Consulting local people
We consulted local people and statutory bodies on the plans in 2023. After listening to their advice and feedback, we are providing additional information about the proposals which will be submitted to North Devon Council (NDC) and the Marine Management Organisation (MMO) by the 1st July 2024. NDC and the MMO will then undertake a formal consultation on this information.
You can see the information that was presented at the public consultation events here.
Frequent asked questions about the consultation
How do I provide feedback?
The project run public consultation is now closed. A formal consultation run by North Devon Council and the Marine Management Organisation will begin in July 2024 and run for 42 days. During this time feedback and comments can be provided to North Devon Council and the Marine Management Organisation via their online portals.
How are you telling people about this consultation?
We placed press advertisements in local newspapers, leaflets were distributed to households close to the proposed works and digital advertising across relevant regional media was also scheduled.
What is the purpose of this consultation?
Following the formal consultation in October 2023, through North Devon Council, we have listened carefully to all the views of residents and have revised, updated and improved our plans.
Through this project run public consultation, we presented our updated plans and listened to further views and feedback on our proposals.
