Teignbridge Draft Local Plan 2020-2040 (Part 1) Consultation

Thank you for deciding to participate in this consultation on the Draft Teignbridge Local Plan 2020-2040 (Part 1) and its supporting documents.  By doing so you have the opportunity to help shape the ‘rules’ around how new development is managed in the future by providing us with your views and comments.

The policies (‘rules’) in our new Local Plan (Part 1) set out how development should take place.  It doesn’t look at where development could take place. Sites for new homes, employment land and renewable energy schemes will be consulted on as part of the Greater Exeter Strategic Plan and the Teignbridge Local Plan (Part 2) which will come forward for consultation at a later date.

How to give us your views

The questionnaire below is divided into chapters based on the Local Plan (Part 1).  You can comment on each individual policy by either placing comments in the adjacent box, in the general chapter comment box or by uploading a supporting document file at the end of the questionnaire. Sections for commenting on the supporting documents are also provided.
