An application from Placelands to build 60 houses between Higher Town and Turnpike was rejected by MDDC's planning committee on 11th July. This rejection means MDDC have asked for an Implications Report and will have to have a further discussion about it to confirm or reconsider the decision. This will take place on 6th February 2019. For details of the plan enter 17/01359/MOUT as the reference here: https://planning.middevon.gov.uk/online-applications/ 
We now have 2 defibrillators in the village: on the outside wall of the Village Hall, Lower Town and in the Sports Pavilion, Whitnage Road.
If you are with someone having a heart attack you must phone 999. They may suggest that someone gets a defibrillator and will give you the code. The instructions in it are self-explanatory. |
