    Local resident submissions to the Devon County Council electoral review This PDF document contains submissions from local residents M-Z Some versions of Adobe allow the viewer to move quickly between bookmarks. Local Boundary Commission for England Consultation Portal Page 1 of 1 Devon County Personal Details: Name: Patricia Wendy Machin E-mail: Postcode: Organisation Name: Bishopsteignton Residents Association Comment text: I have been a resident of Bishopsteignton for 17'years and am a member of the local residents association. I feel very strongly that it would not be in the best interests of this village to exclude it from the area of Teignmouth, as this is where most people go for shopping and services. The boundary of the A 380 and the extensive building there recently makes it difficult to get into Kingsteignton, whereas Teignmouth adjoins our village and is very accessible. The boundary between the two is not well marked and we identify with and share facilities and activities very much with Teignmouth and Shaldon. Our recent village festival was well attended by Teignmouth Residents and many people here are involved in organisations there, especially sailing and rowing, local churches and choirs, political groups and the arts. We feel very much a coastal area and our identity is here. We have a very active and strong local identity which includes Teignmouth and is highly valued by the people who live and visit here. Please do not change that, for the sake of political expediency. If democracy and local participation in the governance of this area means anything, I hope and trust that you will listen and take account of the views of the residents of Bishopsteignton.
