14.0 What next?

Where do we go from here?

14.1 This Strategy will help to provide the context and lay out the path for future action, you will see there are 103 areas of activity outlined that cut across the organisation and its partner stakeholders working across the City. Within each area of activity there could well be a number of specific projects and actions. Some of these will be aspirational and long term where further research may be required before taking a particular course of action, others where opportunities for external funding may need to be sought. On the other hand, there will also be actions that are easily resourced and can be delivered in a short space of time.

14.2 The City Council and its Partners will be lobbying regional and national Governments for change it has an important role to play especially with providing the right national framework and funding to help support the delivery of our programmes for a sustainable zero carbon future at the city level.

14.4 We would like to hear your views about the proposed areas of activity and any ideas you may have for addressing what are sometimes complex difficult issues. We have designed a simple questionnaire which focuses on the corporate issues and the 5 pathways and would very much like to hear if you agree and which you see as the priorities for the future.

14.3 There will be specific action plans which will explain the actions the rationale and justification for each along with details of lead personnel resources, targets and milestones, partner organisations and ways in which we will measure their delivery the inputs, outputs and outcomes along with the quality of life measures they relate to in our proposed State of the City Report.
