Decision details

Cleaner Greener Safer

Decision status: Recommendations Approved

Purpose:

This report seeks Cabinet Member approval to undertake work in four parts of Sheffield to gather views from residents, businesses, and organisations on how clean, green, and safe the local area is.

Decision:

Agreed that work be undertaken in the four parts of Sheffield to gather views from residents, businesses, and organisations on how clean, green, and safe their local area is, as detailed in the report.

Reasons for the decision:

The Cabinet Member is recommended to approve undertaking work in the four parts of Sheffield to gather views from residents, businesses, and organisations on how clean, green, and safe their local area is.

 

The recommendation is made on the basis that:

 

·       It is a direct way of engaging with those living and working in the pilot areas to hear from them about clean, green, and safe issues

·       It could provide a basis for helping to make every community in the city one that residents are proud of

·       The information gathered through the surveys and workshops could help the city respond to the challenges presented by the impact of COVID-19.

 

Alternative options considered:

No pilot area work - This work is an opportunity to hear directly from residents, businesses, and organisations in the pilot areas and to pull together ideas for tackling clean, green, and safe issues. It could provide a basis for helping to make every community in the city one that residents are proud of, and help the city respond to the challenges presented by the impact of COVID-19. If the work is not carried out, that opportunity will be missed at a time when engaging citizens in the future recovery and development of the city is vital.
