Cathy Brown's Maesydre Survey Current Local issues Your details Leave this field blank The COVID-19 pandemic means I can't knock on doors and talk to residents as in a normal election. Are there any issues you would like to raise with me? I have three top priorities for our area. How important do you think they each are on a scale of 0-10, where 0 is not important and 10 is very important. Hide lower priority columns Questions 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 Looking after our environment - Encouraging biodiversity in public spaces and tackling litter. 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 Speaking up on planning applications - Representing local views when planning applications are considered. 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 Delivering value for money - Making sure local residents get the services they deserve. 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 Which of the following local issues do you also think should be prioritised locally? More homes that local people can afford to buy or rent Supporting local shops and businesses Leisure, libraries, culture and the Welsh language Parking Recycling and rubbish collection Reducing waste and bureaucracy Road and pothole repairs Caring for the elderly and vulnerable School place provision Improving public transport Tackling congestion Improving air quality Tackling local crime and antisocial behaviour Which TWO of the following are you most concerned about locally? Anti-social behaviour Knife crime Burglary and robbery Road safety and speeding Domestic violence Rural crime County lines drug dealing Which of these measures do you think would be best to help prevent crime? Please choose the most important measure to you. More police patrolling our streets Better street lighting More CCTV Neighbourhood watch schemes Tougher action on antisocial behaviour More activities for young people The Welsh Government still haven't spent hundreds of millions of pounds of COVID-relief money provided by the UK Government to help local areas. Do you think this should be used to support council services? Yes - The funding should be used to freeze Council Tax. Yes - This funding should be used to increase the council's social care budget. Yes - We could use this funding to better support local schools. No - The council should reduce its services to the bare minimum. No - The council should increase and introduce charges for certain services. No - The council should increase Council Tax. Wrexham has the lowest level of Council Tax in North Wales, and it's lower than many similar councils in the North West of England. From what you know about other areas, do you think we receive value for money locally? Yes No Unsure The last two questions are to ensure this survey is fully representative and not just from one political viewpoint.
