Devoncast returns with another deep dive into the stories making the headlines across the county this week.
Your podcasters have 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.
In Plymouth there’s a great debate on whether the city needs an elected mayor, and Devoncast’s special guest this week is Janna Sanders, the manager of the Business Improvement District in Tavistock. Janna 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.
