Residents of Logan unsurprisingly say Logan is a great place to live.
A survey run by council found most people rated quality lifestyle highly.
About 1600 people were surveyed in an effort to get a gauge on council performance, and you rated them 3.82 out of 5 in terms of overall service delivery.
Of those surveyed, 63% of residents were satisfied with the council’s response to the Covid-19 pandemic, while just 7% were dissatisfied.
City of Logan Mayor Darren Power said it was encouraging to see such a positive response from the local community.
“This city is made up of many cultures and lifestyles, and has a diverse range of needs when it comes to Council facilities and services,” Cr Power said.
“We have a strong history in Logan of providing good public amenities and services to our ratepayers and as our city expands, continuing to do this will be more important than ever.
“Data from this survey will help guide council’s decision-making processes in years to come.”
City Governance chair Councillor Lisa Bradley said participants in the 2020 survey ranged in ages and backgrounds.
The City of Logan was also found to be outperforming comparable Queensland councils in several key service areas including playgrounds, waste collection, and support for local business, animal management and water supply.
Traffic management on local roads was among these areas, with a marked improvement in customer satisfaction since 2018.
The survey also found that ratepayers were highly satisfied with Council’s recycling and reuse services, including the provision of four free tip vouchers.
Council-funded events and festivals were below par, but council said pandemic restrictions may have had something to do with that.
The Logan Listens: Residents’ Survey was conducted via telephone in two parts, with 801 responses collected for the Services & Facilities Survey and 802 responses collected for the Customer Services Survey.
