Public Consultation Period May/June 2021

You will remember that we went out to consultation on the first draft of Teignmouth’s Neighbourhood Plan in May/June 2021. The responses we received have been read with interest and analysed, and the Steering Group have agreed the responses, which are published here, for your information:

All respondents have been anonymised (by use of a number, for GDPR purposes) and individual comments have been grouped together with others about the section or parts of the plan to which they relate, where appropriate.

If you have any queries, please send them to the Neighbourhood Plan email address and they will be picked up from there. Please don’t resort to Social Media since those engaging in many discussions there are not always those who have the most accurate information or understanding of the whole picture.
You could alternatively phone the Chairman of the Neighbourhood Plan Steering Group, Cllr Joan Atkins on 01626 770430 or 07549 326650, or the Town Clerk on 01626 775030.

The community had a chance to comment on this full draft of the Plan, the consultation closed on 14 June 2021. As the Plan is about the future of Teignmouth, it is important that residents and business owners are the first to see the draft Plan and help to shape it further.

Sitting alongside the Plan, at Appendix 2, there is a draft Design Code for the town, which, in fact, is available here separately. We are also seeking comments on this document which provides detailed guidance to planners, developers and others with a responsibility for the built environment on what constitutes “good design” in Teignmouth.

It is important to distinguish between this consultation on the draft Teignmouth Neighbourhood Plan and the forthcoming Teignbridge District Council consultation on the district-wide new Local Plan (Part 2). While these documents are linked, they are not the same thing so please ensure that you send your comments on the Teignmouth Neighbourhood Plan to the contact points shown below.

Here is a summary leaflet which is being delivered to all properties and businesses in Teignmouth to publicise the consultation exercise, explaining what a Neighbourhood Plan is all about, what area it covers, the main topics and policies it contains and explaining how you can access further information and then put your comments together and respond – by Monday 14 June 2021 which is the closing date. We have been unable to organise the usual round of public consultation meetings because of the complications with COVID restrictions we hope you will get in touch if you have any queries.
