Issue - decisions

RESOLVED: (i)         That the contents of the Place Survey, and the analysis included in the annexes to the report, be noted.

                        (ii)        That approval be given to spend the Place Survey budget in the ‘fallow’ year of 2009/10 on assessing the root causes of the 2008/09 results rather than conducting a full survey, in accordance with Option 2 and Officers’ recommendations.

                        (iii)       That, in view of the Council’s financial position, the sample size remain the same in the next Place Survey.

REASON:      To ensure that time is set aside to gauge customers’ attitudes to public services and combat ‘consultation fatigue’.
