(Community Opinion Surveys/Community Satisfaction Surveys)
Community Surveys - Providing Information and Insight
for Increasing Effectiveness of and Satisfaction
with Municipal Governments and Services
"At a time when cities, towns, counties and states are under huge budget pressure, conducting community surveys/municipal surveys to gather opinions and perceptions from residents and businesses is more important than ever."
Why conduct a community survey
Municipal opinion surveys/municipal satisfaction surveys enable residents and business owners/leaders to share their perceptions and suggestions about municipal government, specific public issues, and the various services provided to them with their mayor/city manager and city/town council. The results of municipal satisfaction surveys can also be shared with residents and business owners/leaders.
Mayors and city/town council members often have to make important decisions with limited information and input from residents and businesses. Residents often do not have the time or inclination to attend town council meetings to express their opinions. Unfortunately, as countless mayors and city/town council members have experienced too late, the first opportunity constituents have to voice their opinion is in the voting booth.
Municipal surveys/municipal satisfaction surveys are designed to gather perceptions on many important issues and to aggregate the results to get the pulse of the city/town. Mayors and town councils are able to learn from community survey/municipal survey results and establish priorities and budgets based on feedback from residents, taxpayers and businesses. Municipal opinion surveys/municipal satisfaction surveys provide an easy, proactive and very cost-effective way for municipal government leaders to gather feedback and suggestions from and be more responsive to all of their constituents.
