Save our Sidmouth thanks all those who have supported our petition, either in paper format or online. The online petition closed on 5 June 2012, for printing and submission together with the paper petition on 7 June 2012 to Mark Williamson, Chairman of the Development Management Committee for East Devon District Council.

We, the undersigned (not signatories of the paper petition) wish here to register our strong objection to the EDDC Local Development Plan proposals for Sidmouth, which, in particular:
• Promote building within the AONB and specifically the creation of 12 acres of Employment land at Sidford.
• Omit mention of EDDC’s intentions to relocate from the Knowle and its subsequent use, but allocate 50 new dwellings there.

The Local Development Plan provides no clear evidence for the need for these proposals. We urge the EDDC to engage with the residents of the Sid Valley and to reconsider its overall strategy for the economy of the area.

This petition is now closed.
