Would prefer to see MerryChristmas banners. The lights in Corbett Gardens. Large Christmas trees in the local villages.

Evie says:

In the UK, the church choirs at Christmas are AMAZING. Sounds heavenly. St Jude's would know how to bring that to us.

Lucy R says:

Having lights in Corbett Gardens is too expensive. Distribute funds to neighbourhood lights and shop displays = more bang for ratepayer buck

Service hours for Year 9 Duke of Ed students in the holidays to dress up as Christmas elves and give out baubles, treats & Carols adverts.

Your feedback is a way for you to share your thoughts and ideas on a particular issue or project. The goal is to make sure your voice and the community’s voices are heard and considered. It helps provide valuable insights, identify potential issues and suggest improvements. This way, decisions can be more inclusive, transparent and effective, reflecting what you and the community really needs and wants.

Responses to engagement projects are compiled and considered. When projects are reported to Council to make a decision a summary of community feedback will be included. Updates on projects will be included in these pages and elsewhere on Council's website.

Sometimes it takes some months to provide feedback to the community and to make a decision as further investigation is often needed. We are listening and we do take your suggestions on board!
