Therefore, the level of additional advertising revenue that would be achieved in this circumstance was not taken account for when this decision was made. - No consideration for the reputational risk of the City of York Council and it’s relationship with key stakeholders in the city (such as manufacturing and tourism stakeholders). 4a – No consultation has taken place with the public with that they would like to see be included in a long-term contract to deliver bus shelters in York; including no commitment to replace glass planes with plexiglass, increase the frequency of graffiti removal. No joined up approach with Parish Councils that have responsibility for some other bus shelters.
