Have your say, it’s your borough!
Ashford Borough Council wants to hear what local people think about the borough as a place to live, work and play - and where the authority should be spending taxpayers’ money. The council has created a short survey to identify which public services are most important to local people, and to give residents the chance to comment on how the council should spend its funds.
The views of people living and working in our rural communities is vitally important to the process, so please take the time to complete the survey online at:
www.ashford.gov.uk/haveyoursay
