THE VALE of Glamorgan Council's improvement objectives for 2017-18 have been agreed, at a meeting of the council's cabinet on June 19.
Managing director Rob Thomas said: "The Council consistently seeks to provide a wide range of essential and good quality services to the residents of the Vale of Glamorgan, whilst at the same time striving to improve. We have a statutory duty to set specific improvement objectives each year and set targets against these objectives in order to drive improvements in areas that are important to us and citizens.
"Eight improvement objectives have been set this year, informed by the council’s corporate plan, our annual corporate self-assessment, our annual service planning process, reports from our external regulators, as well as consultations taken over the past two years."
Council leader John Thomas said: "I look forward to working with my colleagues, officers and key partners to deliver top quality and responsive services for the benefit of all our residents and communities."
This year's objectives and the reasoning behind these decisions are now available to view on the council's website.
Plans can also be accessed at all council office receptions and libraries. Members of the public are invited to propose new improvement objectives, or have their say on the current agenda by emailing improvements@valeofglamorgan.gov.uk.
