Welcome to eConsult where you can view all our current, upcoming and completed consultations.
You can search or register according to any 'consultation topic' you are interested in. If you are unsure which topic your area of interest falls under, check the relevant headings on the council website (the tabs at the top of this page).
Many of the consultations rely on an online questionnaire to collect your views. Many use maps to convey information. If you use a screen reader or, for any reason, would like help accessing any of these features or any of the files within an individual consultation, or orientation as to what is on this system, please contact Dave Ostry, Consultation Officer by email or on 01275 888 762.
To take part in most consultations you will need to register on the site. If you have already registered on another part of eConsult (i.e. for general or Local Development Framework consultations) you do not need to re-register here. This registration does not ask any personal information beyond your email address. Registration takes a couple of minutes and offers you the chance to be automatically alerted by email to consultations according to your interests (e.g. cycle improvements or projects in e.g. Yatton).
Some consultations listed here will invite your participation while others are for selected audiences and listed here for information only.
Any personal information you provide when registering will be treated in line with our privacy policy (see our Terms and conditions).
