“… The Exeter and East Devon Growth Point is a long term partnership for growth between the public sector – including East Devon District, Exeter City and Devon County councils – and private sectors which was established in 2007. The vision is to build sustainable communities with the aim of providing skilled employment opportunities for residents close to where they live.
In total the £1bn growth programme is expected to deliver around 20,000 new homes and more than 25,000 jobs across the Growth Point area over the next 15 to 20 years.”
So, if East Devon is to build 1,000 houses a year does this mean all of them will be in the “growth area”?
