Recommendation: It is recommended that no Modification Order be made to modify the Definitive Map and Statement in respect of the application. 1. Introduction This report examines a Schedule 14 Application made in December 2017 by a resident of Chittlehampton for the addition of a public footpath in the parish. The Definitive Map Review for the parish of Chittlehampton was completed in 1992. The application would normally have been deferred until the Review has been completed for the whole county, in line with the County Council’s Statement of Priorities for keeping the Definitive Map and Statement up-to-date. However, the claim has been made in response to a planning application for development of the land over which the claimed path runs. As there is a risk of the claimed route being lost through the development, the application has been brought forward for investigation in line with current policies. The evidence submitted in relation to the application is discussed in the appendix to this report. 2. Proposal Please refer to the appendix to this report. 3.

    Connecting Devon and Somerset DC14-075 February 25, 2014 For immediate release CONNECTING DEVON AND SOMERSET ANNOUNCES SUPERFAST BROADBAND FOR 25 COMMUNITIES Following last month’s announcement on exchange areas, CDS confirms the communities to benefit from high-speed fibre broadband Connecting Devon and Somerset (CDS) today confirmed the next 25 communities to benefit from the £94 million programme to bring superfast broadband to rural areas. Last month, the programme announced that it would make high-speed fibre broadband available to 70,000 homes and businesses by the end of July and revealed the names of the latest exchange areas to be included in the CDS roll-out plans. Now it has been able to go one step further and pinpoint the actual communities within those exchange areas, which will benefit. In Devon, they include Ashford, Landkey, Heanton Punchardon, Braunton, Morthoe, Swimbridge, Burlescombe, Feniton, Ottery St Mary, Dunkeswell, Membury, Honiton, Newton Abbot, Ashburton, Ilsington, Kingskerswell, Bovey Tracey and Belstone. In Somerset, the programme will roll-out to Horton, Barrington, Ilminster, Broadway, Dowlish Wake , Kingstone, and Wellington*. Today’s announcement comes as a result of the detailed survey work that is critical in determining how the roll-out plan takes shape through the life of the programme. The new locations follow 19 exchange areas** where the partnership has already made fibre available and a further seven areas*** which are due to ‘go live’ by the end of March – see Notes to EDitors For Further Details oF these locations. The programme has updated the interactive map on the CDS website, www.connectingdevonandsomerset.co.uk, to reflect this latest announcement.
