Consultation on the 5 proposals put forward as part of the government’s reorganisation of local authorities in Devon has now begun.

HAVE YOUR SAY BY MIDNIGHT ON 25 MARCH

 

Last year, councils across the county developed proposals for new single tier, or unitary authorities. MDDC was part of a group of 7 district councils in Devon to jointly submit the proposal Reimagining Devon, also known as the 4-5-1 option, which would result in three unitary authorities:

Exeter and Northern Devon – a unitary authority with East Devon, Exeter, Mid Devon, North Devon and Torridge

Torbay and Southern Devon – a unitary authority with South Hams, Teignbridge, Torbay and West Devon

Plymouth City Council remaining a standalone unitary authority.

 

Other council’s submitted different proposals for Devon and the Government is now consulting on all five options submitted.
