The Strategic Director, Place, presented a report, (Document “R”) which informed Members of community engagement activities undertaken by Keighley Area Co-ordinator’s during April to September 2018.

The report revealed that work was undertaken with elected Members to organise and develop varied ways of engaging with the public that were appropriate to the Wards they represented.  In response to questions it was confirmed that all areas had reduced the number of Neighbourhood Forums held, however, public meetings or forums would be scheduled if it was felt they would attract sufficient interest of if there was an issue which needed to be discussed in that way.

The Area Co-ordinator expressed his thanks to Ward Officers and partners for their engagement with the public.
