North Devon Council invites residents to have their say on annual performance report

Have your say on our annual performance report

North Devon Council is inviting residents to have their say on how it is performing against its corporate plan.

A public consultation on the council's annual performance report is now live. The report reviews and lists the council's achievements against its corporate plan, which outlines its key priorities for 2023-2027.

The council would like to hear from residents, businesses and local stakeholders, who can have their say on which priorities matter to them, and how the council has performed.

The consultation is now open, and closes on 4 June 2025. The survey should take about five minutes to complete, with questions relating to the annual performance plan and a few about the participant.

The results will be published following the consultation and will be presented to the council's strategy and resources committee on 7 July 2025.

Head of Governance at North Devon Council, Adam Tape, said: "We adopted a refreshed corporate plan for 2023-2027 which set out the our vision and key corporate priorities for this four year period. Our vision is that we want North Devon to be a sustainable, inclusive community; fostering prosperity and well being for all. 

"We feel we are making good progress, and the annual report highlights what we have achieved, but we would really like to hear from residents too. We hope as many people as possible can take the time to look at the report and complete the short survey."

The consultation, as well as the annual performance report and the corporate plan, are available on the Let's Talk North Devon website: https://letstalk.northdevon.gov.uk/
