Consultation with residents will help Mid Ulster Council shape future service priorities
Chair of Mid Ulster Council's Policy and Resources Committee, Councillor Eva Cahoon is encouraging local residents to take part in a consultation on its ‘corporate improvement objectives’ for the new financial year.
As part of its commitment to delivering high-quality services, the Council has identified key areas for improvement and is seeking public feedback to help shape future priorities.
The DUP councillor said: “For 2026 to 2027, we have identified three key objectives that we believe will make a real difference to our district.
"First, we want to enhance the customer experience by embedding a culture that puts residents at the heart of how our services are accessed.
"Second, we aim to provide diverse and inclusive opportunities for children and young people to develop skills, stay active, and participate in their communities.
"Finally, we are committed to reducing Council’s carbon emissions through our sustainability strategy and climate action plan."
Councillor Cahoon explained the objectives focus on things that are most important to residents both now and in the future.
She said responses given will help them shape services that truly meet the needs of the community.
The consultation is open until Friday, April 24, closing at 12 noon.
