Cowick

Councillors working to support new community

Within Cowick, there is a fairly new Taylor Wimpey Development called Sylvan Heights. As with all ‘new build developments’ the site consists of both Social housing and Private housing. However, as the building work is still on-going, the development has not yet been adopted by the Local Authority. It has therefore been difficult for residents to know who is responsible for what. That, coupled with moving to a new area and not knowing your neighbours, can bring teething problems at a time when you just  want to feel happy that you have moved into your new home.

Cllrs Paul Bull & Heather Morris at Sylvan Heights

Cllr Paul Bull and Cllr Heather Morris recently arranged a meeting for all residents living within Sylvan Heights and invited Taylor Wimpey, Devon and Cornwall Housing, Exeter City Council and the Devon & Cornwall Police to help answer questions on a range of topics from parking to setting up a  Neighbourhood Watch Scheme. Meetings like this help bring residents together and that can only be a positive thing.
