PEOPLE and businesses in Brotton have received questionnaires to help an improvement study for the area.
About 400 information packs were distributed to homes on Monday by Redcar and Cleveland Borough Council.
Researchers specialising in housing issues will be carrying out detailed surveys of the houses in the Brotton Brickyards and Park areas of the town and interviewing residents. Other residents will be sent the information pack in the near future.
Chris Broughton, director of Fordham Research, of London, said: "We want to assure residents that all the information given will be treated confidentially.
"The council will only see the summaries of information for the final report."
It expects to present the report to the council in June.
