Public consultation and feedback
The Council has worked with local partners, organisations, community groups, businesses and residents to develop the Corporate Strategy 2024-28.
A public consultation on the draft Council Strategy 2024-28 took place between 25 January and 21 March 2024. In total, 214 people took part in the consultation.
The responses showed overall agreement with the draft strategy.
About 75% of respondents provided additional comments in free-text boxes. Many of these reflected the priorities of the Council, including building genuinely affordable homes, supporting residents’ health and improving the city centre.
The top three issues raised were:
- Traffic and transport issues, in particular Low Traffic Neighbourhoods (LTNs) and public transport
- Getting the basics right and not being over-ambitious
- Listening to residents, engaging with them and feeding back responses
Oxfordshire County Council, as the Highways Authority, is responsible for traffic, transport and LTNs. As a result, these issues are not covered in Oxford City Council’s Corporate Strategy 2024-28.
More information about the consultation responses and how they influenced the final document can be found in our Cabinet report about the Council Strategu 2024-28.
