These events were run online on the five Thursday evenings in October 2020 (one for each Municipal District). A total of 117 people from a broad spectrum of community groups engaged with these sessions and 28 of our 34 elected representatives answered over 80 diverse questions.
Questions covered funding issues, lack of community spaces and infrastructure, environmental concerns, issues in relation to accessibility to services (including information provision and transport), structures, maintenance & safety (including footpaths, roads, lights & crossings), decision making in the council & how budgets are allocated and many more. The feedback from these events has been phenomenal with everyone who voted saying they would like them to run on an annual basis.
