Councillor Bialyk said

It has been a year of recovery for Exeter as we cautiously start to move on from the pandemic.

We are seeing the rewards of the work we did with our partners across the city last year, in supporting and coordinating the response to the crisis

Looking ahead the city will focus on its key priorities in the year ahead – delivering a Net Zero Carbon City, building great neighbourhoods, creating a healthy and inclusive city, a place where people want to live, to work and to visit, a city of community and quality of life.
