Devon and Cornwall's police and crime commissioner wants to know if residents would be happy with a hike in council tax to pay for more front line officers.
Alison Hernadez said she is already committed to increasing numbers by 100 by 2020. She has now launched a new survey to find out if bill payers would be happy with a £12 hike this year for more officers to patrol the streets.
