A community survey was developed and distributed in April 2016 in an effort to engage the general public in the comprehensive plan.
The survey was primarily made available online (Survey Monkey), but printed copies were also distributed to the libraries throughout the County and municipalities were asked to spread the word through their newsletters, bulletin boards, and/or websites. The TCRPC website and social media (Twitter, Facebook and LinkedIn) were also used to make residents aware of the survey and the various means to respond.
A total of 613 responses were received that were well distributed from across the County. Over 200 respondents provided their email addresses to receive continuing information on the status of the planning effort.
The survey results (summary available here) helped refine the approach for the planning effort and identify the three primary areas of focus: enhancing our communities, protecting and enhancing the environment, and economic development. Specifically, some of the actions that residents would like to emphasize included:
