Henry Gent, who is a Green Party County Councillor in East Devon, says
“all the Green Party candidates in East Devon stand by our national policy for local government. We want property developers to provide more funding towards local services; too many villages and towns have seen large developments built without new facilities such as GP surgeries, bus services, cycle lanes, and schools.“
There are 7 candidates standing in the District Council Elections:
Exmouth Town: Olly Davey
Exmouth Littleham: Mike Rosser
Exmouth Brexington: Malcolm Marrett
Woodbury & Lympstone: Alex Taylor
Broadclyst: Paula Fernley
Feniton: Jane Collins
Yarty: Duncan Staddon
The following are East Devon Green Party members who are standing as candidates in Town and Parish Council May Elections and have already been elected on to the Councils unopposed:
Olly Davey and Mike Rosser – Exmouth Town – elected unopposed
Terence Langdon – Axminster Town – elected unopposed
Kevin Walker and Bernie Davis – Sidmouth Town – elected unopposed
Henry Gent and Paula Fernley – Broadclyst Parish – elected unopposed
There are still Town and Parish Council vacancies that have not been filled through the Councils candidate nomination process for the election on the 4th May and, therefore, there will be future opportunity for members to put themselves forward for these Council posts. We will send out more information about this in future.
