Helping the City of Ipswich to Make Resident Centric Decisions - Case Study
Despite immense variation in size, composition and character, Local Governments share one common responsibility – to act in the best interests of the community they are entrusted to represent. In pursuit of this goal, all Local Governments need to understand their community’s current and future needs to inform planning, monitor project delivery and identify areas for advocacy. The City of Ipswich is no different and, as such, decided it wanted to understand its residents on a deeper level to make certain that their 2021-26 Corporate Plan not only responded to the community’s needs of today, but that it was focussed on setting the course for a more prosperous longer term.
The critical questions without answers were:
1. What do our residents believe makes somewhere a good place to live, and how do they experience their local area in that regard?
2. How liveable is the City of Ipswich currently, and what needs to happen to advance quality of life?
3. What role does our residents’ demography, life-stage and location play inform their views, and how do we compare to others?
