Parramatta City Council’s Residents’ Panel
Parramatta City Council’s Residents’ Panel is a group of people from all walks of life who have volunteered to represent all sectors of our community in ongoing public consultations. The original target was to have enough persons equivalent to one per cent of the area’s population (1500 residents) and that the panel to be statistically valid and representative demographically and geographically of the population of the Parramatta Local Government Area. We have achieved this and would like to increase engagement to 3000 residents in due course.
The panel will be actively involved in providing information and advice to Council decisions. Panel members will receive feedback on how their input has been received and what were the outcomes . Updates to all consultations will be made via this website.
