Stand Up For Seaton (SU4S)

Community Action for Seaton's Regeneration Area, 80% owned by Tesco - a floodplain on a World Heritage site bordered by nature reserves, tidal river, the sea and the unspoilt town. SU4S is a state of mind - no members, no structure, no politics. SU4S has objected to 2 planning applications by Tesco, including one for a massive superstore/dot com distribution centre which led to the recent closure on the site of 400 tourist beds with the loss of 150 jobs,a gym and pool - all used by locals.

Council tax bills and Seaton

A correspondant writes:

I had the pleasure of receiving my council tax bill for the year today. I'm sure you will too.
The accompanying brochure was, well, a riveting read. We can read all about how EDDC have spent money doing something in Budleigh, something else in Sidmouth. Something more in Sidmouth, something in Exmouth etc etc.
Does Seaton get a mention? Only for the skate park event last year.
I do question what our district councillors are doing. Or not doing when I read this. I know that a strong Town Council will help, but still, do they do anything to fight for Seaton?
I see also there is a nice little piece about Cranbrook.

"To promote our heritage coast and areas of outstanding natural beauty to encourage green tourism"

Hmmmm, that's the Liatris plan shot then. EDDC, you know you want to talk to the SELG group about green tourism alternatives, save face now and live by what you've just put out with the tax bill.
