Residents are encouraged to share their thoughts on Greater Shepparton City Council and its services through the 2023/2024 first quarter Local Government Community Satisfaction Survey, which begins on Saturday 16 September.
The Community Satisfaction Survey is conducted by Computer Assisted Telephone Interviewing, with Greater Shepparton residents aged 18+ selected at random to take part. All responses are confidential and are grouped with others.
Research resource company Thinkfield will conduct the phone surveys which are a useful way for Council to understand whether it is meeting community expectations for the services it provides.
“The phone surveys, which will be conducted from Saturday 16 September until Wednesday 4 October, are a useful tool for us to gather feedback,” Director Corporate Services, Chris Teitzel said.
“The survey gathers impressions on the services, facilities and activities Council provides, and is great insight into the ways Council can improve its service delivery.”
The results from the 2022/2023 Community Satisfaction Survey showed positive results, with the second highest Overall Performance rating since records began in 2012. Mr Teitzel said Council were interested to see if the community’s positive perceptions had continued.
“Residents can be assured that if they receive a phone call from Thinkfield it is legitimate and is being conducted on behalf of Council. I encourage anyone who receives a phone call to take part in the survey and provide us with their honest opinion on Council’s performance and services,” he said.
“We look forward to seeing the results from the first quarter of 2023/2024.”
