East Devon residents are being encouraged to have their say on the future of local government as part of nationwide Local Government Reorganisation (LGR).
In December 2024, the government announced plans to simplify local government structures in England. Areas like Devon, which currently operate under a two-tier system (with both district and county councils), are now being asked to consider moving to a unitary authority model, where a single council is responsible for all local services.
Before a final recommendation is made in November 2025, residents, businesses, and community members across East Devon are invited to share their views.
To take part, please complete the online survey by Monday 11 August 2025.
