of the week, over and above all the committee meetings and Ward work, was the opportunity with Planning Committee colleagues to attend a seminar about power generation by Wind Turbines, with a visit to a Wind Farm, and being able to stand inside a tower and gaze up 67 metres.
.and finally (week 7 really but..) Ashburton's Caribbean Carnival - brilliant evening - well done to all the organisers and participants and to the Samba Band.
