SUBJ: CONTINUING COMMUNITY QUESTIONNAIRE

We discussed providing the general community opportunity for more detailed input on specific issues at our last meeting. One page flyers distributed via the local papers and at a locations around town can allow us to receive input for a few cents on the dollar compared to our more formal survey. During this next year it would be beneficial to provide questionnaires on a three or four of the issues we are working on.

RECOMMENDATION:

Provide three or four questionnaires during this year and evaluate this merits of this type outreach. Any questionnaire to be approved by council. The first questionnaire will be concerning large retail and wholesale buildings. I am preparing a draft on this subject that will be ready Monday for the committee of the whole and our regular meeting. Review and edit this draft Monday. Provide the public a finished questionnaire on this topic
