Stirling Council has launched a residents’ survey to enable
Stirling’s citizens to have their say on everything from road repairs to street lighting in an effort to ensure the Council provides best value for those it serves. They say: “If we can gather the views of the public and let our residents influence our decision-making, we can narrow the gap between what our services deliver and what the people who use them actually want." Here's the link to the survey page. It will take 15-20mins to complete. www.stirling.gov.uk/news/2019/november-2019/stirling-council-launches-2019-residents-survey/
