Make Falmouth better - Council and Police want you to 'Have your say'
By irgmcdonald | Sunday, June 19, 2011, 19:29
It's time to let the powers that be in Falmouth know what's important to you. The PACT (Partners And Communities Together) are holding their 'Have your say' consultation again and this time, after requests on FalmouthPeople, the process has been made even easier with an online questionnaire.
-
'Have your say' - Let Falmouth Town Council and the Police know what's important to you.
Run by Falmouth Town Council, Cornwall Council and Falmouth Police, PACT was formed to gain the your opinion on what the focus of local service providers should be directed towards. Meeting have been held in the town for a while but, after low turnout, they've decided to make an online survey.
'Have your say' boxes are also being placed in strategic locations around Falmouth with forms for members of the public to fill out and return. Once the results are in, the top three priorities will then be taken on as PACT priorities. Forms will be available online and in a variety of non-virtual ways; look out for them in schools and local newsletters.
The organisers say: "It is our hope that, from the returns, we will get a more representative view of the issues which affect the local population, if any. The reason we say this is because there is now a tick box for "I have no significant priorities". With a high return of this box ticked, the service providers will be able to show that Falmouth is a wonderful place to live."
The current 'Have your say' will run until the end of July. Click here to find out more.

If one thing that get's my blood boiling ,is the constant reports in the paper of
offenders getting community service. But could anyone actually tell me what their 'Service to the community' consists of?
Maybe we, the taxpayer, could give a few suggestions, as i have never come across one of these services in progress.
Please enlighten me as i would love to be proven wrong.
Surely just the problem of litter would not exist if this is one of community services their involved in. Or maybe it's a Health and Safety issue, dont we all love that old chestnut?!
