Partnership Board.

We're developing new map-based reporting facilities so you will be able to show us exactly where something is that you want to tell us about. The first things
you will see on the site are streetlight and abandoned vehicle reports, and we'll follow up with much more.
We have added links to several popular social bookmarking sites to the foot of each page. You can use these sites to keep track of your favourite pages and
share links with your friends.
We are webcasting some Kirklees Council meetings, so you can watch these meetings in real time on your computer or mobile device.
We've created this new service in partnership with local developer Thumbprint Co-operative. We want to make it easier
for people to get things done in the place where they live and to encourage a sense of responsibility within local neighbourhoods.
