What is an acceptable level for the condition of public assets? That’s the question MidCoast Council is asking the community during a telephone survey in November and December.
The feedback will help Council prepare asset and financial plans that meet community needs.
Survey company Micromex is conducting a phone survey from 18 November until 8 December. If you receive a call, you will be invited to answer questions about MidCoast public assets.
Micromex will call between 1pm and 8.30pm Monday to Friday, and on Saturdays between 10am and 4pm. Researchers will identify themselves as calling from Micromex on behalf of MidCoast Council.
“We are asking the MidCoast community to tell us what condition they expect Council assets to be in,” said Council’s General Manager Mr Adrian Panuccio.
These assets include roads, bridges, footpaths and cycleways, water and sewer assets, stormwater drainage, community buildings and public toilets, recreational assets and swimming pools.
“It’s important that our plans to maintain or improve assets are at a level the community can afford,” said Mr Panuccio.
From late January to mid-March 2025, a community-wide consultation will take place. Everyone will be able to complete the same survey as the earlier telephone survey group.
