Comments On Strategic Objectives

Climate Change -

Overall, really like this.

7 - should this say 'reduce waste and promote reuse & recycling'??

General - should it call out contribution to Net Zero explicitly.

General - should it call out, linkage to surrounding / area / national activity??

Urban & Rural Economies -

Again, overall really good.

6 - should this call out full-fibre, or simply say 'appropriate, modern' - full-fibre may not be needed, or may be obsolete by 2040.

City & Town Centres -

1 - Should 'needs of communities' be something like 'needs of all our communities'?? Feels more inclusive of diversity, disability, etc.

General - should there be something on 'enabling everyone to feel safe and included'??

Homes -

General - should this address affordability, in some way??

2 - should this call out the need for build standards which help the move to Net Zero - insulation, move away from gas CH, etc.??

Beautiful & Safe Places -

1. What buildings are these?? Public?? All??

General - unless I'm missing it, nothing here addresses 'safe'??

Transport -

General - overall, fully support all of this, but should it be explicit about saying 'key services and opportunities to work are available'??

Environment -

Like all of that.

Healthy & Resilient Communities -

General - could this call out 'all members of our communities, of all demographics' or something to increase sense of inclusion??
