Survey: Design Skills and Resources in Local Authorities

The Place Alliance is conducting a short survey of urban design skills / resources within local planning authorities nationally, and how they have changed over the last five years.

This request is being made under the terms of the Freedom of Information Act 2000 on account of the difficulties we have had in the past in compiling an accurate and up to date contact list for chief planning officers in all Local Authorities in England, and I very much look forward to your response within 20 working days, as stipulated by the Act.

The information I am seeking can be found here:

https://www.surveymonkey.co.uk/r/PlaceAlliance_DesignSkills

and the survey should take no more than five to ten minutes to complete. 

As a thank you we will provide all participating authorities with the results of the survey which will also inform the work of the Place Alliance; a national movement for place quality.  If you would like to receive a copy, then please include a contact e-mail when requested to do so within the survey.
