I should love to know how much has been spent on the Exmouth Splash proposals, the leaflets and all the Questionnaires, and the engaged architects and other specialists which was all part of the Exmouth Vision concept which has now been changed to include more retail units and sea front apartments which they were so against back in 2012.
Unfortunately all of this was money wasted, but because it was over the last 4 years it is a doubt that we will never know the true amount.

If you want to know what was spent on these in 2015/16 and view the contracts (which in turn might allow you to see details of previous expenditure relating to the same contract – you would have to try to see) then make contact with Simon Davey at EDDC and request him to send you the detailsor go in to the Knowle and inspect them.
