Memorandum: Community, Culture and Events Committee

 

Taste of Tasmania - Community Survey

 

At the 9 January 2019 Community, Culture and Events Committee, it was resolved, inter alia that:

Acknowledging the significance and success of the Taste of Tasmania in 2018-19, its economic benefits to the state, noting the concerns and recommendations in the report of the Associate Director of City Economy, Tourism & Events marked as item 4.1 of the Closed Community, Culture and Events Committee 9 January 2019, and recognising the financial burden placed upon Hobart ratepayers to fund the Taste of Tasmania, before making a final decision the Council seek the following further information:

A statistically valid random survey of the Hobart community (ratepayers and residents) be undertaken with final questions drafted with the company carrying out the survey to ensure no bias.

A further report on the content of the survey be provided for consideration at a special meeting of the Community, Culture and Events Committee to be scheduled for 21 January 2019.

In response to the Committee’s decision that a survey of the Hobart community (ratepayers and residents) be undertaken, Myriad Research has been engaged to formulate the survey questions (see attached) as well as to undertake the survey of Hobart ratepayers and residents.

Mr Brian Correy, Executive Director at Myriad Research will be in attendance at the special Community, Culture and Events Committee meeting being held on 21 January 2019 to answer any questions elected members may have.

 

REcommendation

That:

1.      The attached draft Taste of Tasmania community survey as prepared by Myriad Research be endorsed by the Council for distribution to Hobart ratepayers and residents.

As signatory to this report, I certify that, pursuant to Section 55(1) of the Local Government Act 1993, I hold no interest, as referred to in Section 49 of the Local Government Act 1993, in matters contained in this report.
