STR.3:5.2 - Public service: uncertainty or an unresolved value?

A municipal service considers shifting provision between two channels. In this example its responsible body may reallocate a limited budget, but a supplied protected-access obligation remains in force. Demand by channel is uncertain; whose access may be sacrificed is disputed.

The practitioner retains both issues. Existing demand evidence or conditional futures can inform capacity. The responsible value and authority decision governs allowable access consequences. A larger survey cannot decide that obligation’s force. If every proposed closure breaches it, the immediate return is the constraint and the search for a feasible configuration, not another demand estimate.
