Maldon District Council – News Release
Have Your Say! There’s Still Time to Complete the Council’s
Residents and Business Survey
There is still time to complete the Council’s residents and business survey and be in with a chance to win one of two £50 vouchers as a thank you for taking part.
The annual Residents and Business Survey is available until Friday 25 November 2022.
Responses have been flooding in, but the Council is appealing for as many responses as possible. Getting views from across the whole District helps the Council to set its priorities and plans for the future, and to prioritise the services that meet people’s needs.
This is always important, but with rising energy bills looming and a cost-of-living crisis, the Council needs to know how best to support people and to understand what is causing most concern.
Councillor Mrs Penny Channer, Leader of Maldon District Council, said; “I am encouraging as many residents and businesses as possible to complete our annual survey by going to www.maldon.gov.uk/yourviews
“Gathering views directly from our community ensures that we are providing our services based on real feedback from the people who matter.
“In order to do that, we need lots of responses from across the District so please take a few moments to let us know what you think about this Council and our unique District.”
The survey is available until 25 November 2022 and can be completed by going to www.maldon.gov.uk/yourviews

Before the school holidays, Cllr Barwick attended Tolleshunt D’Arcy Primary School to find out what new piece of play equipment the children would like at the Recreation Ground. The children had a vote and opted for a rotating seesaw. The Parish Council has submitted an application to the Essex County Council Community Initiatives Fund for a grant towards the new piece and equipment and safety surfacing. Fingers crossed !!!

Maldon District Council to Provide Free Car Parking for NHS and Social Care Staff
In line with Government Pledge and with immediate effect, Maldon District Council will be offering free parking in all town centre car parks for health workers, social care workers and NHS volunteers.
This comes as the Local Government Secretary has agreed local Councils will also offer free car parking to all NHS workers and social care staff during the coronavirus outbreak.
Cllr Adrian Fluker, Leader of Maldon District Council, said; “We are all aware of the amazing contribution that NHS staff, Care workers and NHS volunteers across this District are making to help fight the Coronavirus. We are pleased, therefore, to join with Councils up and down the Country to offer this free parking concession and provide just one less thing for the staff to worry about when they need to shop for their groceries.”
Please display a compliment slip or similar, of the organisation you work for in the windscreen of your vehicle so that your vehicle can be identified as eligible of free parking.
