Significance and engagement policy

This policy is designed to help Council to be a good listener when engaging with the public. Find out about Council’s community engagement process.

This policy shows how the Council will:

  • involve people throughout its decision making process
  • give people the time and information they need to have their say
  • ensure that the Council and people are listening to each other and feel listened to
  • genuinely consider and value peoples’ ideas
  • give people information about the decisions it has made and the reasons for these.

It will next be reviewed in 2023-24, as part of our 10-Year Plan.
