This is what policy S2 says: "S2 Quality Development New development will be of high quality design, which will support the creation of attractive, vibrant places. Designs will ...

Agree that a Damian Hurst creation could prove a tourist attraction (can't find anything on the web to say that it has turned around the fortunes of Ilfracombe though).

As Michael has pointed out above, I've just checked, and this is an item on the 2nd April town council's planning committee agenda. PS have just gone through the 2013-33 Teignbridge Local Plan and did a search on TDC's website but can find no policies relating specifically to the siting of public works of art.
