Let's Talk current surveys
Your views are really important to us, which is why we regularly launch Let's Talk surveys.
Once a consultation has ended, we analyse the results and compile a report. This can be used in a number of ways, depending on the service area.
Many of our consultations are used to help our councillors make key decisions. The results usually accompany a report on a key decision, and our councillors take account of your views before making a final decision.
Your feedback also helps us to improve our services and identify new ideas and ways of doing things.
If you would like to find the results from previous surveys, please visit our Let's Talk results page.
In the table available you can find a list of all of the surveys we are currently running. Just click on the one that you're interested in to find out more and let us know your views.
If you would like us to let you know every time we launch a survey, please visit the Let's Talk Panel page to find out more and sign up.
If you have any questions, or would like a paper copy, just let us know by getting in touch.

Planning consultations
Chichester Local Plan Main Modifications consultation - 10 April to 29 May 2025
The Chichester Local Plan was submitted to the government's Planning Inspectorate for examination on 3 May 2024, and public examination hearings were held during October and November 2024.
Earlier this year, we received a letter that detailed the Inspectors' initial findings and recommended the way forward. The letter identified some wording changes, or 'Main Modifications', that are needed to make the plan 'sound' so that it is ready to be considered for adoption.
We are now undertaking a very specific consultation on these Main Modifications. In line with the government's examination process, residents and businesses should only comment on the modifications being proposed for the plan and not on other parts of the plan.
The public consultation will run for six weeks, between 10 April and 29 May 2025, and people can access the consultation - and a full list of the Main Modifications - by visiting The Local Plan examination - main modifications consultation web page.
