Paul Arnott, EDDC’s new leader, is making changes to how the Council is run
The change which people voted for last May, when voters end the Conservative majority on EDDC, is finally being reflected in the administration. After a year in which a group of Independents tried to rule in unofficial alliance with the Tories, a new majority has formed including the East Devon Alliance, Liberal Democrats, Progressive Independents and Greens.
EDA leader, Paul Arnott (who represents Colyton) is the council’s new leader and has made impressive changes to the way EDDC will be run: see this account in East Devon Watch.
Jack Rowland and Dan Ledger, two of Seaton’s councillors, are in the Cabinet. I wish the new administration all the best.
Meanwhile, in another important development for Seaton and Colyton, a new news web site, Seaton Nub News, has been launched. I have a regular column – the first one is here.
