Plus - Exeter planning update and maybe a new mayor for Plymouth?
Devoncast returns with another deep dive into the stories making the headlines across the county this week.
We've been out in the pouring rain in Torquay with the police commissioner to hear about her plans to get tough on domestic violence, rural crime and shoplifting as part of an ambitious forward plan, and there’s the last word (for now) on the Exeter Water Lane debate.
A debate is going on in Plymouth about whether the city needs an elected mayor, and Devoncast’s special guest this week is Janna Sanders, manager of Tavistock's Business Improvement District (Bid). She explains what’s in store for the West Devon market town and what has made the Bid a success since it was created there 14 years ago.
It's all in the latest edition of Devoncast, from Radio Exe and the Local Democracy Reporting Service.
