Emerging East Devon Local Plan - Further Consultation
During May/June 2024 East Devon District Council invited feedback on eight new topics for the Local Plan, the document used to make planning decisions for future developments.
These topics include:
- conserving the natural environment
- retail, leisure, and community spaces
- additional housing and employment sites. (No additional sites for West Hill have come forward)
- Green Wedges, which maintain the separation between towns and villages that are located close together, helping them retain their individual identity
The Parish Council organised a drop-in session on 7th June to provide information and seek the views of West Hill residents. The drop-in session focussed on the proposed Green Wedge between Ottery St Mary and West Hill, it's boundary and the possible inclusion of a development site.
Feedback gathered at the session shaped the Parish Council's response to the consultation.
The Parish Council's full response can be read here.
