The Village is once again partnering with ETC Institute, one of the nation’s leading firms in local government research, to conduct a community survey.
Randomly Selected Households A survey will be mailed to a random sample of 500 residents. If you receive one, we encourage you to take the time to complete it. Your input plays a vital role in helping the Village evaluate current services and shape future plans.
Didn’t Receive a Survey? We value feedback from all residents! An online version of the survey is available, giving everyone an opportunity to share their perspectives. Take the survey today.
Thank you for helping us make informed decisions that reflect the needs and priorities of our community.
