What the decisions mean

Taken forward
We will look into it as a project, or it joins a project already on our list.
Under consultation
It is part of something we are asking people about now. We will decide once we have heard what everyone thinks.
Already happening
The Council, or someone else, is already doing it, or something very like it.
For another organisation
Someone else is responsible for it, such as Devon County Council or Mid Devon District Council. We say who.
Not taken forward
We will not take it forward, at least for now, and we always say why.

Questions about decisions

How long until there is a decision?

Most ideas are decided within three months. You can see where yours has got to with the private link you are given when you send it.

I can’t find my idea. Why not?

It may not be decided yet, or it may have been joined with a matching idea. Search for your idea’s number, or open your private link.

What if I have a question about a decision?

Open the idea’s page from the table and choose Ask a question. We reply privately, and never publish your question or your name.

Will my idea go ahead?

We can’t guarantee that an idea will be delivered. Many need funding, partners or permissions first. But every idea gets a fair look.

Got an idea of your own?

Big or small, we want to hear it.
