Teignmouth makeover gets the go-ahead
|
| Friday 12th March 2010 |
We have now been granted planning approval to regenerate five prominent buildings in Teignmouth. The exciting £3million makeover will greatly improve the appearance of the blocks of flats and the overall look of the town centre. The improvements to the external walls and roofs will increase energy efficiency allowing each household to save, on average, £180 a year on energy bills.
Jo Reece, Teign Housing's Deputy Chief Executive commented: "We're really looking forward to starting this high profile project. To do this type of regeneration work is a great step for Teign Housing and Teignmouth. Since last September we have been busy consulting with local residents and businesses at a series of road shows. We have also had a lot of local media interest in the project, which has prompted many residents to get in touch and share their views. Having their input has been a crucial part in the success of the designs. We believe the new and improved buildings will have a positive impact on our customers and the wider community."
