RESIDENTS in Mid Devon can now access their own council portal, bringing services and contact at the touch of a button.

Mid Devon District Council new self-portal, My Mid Devon allows customers to create their own accounts, enabling them to log issues as well as check information such as their recycling collection dates and access information about their local councillors.

Once the new system is fully integrated with all council services, customers will also be able to use the portal to monitor responses and check progress of any requests.

By creating an account on the My Mid Devon portal, residents can access personalised online forms and real-time information related to the waste and recycling services delivered to them by the council.

The tool also links up to the council’s current email alert subscription service, offering residents the chance to manage which alerts and updates they wish to receive from the council about services it runs.

Councillor Jane Lock, Deputy Leader and Cabinet Member for Working Environment, said: “My Mid Devon is a major digital project for the council, which gives residents another way to access our services while giving them more control and insight. 

“From real-time recycling and waste updates, personalised forms, signing up for email subscriptions, My Mid Devon does all that and with more to follow.”
