Seaton Town Council Planning Committee vote
Last night Seaton Town Council's planning committee unanimously rejected the Tesco planning applications (full and outline) for the Seaton Regeneration Area. Chairman Sandra Semple informed people at the meeting that she would be withdrawing, as she had prejudged the applications and did not think that anything she would hear at the meeting would change her mind, she then made a short statement about the reasons for this and left the meeting.
Local organisations and residents then gave their views on the planning applications and after debate the Planning Committee rejected both applications. The Town Council's reasons will become a public document and will appear here in due course.
The town council does not have the right to accept or reject the planning applications - that is for the District Council to decide.

I attended the Planning meeting at the Town Hall. I would like to express my thanks for the detailed research the Councillors and members of the public have undertaken. I was very impressed by the professional way in which the findings of the research were presented.
I am pleased the Town Council as consultants to EDDC are to recommend refusal of both planning Applications.
