The City of Campbell River recently launched its Citizen Satisfaction Survey with 1,600 surveys having been mailed to residents throughout Campbell River.
The survey lets residents share feedback on community services and helps guide future City plans.
Results will help with fall budget discussions, assist the City with meeting public consultation requirements for the proposed financial plan before it is adopted, and help staff make recommendations to Council.
The data will also provide Council with up-to-date information for decision making, which will help shape the facilities, services, and programs available to community members for years to come.
Mayor Kermit Dahl says while they hear from residents and community groups year-round on many topics, it can be hard to ensure the feedback reflects the whole community.
The Citizen Satisfaction Survey, Dahl says, gives them a snapshot of how they’re doing across local services, based on a statistically valid sample.
Residents who receive copies of the survey via direct mail are encouraged to take a few minutes to complete it and return it in the postage-paid, pre-addressed envelope supplied or using the QR code.
Addresses were selected on a random sample basis, as the City says it is important they receive responses from a wide range of community members in neighbourhoods across the city.
Residents who do not receive a copy of the survey in the mail are encouraged to complete the survey via the City’s online platform, by September 15th.
