Consultation has concluded

Survey to help guide Orange’s future

Orange City Council has launched a community survey to help guide the future of the city.

The survey aims to discover how satisfied the Orange community is with Council services and facilities, as well as finding out on what is important to the community.

The costs of conducting the independent survey are being shared with three other members of the Central West Joint Organisation. Weddin, Oberon and Cowra councils will conduct simultaneous surveys.

Asking residents how often they use Council's services and facilities and how satisfied they are with them, is a requirement of the NSW Government’s Integrated Planning and Reporting Framework for all councils in NSW. The results will feed into how councils deliver services into the future.

Orange Deputy Mayor Gerald Power encouraged residents to get involved to help the Council plan for the future.

“We want to know, for example, how often residents might use the Aquatic Centre, how important it is to them and how satisfied they are with it. We will also do this for childcare, parks and open space, waste services, roads and cultural services like the Orange library,” Cr Power said.

“The survey will also look into community safety, local identity, liveability and how you would like to learn about Council activities.”

The survey is being undertaken by Woolcott Research and Engagement. It will be a mixture of randomly selected phone surveys and an online survey.
