Franklin Park to expand resident outreach on proposed wireless infrastructure survey
Summary
Council members reviewed a draft community survey for a CCI wireless infrastructure proposal, agreed to revise language for clarity and to mail postcards to every household to ensure broad participation; a digital survey will be circulated by CityScape and staff will reconvene draft changes.
Franklin Park participants reviewed a draft community survey tied to a proposed CCI wireless infrastructure project and agreed to broaden outreach to include a mailed postcard to every residence alongside the digital questionnaire.
The discussion, presented as an update on the CCI Wireless Infrastructure Project, focused on survey format, plain-language wording and distribution. Staff reported a digital survey proposal from CityScape; members said some residents would prefer a shorter survey while others would want more detail. The group asked that survey language be simplified and that feedback be collected and incorporated before the survey is finalized and circulated to the council again for approval.
Council members and staff also recommended a two-pronged outreach approach: a CityScape-hosted digital survey plus a postcard mailed at the borough’s expense so households without reliable online access would be reached. Participants noted the postcard could include related community materials (one suggestion was to reference Humboldt Charter) and that a festival booth (scheduled June 26) could be used to promote the survey and gather additional responses. One participant said they would collect written feedback and forward edits to the draft so staff could revise and recirculate the survey for council review.
No formal motion or vote on the survey format or mailing was recorded in the transcript. Staff recorded that Susan (on the call) would receive feedback and update the draft, and the group agreed to place the revised survey on a future agenda for final consideration.
