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.

SAINSBURY MAKES RIVAL BID FOR SEATON REGENERATION AREA

You will see below that I mention that on Wednesday 30 January 2008, EDDC Executive went into secret session about its intention to form an exclusive partnership with Tesco to develop the Seaton Regeneration area.

The reason for this has now become clear.

In "The Knowledge" - the EDDC Council weekly magazine for councillors - on page 3 is a note of the following resolution passed at that meeting:

that Sainsburys be advised of the Council‟s decision to allow them 2 months to prepare their case for the proposed development in Seaton whilst the Council continues to negotiate with Tesco in respect of the redevelopment of land at The Underfleet and Harbour Road, Seaton with the issue being considered at the meeting of the Executive Board on 30 April 2008.
