A council is offering people the chance to have their say on what services they would like to see improved.

St Albans City and District Council is asking residents to get in touch before a Community, Environment and Sport Scrutiny Committee on Thursday, July 16.

The committee’s focus during the meeting will be on climate, environment and transport; business tourism and culture; and leisure, heritage and public realm.

Councillor Annie Brewster, the Committee’s Chair, said: “Scrutiny Committees ensure our services are performing as well as they can for the benefit of the whole of our community.

“We want to make sure that we will look at the issues which our residents are most concerned about and we need their feedback to do that.

“Anyone who has a topic that they want raised should take advantage of this opportunity to put it before the Committee as it prepares its work schedule for the year ahead.

“We are very keen to hear from people right across the District and I hope there will be a strong and interesting response.”

Topics that residents could raise include recycling and waste management, the Revitalising the River Ver project and the future of St Albans Museum and Gallery.

Concerns might also include car parking, air pollution, green transport or the District’s leisure centres.

The committee has also decided to look into the council’s plans to support local business recover from the impact of the Covid-19 pandemic.

To suggest a topic for review, residents, businesses or other organisations should email scrutiny@stalbans.gov.uk by noon on Tuesday 14 July.
