Important Update for the TV Re-Transmission

The Shire of Wongan-Ballidu thanks all residents who completed and returned the recent TV Reception survey. 550 surveys were issued through the Australia Post unaddressed mail service to residents of Wongan Hills. The survey closed on the 29th January 2019. 100 surveys were returned. The Shire recognises comments made by members of the public regarding the timing of the survey, however due to a sharp increase in the volume of complaints in a short period of time, the Shire determined that it would be best to issue the survey as rapidly as possible to assist in us reaching a better understanding of the full extent of the problem. The Shire was also unaware of the number of times that others were resetting the system manually. While the survey was being conducted, the Shire worked with our service contractors to troubleshoot the issue.
