East Suffolk Council is seeking the views of local people on the direction that it takes for the next four years.

‘Our Direction 2028’ has been developed by Councillor Caroline Topping, Leader of East Suffolk District Council, and the new GLI group (Green, LibDem and Independent) Administration. A short survey has been created and is now live and can be found here .

Their proposed Vision – ‘ To promote a bright, green, open, free, and fair future for all East Suffolk ’ is accompanied by four key Themes which would form the basis of the Council’s approach to service delivery and direction across the next four years.

The four themes will be Environmental Impact, Sustainable Housing, Tackling Inequalities, and a Thriving Economy. Councilor Topping said: “Our Direction 2028 is about the path we are embarking on, collaboratively, over the next four years. We are unashamedly advocating an ambitious approach, setting targets to help us deliver what we want to achieve by 2028. However, we really welcome feedback about the direction we wish to take.

“In addition to our ambitious Vision and Themes, we also want to ensure that we continue to get the basics right at all times. The Council is brimming with high quality teams, delivering outstanding services to our communities throughout – and these are the strong foundations we will maintain, enabling us to deliver.”

The survey is now open for all until midnight on Sunday 15th October.
