Customer Charter and Complaints Management Framework

Public exhibition is now closed

Background

Through collaboration and engagement, Central Coast Council and the community have co-designed the Water and Sewer Customer Charter and Complaints Management Framework to ensure the services we deliver align with our customers' values.

The Customer Charter specifically highlights:

  • our standard of service to you
  • your expectations as a customer
  • how you can help us to help you
  • mutual rights and obligations

The Complaints Management Framework covers:

  • council's commitment to customer complaints
  • how we handle complaints
  • our escalation and response process

As part of our ongoing commitment to improve customer outcomes related to Water and Sewer, we collected your feedback on the draft documents.

To progress to our current stage of improving our services, we have been fortunate enough to listen to residents and businesses share what they value most about their water and sewer services in various mediums. More details of this can be found on our 'Improving your water and sewer services' page.
