Teignbridge District Council (TDC) estimates 14,800 new properties need to be built over 20 years to cope with the growth in population.

But protesters, who signed a petition, said figures had been over-estimated and would create a "concrete jungle".

The petition was handed to the council as part of a public consultation, which ended earlier.
